The hotel is really European level. You come to the beach - they already bring you a sunbed, lay a towel, give you a drink in your hand, put an ashtray on the table. Everywhere: in every bar, in a restaurant, on the beach, by the pool. The staff is tactful (except for the massage therapist), everyone smiles, addresses: "Sir. " You don't have to run after anyone - everything will be done for you. 60-70% of foreigners, therefore English is welcome, therefore Germans sunbathe without a top (when they are over 60 it is not aesthetically pleasing), therefore they come across trances, homosexuals, lesbians and other European evil spirits.
The food is amazing, even beautifully prepared. Everything is expensive around up to plates, forks. We dined at Ossiano there is no buffet - everyone serves what you order from the menu. We liked Italian Bella and Chinese Mandarin restaurants - bottled wine, food 5+. In Bella, he celebrated his birthday - a cake to the song of the waiters and clapping of the hands of all the vacationers - a common standard, but nice.
For $ 10, the rooms became even larger and more spacious + a folding sofa.

Local alcoholic drinks are not very good - buy for money in a bar or stock up in Dutik. We drank a free martini in the evening and a cold beer in the afternoon. They also make great milkshakes and brew good coffee.
Of the minuses:
1) no animation - boring. But to whom that - I slept. Although there is a bus to the club (in Hurghada), we did not like it there and it took a long time to go.
2) Wi-fi sucks, if it gets caught, then there is no speed at all. Although there is a dedicated line in the rooms - I did not try it.
3) when communicating with the staff, you need to understand that English is not as native for them as it is for us - when ordering a restaurant, double-check whether you have understood you correctly.
4) SPA is obscenely expensive - $400
