Третий раз в Sultan Gardens Third time at Sultan Gardens

We recently returned, there were 10 days, we flew through Pegasus, there were no comments, although the return flight was delayed by 5.5 hours, but we warned about this in advance.
I will not repeat other reviews and describe the hotel, I will only write about my impressions compared to last year.
So, we flew to this hotel for the third time, naturally counting on some kind of preferences, as someone wrote in a review, such as accommodation in a good room, a fruit basket, etc. Nothing of the sort happened.
At first they gave us a room that was not quite suitable for us (facing the sunny side), after half an hour of conversations at the reception, they changed it to suit us. True, they did not demand money for a replacement.

The territory is still pleasing to the eye, a lot of greenery, gardeners are working tirelessly, the only caveat is the repair work of the facade near the main entrance to the hotel (by the way, it is closed, the entrance is through the side door), but this does not bother and does not interfere with rest.
Food quality, the assortment has not deteriorated, in my opinion, though they don’t give dried apricots for breakfast anymore (it used to be), the restaurant on the second floor is closed, everyone eats downstairs, maybe because of not 100% occupancy of the hotel, although outwardly there are a lot of people , the impression of a half-empty hotel does not produce. As before, I did not see queues in the restaurant, there is always enough food for everyone.
There are always places on the beach, the maximum occupancy is -40-50%, there are no more free sunbeds near the pools after 9-00. Before lunch, it often stormed, they hung a black flag and did not let them into the sea. But this lasted no more than 1-1.5 hours. We swam along the entire reef, to the neighboring pontoon, no one restricts, no whistles. A waiter walked along the beach and offered someone what to bring from drinks, this had not been observed before.
Animation, in short, not bad.
The contingent of vacationers has changed slightly, there are noticeably fewer Italians and more from the CIS. About half are British.
In general, we are satisfied with the rest, everything was at a decent level.
