Until 2018, the hotel was called Melia Sinai . . in the early reviews, everything was not bad, then apparently the management changed. So . . We settled quickly, got a room on the first floor by the pool, the sea is within walking distance, the territory is well-groomed, I liked the location of the hotel. Entering the sea is best from a pontoon, because if from the shore, then there are stones and frequent low tides on the shore. The reef to the left of the pontoon is amazing, even yachts moor for diving. The hotel itself is "tired", plumbing in the rooms, which has not seen service for a long time, tiles in places in mold, furniture . . well, like furniture, you can spend the night. Room service to put it mildly one name. Towels are not always changed, about mopping I can say that it is done only after the left dollar, the bed is made, a bottle of water is added every day. Food - The dining room is very tired, you can sit both inside and outside the terrace. The constant struggle for plates, forks, hot water for tea ..
sometimes it’s not there, sometimes it’s not there. All this is given out in small portions, and each time a feeling of humiliation. Lots of sweets to choose from. Pool bar, lobby bar. As always, local alcohol, which is impossible to drink in its pure form, instead of juice "Yupi, powder with water. " The bartenders at the bars are rude, who move only after "give me a dollar, give me two", and they demand money insolently. The struggle for beer is constant . . They say allegedly no, come later or even tomorrow, but for a dollar it appears from somewhere. But the offering is quickly forgotten)) Special attention to the bartender VaLeed, he is usually at the pool bar. Animators are weak, from the word at all. In general, a hotel for those who expect a beautiful reef, for those who are indifferent to bars, fun, who just want to sunbathe and swim in the sea.
Perhaps until 2018, the approach to service and staff was different, now you have to Survive in a hotel, in the struggle for forks, water and even a glass of Pepsi, which appears after $ 1.


The only thing that brightened up the rest is that we ended up in this hotel by a MIRACLE, as we took the Roulette 5 * tour, and settled in Royal Paradise initially (this is a different story), but thanks to our travel agent and a few hours on suitcases we came here, the tour cost 400 $ for two. People in Melton paid from $800.

We went to SOHO for $ 4, back the same way (bargained), but not at the hotel, but went upstairs from the hotel, and caught taxis and minibuses. (It takes 5-7 minutes to go to Soho).

We managed to get to the OLD Market in four for $ 4 in one direction (And this is somewhere around 25 km).

Bargain on transport, as you will travel for 10-15 dollars)), bargain on souvenir and other shops. Trade up to 500%.
