I'll try to be objective. Before the trip I read a lot, but now I saw it with my own eyes.
The overnight flight on 11/25/2018 was spectacular. We arrived by train to Kyiv at 23:00 and took a taxi to Zhuliany. A girl from a travel agency immediately called and said that we should go to Zhuliany, but the flight would be from Boryspil due to weather conditions and we would be transported there free of charge. Time doesn't change. The fog was such that the planes could not be seen. That is exactly what happened. Join up worked great! No problem at all. The flight went perfectly, despite the terrible fog on takeoff. On board they feed for money, and drinks, juices, tea and coffee are free. Flight 3 hours 40 minutes.
People began to change into flip flops on board : ) In Sharm it is +23 in the morning. We arrived at the hotel around 9, we were put on bracelets and offered to have breakfast, and then come up and if the rooms are ready, we will be accommodated. At 11:00 we were in the room.

Our rooms were standard No. 5148 and 5149. The hotel has only two buildings with standard rooms. Our number 5.
What can I say... Lucky that it's not summer. Convenient and at the same time terrible that they go outside to the inside road. It’s convenient because it’s fenced off with bushes, no one walks there and doesn’t see you, but there are armchairs and tables, it’s terrible, because generators of something are working around the clock 50 meters away. Constant hum. Good one. To open the window in the morning to breathe - terribly uncomfortable. They wanted to change, but were too lazy to drag things. At the reception they made fools out of themselves, for the first time, they say, we hear. This has already been discussed in the reviews here. In the summer, in the heat, when there is no way without open windows, this will be a real problem.
The rooms are very average. Almost no housekeeping. But this is Egypt. Knowing this, I took a rag from the house, wet wipes for Domol cleaning and wiped all the surfaces, handles, shelves, toilet bowl. Be prepared for the fact that there is a little mold in the shower, the washbasin is slightly clogged, the water does not pass well, the appeal to the cleaners gave only that he poked in the drain with his finger, tried to clean it : ) .
The TV shows 1+1 and several Russian channels. We wrote a statement at the reception to include even more Ukrainian ones - there was no reaction. You need to write to everyone so that they move.
Water 1.5 liters per room was given daily, tea, milk and sugar in sticks were added. Without a dollar, they didn’t spin towel freaks, they begged for money. But it is everywhere in Egypt, they live from it.
Well, what is there to bother with the room!... The main thing is summer in December, the purest warm sea, no wind on the beach, air, good weather... By the way, coral slippers are NOT NEEDED in this hotel. Sand.

They fed normally, there were once crabs, quails, fish, duck, lamb... yes, everything is fine with food. How to order a restaurant was told by the guide at the first meeting. Booked the same day with no problems. We sat there for half an hour, there was nothing more to do there. The food is no better than in the main restaurant.
Old Town (Old Market) and Soho Square are two free tours. We went and liked everything. They also took a full-day excursion called "Bomb" - $ 75 per person. There was a ship, scuba diving, a seafood lunch on the ship (crab soup and two shrimp), then a quad bike safari, then a camel ride and 50 grams of tea from the Bedouins. They shot back in one day : ) Arafats are needed. You can buy at the hotel for a price of up to 3-5 dollars - it's expensive. You can in the Old Town, you can be brought to a small market on the way to the excursion.
Take towels for the ship. It's better not to rent beach shoes and take them, because it's windy in the sea, My husband even got sick.
What else . . One of the pools near the elevator to the beach is heated and the water in the sea is like heated : ) in other pools it is cold.
Ask if you have any questions.
Would you still go to this hotel? Yes, I would go.
