Из хорошего в отеле только вид из окна The only good thing about the hotel is the view from the window.

To begin with, my family is extremely picky, and in Egypt we are only the second time. Moreover, last year they were in the top three, this year they chose the top five. Prices for our dates were high, as for Egypt in a pandemic, about 800 bucks for a couple. It was possible to catch burning ones cheaper, but I liked the hotel based on video reviews on YouTube, of which there are a lot, and we decided to go here.
Just a reservation, in general, we liked the rest, but this is not the merit of the hotel, but the ability to enjoy the very presence of the sea, coral, palm trees and flowers))) And now about the hotel.
1) ENDLESS queues in the dining room. The first day we were in shock. Lunch starts at 2:30 pm, and we had the imprudence to come to the beginning and this is a mistake. We stood in lines for 40 minutes, everyone was angry, pushing, there was no place... trash in general. Dinner was the same story. You can get around this by coming an hour later, there are fewer people and it’s already bearable to be there, but of course this affects the number of some dishes, they often run out, but it’s a matter of choice: queues or a little less variety.

In general, for food: you won’t starve, chicken comes in different forms for each meal, a couple of times there were beef cutlets and fish. Of the side dishes, pasta in different variations, rice and sometimes potatoes. Salads, pastries. All the variety that is in the reviews and that people managed to complain about is missing. The menu has been shortened by 3 times for sure. All the kitchen staff give out, put a little, you need to beg for more, but still they give out sparingly.
Salt pepper you need to go ask yourself, with napkins the story is even worse, they give one, maximum 2 per hand. Devices also need to be taken by ourselves (if they did not come to the beginning).
About restaurants declared for visiting a separate topic) Chinese total darkness. We asked to bring a repeat of the wine 3 times, all past) nods, leaves and nothing happens. We ate rice with chicken (it doesn't taste bad in general) and went to the main restaurant to have a dessert, since there are no desserts on the menu.
Italian is better, but you can’t count on wow either)
2. Rooms are always given at first not very well, mostly on the first floor and somewhere in the wilds. This issue was resolved with 10 bucks (they wanted 15), they bargained for 10. Then they got a chic room overlooking the pool and the sea. Everything is clear. I liked the number.
3. The pool was terribly disappointing. The water level is waist deep. The declared depth is 155 cm, but in fact it is about 110-115 cm. We approached this issue several times, nothing has changed. They said that the hotel has only been working for 10 days (apparently this is an argument) and so far it will be so. That is, we can chat in a puddle...

4. Join's guide is hellish. Rude and vile, vparivaet and lies. I'll tell you right away: you don't have to go to a meeting with him! We went only because we wanted to go on a tour, we came to listen to what options there are, but this year the prices are simply cosmic. As a result, he sold us absenteeism on a yacht for 25 bucks per person, an unusual type, and, according to him, a VIP. Three-story with a seafood lunch, plus my mother had an anniversary, promised a cake on a yacht. As a result, an ordinary small yacht, with completely loosened railings, no seafood and cake. Plus said that since we were leaving at night (before check-out), they would collect rations for us (as all normal hotels do, and even the three in which we were last year). Finally a circus. We arrive at the reception, no one knows anything, as a result, this receptionist went to the dining room to find out, after 10 minutes they took us there, they put out a bowl of rolls and a tray of cheese, plus a plastic container, and that's it, do what you want, no film, no bags... in general, everything is on a level, like everything in this hotel...
5. The territory is tired. The greenery that is less than half in the reviews. Lots of dry. Apparently no one followed the territory during quarantine. All the arches are overgrown, the grass is dry, the bushes have grown, everything is not neat. Few sunbeds. You need to take them at 5 in the morning.
At the bars, everything always ends, especially the bar by the sea. The third bar, where snacks and burgers are announced for lunch, is completely closed.
From the good: the sea and corals) Plus, there are very few people in the shops, in Soho and in the Old Town, they bargain well and pay more attention to each tourist, but this is rather just in favor of a trip to Egypt during this period))
Bottom line: if you are looking for a vacation for $ 700-800, I advise you to look for another hotel. You can go here only for 500-600 dollars, just for the sake of the sea itself. Because the hotel itself disappointed in everything.
