Сегодня стало по-настоящему страшно... Today is really scary...

For those who are traveling for the first time, the hotel should be pleasant. I personally am in Egypt for the 2nd time, last year I was in Hurghada, in the 5th. To be honest, I don’t feel much difference between the 5th and 4th. Before that, I was in Turkey 2 times, I also have something to compare with. The overall impression is normal, if you go with the mood to relax, and not look for flaws. It's just that the service in Egypt has never been classified as first-class (this is not only my impression), so you need to treat these moments as their national characteristics. Be friendly, smile, give tips sometimes and you will see that you will also be treated differently. And of course, they will respond to rudeness with rudeness (ignore you, pretend that they don’t understand, etc. ). I am simply amazed by our people who go to the Crimea, give the same money (sometimes more) for much worse conditions and are not indignant, they consider bad conditions on the beaches, prices, etc. to be normal, but when they get to Egypt they want some special suites. Of course, everything I wrote is just my personal impressions, but today I was horrified by much more serious things. . On the beach of our hotel on December 01.2010, a shark attacked 2 tourists. Personally, I did not see this attack, since I came within 5 minutes after the incident, but the situation is not standard, 2 people were injured, according to rumors, one of the victims was left without a hand. The beach is closed today. It's a shame that they did not consider it necessary to warn us about the shark attack that happened the day before in another hotel (whose name I don't know). Today I saw only in the Internet that 5 people were injured in two days. Gentlemen, this is a serious situation, I personally saw a lot of bloody footprints today and heard this story from those who were in the water at the time of the incident. I don’t want to scare anyone, but I just warn you that be very careful, before the information appears that this shark was caught, it’s better not to swim in the sea. The pool at the hotel is good. Take care of yourself.
