We rested from 29.09. 21-09.10. 21 ($1200).
Chose this hotel based on reviews.
And very much regretted it.
Upon arrival, within half an hour we were settled, since we arrived at 5 in the morning.
Building 26, room 338. We were taken to the reception room.
Entering the room, we just *ofigeli* from what he saw.
Starting from the tiles on the floor that were not in half of the room to the bathroom where everything is rusty, broken, dirty, dusty.
There were no towels, no soap, no shampoo.
Only t. paper, and that was very crumpled in a roll.
The TV is square and didn't work.
Everything in the room is shabby, dirty and old, very old.
There is absolutely nothing good about staying in this room.
Naturally, from what he saw, it was decided to go to the reception and change the number, which we did.

As it turned out later, this is their scheme. This was reported to us by a vacationer. First they will settle in a room where it is impossible to live, and then come to them to give $ 10 and you will be given another room.
And so it was. We gave $10 and were given another room. With a phrase, call back from a new number and let us know if we like it or not.
Second number: building 4, room 226 (second line from the sea).
The room is old, but in a more or less residential condition.
Room for 3-.
The bathroom naturally has rust and plaque, but compared to the first one, it was a normal room.
The toilet didn't flush. 5 times you need to repeat the procedure and then not a fact).
There were towels, mini chemistry too, but it's better not to use them.
We always take it separately.
Flat TV - works. The air conditioner also works.
Very small ants appeared out of nowhere in the room, bathroom. But we got through it. )
You can live.
FOOD is a different story!
Local alcohol is certainly not worth attention at all.
At the moment, only one "restaurant" was working, and there were three of them in the hotel. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were held in the “restaurant” near the reception according to the system: you stand in line and the chef gives out this dish in portions for one person. But these are not all such cooks, you tell some to give more or more, then they gave it.
There are 4 snack bars on site, but only two were open.
The one closer to the sea (there was nothing usual: a small portion of salad, 2-3 pieces of french fries, a kebab, a tortilla, for some reason they didn’t always bring dessert, a small biscuit, everything is like for a child, for an adult man you need two portions). And the one that is closer to the pools there is a "burger". Drinks will be provided if requested.
The food itself is very simple, like in Egypt in general.
Breakfast: yoghurts, coffee, tea, cocoa, their rice pudding, sausages, cheese, such as feta, flour. There was nothing special.

Lunch: potatoes, pasta, chicken, vegetables, soups, squid, semi-raw and not peeled shrimp gave out 2 pcs / person. They don't give anymore. Small langoustine, beans, stewed vegetables, grilled, rice. In general, everything would not be bad if everything was ready, and not half raw.
For seafood a separate description. They are disgusting!!!
It feels like all the seafood got spoiled first, and then they decided to cook it. Rotten vegetables were the most common.
The feeling is rotten and rotten so-so.
Dinner: the side dishes are the same and the readiness is the same.
The only thing that could be eaten was fish on the grill - red.
But she was given only on the first day of rest, then no one saw her).
Tuna on the grill (it was possible to eat).
From cola drinks, there were no fantas.
Only UPI juices, which are impossible to drink, and coffee with milk, tea.
If you want cola, fanta or sprite for dinner or lunch, then you need to take it in advance at the bar.
And there was an interesting fact. Most vacationers had glasses of 0.5 volume. As it turned out, there is a shop on the territory of the hotel where you can buy 6 pieces of large glasses for $ 1 and every day you can walk with them and pour yourself drinks at the bars.
Sweets: standard, but it seems that in this hotel everything is "second hand".
Of the 7 Ala Carte, only two worked at the moment. And as they explained to us, the restaurant will have free food, but only if you buy at least 1 drink for $5.
There are 4 pool bars, only 2 were open.
There are 8 pools, only one panoramic did not work.
The territory at first glance is large, and this is probably the only plus of the hotel.
The beach is sandy, the entrance to the sea is only from the pontoon.
The sunbeds are old and can be found broken, as well as the umbrellas.
Mattresses can be found torn.
Stained towels.
The tiles in the pools are chipped off, and they are just lying on the bottom of the pools.
Armchairs in the "restaurant" in the "*ram" and this is in the literal sense. They are never washed.
There are a lot of crows, a lot. On the terrace itself there is a staff who drives away crows from food with a racket if people brought one plate and went for another.

But personally, we had it so that we brought a plate, this man told us that he would look after that the crows would not steal anything. But when he came a second time, he was not at the table and the crow calmly stole a piece of chicken from the plate.
Since then, we have only sat inside.
Wi-Fi only in the lobby, upon check-in they give an individual password for each.
The toilets near the beach and in the lobby are not cleaned every day.
It was clearly visible.
Either there is no so-called paper, or there is a lot of rubbish, dirty. And it was exactly three days in a row.
The staff itself is smiling, kind, sociable.
In the evenings, the smell of sewage is very strong.
On the 6th day of rest, a second "restaurant" opens closer to the sea.
There is only breakfast and dinner.
Ah, yes! There was always a queue for restaurants.
People could stand for 15-20 minutes.
The second restaurant had a buffet. The cooks gave out only an omelet in the morning and grilled fish or meat and pasta in the evening, everything else was open to everyone.
the food was exactly the same, but: it was ready, not rotten, not rotten, which was generally surprising.
+ it had more variety of sweet and always had olives)
This was not the case at the first restaurant.
But there were no normal drinks either, you had to bring yourself, or ask the waiters to bring cola or fanta.
We rested only near one pool.
Before breakfast, you had to take a seat, otherwise you won’t find it later.
And so did everyone. We were very lucky that it was near our pool that there were fewer people for almost the entire vacation, for the last two days the hotel was full, and then the vacationers were just lying on the sand.
There was sand near one of the pools)
On the last day of our holiday, we decided to clean our pool.
It’s just full-fledged, before that they just removed the leaves and dates from the sand, since it was near ours that there was sand.
But not early in the morning and not at night, as is usually done in other hotels, but from 10:00 to about noon. And you can't swim.
And at the same moment one cleans the pool, and the management, there were three people, just yells at him.

Of course, we did not understand what was there and how, but we are resting, we came to rest and we are not pleased that they are yelling at each other in front of us.
It was unpleasant to listen to them op.
And in summary: the hotel is not worth the money at all!
And you should not rest in it for any money!
They need to renovate the entire hotel!
Or close it forever!
