We rested at the hotel at the end of July, arrived for 10 days. Upon arrival at 13:00, left things at the reception and went to lunch. Check-in at 14:00. I immediately alerted that they gave a bottle of water 1.5 liters for 10 days !!!! ! That is, no one will replenish. For $1 buy in the Old City. The average hotel staff (reception, waiters, bartenders at the hotel, room cleaning, area cleaners) is Super!! ! Well done!! ! They do everything to brighten up all the negativity of this holiday.

We rested at the hotel at the end of July, arrived for 10 days. Upon arrival at 13:00, left things at the reception and went to lunch. Check-in at 14:00. I immediately alerted that they gave a bottle of water 1.5 liters for 10 days !!!! ! That is, no one will replenish. For $1 buy in the Old City.
The average hotel staff (reception, waiters, bartenders at the hotel, room cleaning, area cleaners) is Super!! ! Well done!! ! They do everything to brighten up all the negativity of this holiday.
Now in order:
1) The room is an ordinary old room with old furniture, well, nothing. This was to be expected. It was good that there was constantly hot and cold water, the air conditioner and refrigerator worked fine. Room cleaning every day. Changed towels. They left chocolate instead of a dollar.
2) The hotel is old but well maintained. Mopping floors, tending plants. No questions.
Of the 100% living, 30% Russia + Kazakhstan, 70% Egyptians.
Perhaps they need to reconsider the concept and make a hotel for their own!
3) Pool!!!
-once for all time were bought up and all. A terrible allergy began on the body, at first they thought it was from the sun, out of habit. But no, it turns out they pour 3 buckets there !!!!!! ! bleach.
So not only do the Egyptian women wash their rags in it every morning, but also when their child crap, they stuck their underpants there. Only after the scandal did they agree to drain the water, clean it and collect new water.
4) Beach - do not believe the pictures on the site, these are old photos from 6 years ago. Filthy!!!
On the right there are boats with pills, bananas, etc. - there is no fence. All the locals are brought there, it turns out that everyone goes to the beach.
On the left, there are submarines of pleasure boats, since there is a fence.
It turns out that there is practically nowhere to swim. But I don't want to either. The water is dirty, stains from kerosene and the stench is chemical from this. In general, lie down on the beach and breathe in iodine, well, it definitely won’t work in this place.
On the 4th day we started walking to the wild beach near the Ministry of Transport, 15 minutes from the hotel. There, though, they bought and saw fish and swam and breathed in the sea air.
5) Food and drinks!!!! ! I recommend, if possible, to bring alcohol with you and food that does not spoil too. We went constantly hungry, even the girls constantly wanted to eat.
Breakfast is a queue for scrambled eggs (the size of a tea saucer), falafel, cabbage. ALL!! ! There is nothing else to eat.
Lunch - sometimes they gave fresh cucumber, 4 types of salads with cabbage (white, purple), no soup))), rice and pasta in abundance, they gave meat and fish, but a little bit, when you ask for more, they say that everything, but that's not enough for everyone.
Dinner is the same. Only a kilometer long queue to put a spoonful of rice, vegetables and knock out a piece of meat and fish (the size of a matchbox)
Fruits - 6 days - melon, 3 days - orange, once they gave grapes.
I also want to tell you about 2 personalities of the hotel!
Bartender Ahmed works on the beach, skinny all the time in a pink shirt. Rude, impudent, you can’t beg for a drink. He constantly sniffed hashish with us and the priority is the locals, who were brought to ride bananas and pills - they sell and serve water, coffee, and drinks.
Hotel manager Said, an elderly man with glasses. With an eternally dissatisfied face that we eat a lot, drink a lot, and in general that we arrived) He never smiles, does not say hello, arrogantly walks and looks so that they don’t take an extra piece once again.
The positive points are, good company, close to the Old Town, where they went to eat fruits and seafood, and a wild beach, where they swam, watched fish and enjoyed their vacation.
But I will never come here again!

1. We arrived at the check-in at 14.00. Immediately, without wearing bracelets, we were sent to dinner. Despite the fact that it was not the beginning of dinner, the food was in sufficient quantity. From our bus, 20 people checked into this hotel. Despite the fact that the hotel is the most extreme, we were dropped off by 4 out of 7 hotels.

From our bus, 20 people checked into this hotel. Despite the fact that the hotel is the most extreme, we were dropped off by 4 out of 7 hotels.
2. No one asked for money to improve the room, we got it on the second floor with a side view of the sea and the pool.
3. The number of rooms needs renovation, but in general everything is ok. Cleaning in a day. The bedding is white, new, the pillows are new. Hot water all the time, air conditioning works. Soap, shampoo, toilet paper were added at each cleaning. Cleaning quality. There are enough outlets in the room.
4. The hotel area is small, but very cozy. There are few rooms, there were no queues in the dining room. Vacationers 90% Ukraine. At the end of the check-in, we already got acquainted with all the vacationers
5. The staff is polite, unobtrusive, they never asked for money.
6. There is a beach, but we swam on it 1 time on the day of arrival. Very petty. Sun loungers are all working, towels are clean. We went to the beach on the wild right, there is beauty, the reef is alive, a lot of fish, rays, puffer....
7. Food is monotonous, but in sufficient quantity. Fruits are always guava, melon, pomegranate, sometimes tangerines. Meat beef, veal liver, sausages, chicken, fish. In the evening, once every 3 days, grill chicken, kebab, fish. Fresh vegetables cucumber, iceberg, radish, carrot, sweet pepper salads. Eggplant in different forms. All sorts of sweets. Breakfast cereal with milk. Fried eggs or scrambled eggs are fried right away, feta, you fry your own toast, jam is different every day. In general, the food is monotonous, but tasty and not boring. From drinks tea, coffee, yupi, hibiscus, hot milk. At the bar, beer and local alcohol, cola, sprite.
8. Excellent location of the hotel. The old town is 5 minutes walk, along the way there is a supermarket with fixed prices and an unobtrusive seller. I will attach a photo of this store. The wild beach is within easy reach, on excursions we were picked up last and dropped off first, which is very convenient - no need to circle around Sharm by bus.
Summarizing the above, I want to say that we will return to this hotel again and again. I don't believe a single negative review. Thanks Tour Kharkiv and agent Marina for choosing a hotel within our modest budget.

The hotel was recommended by a travel agent; bribed that it is located in a warm bay and there is a gentle entrance to the sea without a pontoon (not all of us are divers). Well, the price, as for this time, is divine. 1. Settlement. We arrived at the hotel at 14, so we checked in immediately. The next day, the people who arrived in the morning sat at the reception all morning; I don't know what time they were eventually settled.

The hotel was recommended by a travel agent; bribed that it is located in a warm bay and there is a gentle entrance to the sea without a pontoon (not all of us are divers). Well, the price, as for this time, is divine.
1. Settlement. We arrived at the hotel at 14, so we checked in immediately. The next day, the people who arrived in the morning sat at the reception all morning; I don't know what time they were eventually settled.
Upon check-in, they give a one and a half liter bottle of water (and they don’t give it anymore). True, they are allowed to collect water from the cooler in the dining room.
2. Number. Spacious, with a loggia; we even got a sea view (did not pay anything extra). Inside the room everything is moderately old, but works properly. If the "Do Not Disturb" sign is not posted, they clean it every other day; thanks for the dollar, but the swans are not twisted.
3. Territory. She's practically non-existent. Two-story building, swimming pool (cold water), between them a picturesque path with palm trees and shrubs; It is customary to go for a walk to the Old Town (it is nearby). You can sit on the summer terrace opposite the dining room, but during the day there are flies, and in the evening there are mosquitoes. Regarding mosquitoes: I strongly advise you to take with you all the anti-mosquitoes that you have.
4. Nutrition. As they often say, "you won't go hungry. " It is difficult to blame for a special variety, but a couple of times there was meat on the grill (chicken and lyulya). I also liked that it was not necessary to run straight to the opening of the dining room, everything was replenished as needed.
5. Bars. The most popular is in the dining room. Open during lunch and dinner. Available on the beach and by the pool. For some reason, almost no one goes to the main bar at the reception. They say that there you need to clarify what is paid and what is not.
6. Animation. She is, she has a place to be on the beach, she is very active. There is no children's animation.
7. Internet. Completely missing. Even at the reception. They offer for 5 ye for 7 days some kind of access to Wi-Fi, which will work only at the reception (and sometimes it won’t). I HIGHLY do not advise you to contact local craftsmen with this problem (there are some in the shop at the exit from the hotel). Do not be stingy and buy a card at the airport, and if you don’t have time, then only at the local branch of Vodafone (20-25 ye).
8. Beach. Big, sandy, clean. Lots of loungers. All the trouble is in the sea. The point is not even that it is shallow here, but that this part of the bay is essentially a parking lot for ships (with all the ensuing consequences; and their engines are by no means electric). No joy. On the neighboring beaches are not allowed everywhere. Far from the wild beach. Do not believe that it takes five minutes to go there.
9. Entertainment. Guest artists performed a couple of times in the evening. On other evenings - a disco (not popular). Young people go to have fun in the Old City. By the way, about the Old Town: there is a big market and sooner or later you will be visited by the idea to bring (especially in winter) fresh strawberries. Better to refrain - throw away half of the house, checked. You can take a mango (weighted by 10-20 percent).
10. Eviction. The last day especially spoiled the impression of the hotel: at 12 they cut off the bracelets and that's it, like, you're already nobody here. For the fourth time in Egypt, but I have never seen such pettiness. And they also delayed our flight, we sat at the reception for five hours, not like tea and coffee, no one offered a glass of water.
Total. The hotel, as for me, corresponds to the declared four. Suitable for families with small children, pensioners. Fans of diving, snorkeling and the sea in general - not here. I do not regret that I chose this hotel, but I will not return here again.

We stayed as a couple in this hotel at the beginning of November. On some sites it is indicated that this is a 3 * hotel, on others 4 *.

We stayed as a couple in this hotel at the beginning of November. On some sites it is indicated that this is a 3 * hotel, on others 4 *. My opinion is that this is 4 *, and in my review I will tell you about all the pros and cons of the hotel.
1. Let's start with a number. A room with an old but good repair, it has all the conditions: a comfortable double bed, good lighting, a balcony, hot water in the shower. The room has a safe and refrigerator. The only negative of the room is the noisy air conditioner, sometimes it was difficult to fall asleep with it. View from the balcony - on the territory of the hotel.
2. Cleaning in the room took place every other day, it was carried out with high quality, all towels, soap, napkins, etc. were changed regularly.
3. We were completely satisfied with the food. We were not hungry, there was a variety of food, every day there was meat and fish, there was meat on the grill, they give the supplement without any problems. And the dessert is just amazing. Every day there were delicious puffs and biscuits, they buy them or make them themselves - I don’t know, but they are simply unreal! You can pour cola / sprite / fanta / orange juice / coffee with milk, all drinks are no worse than ours.
As for alcohol - they pour their local alcohol, which, frankly, is not of the best quality. If you are a drinker, then it is better to take it with you or buy it in duty free.
There are two bars on the territory of the hotel, and one more on the beach, where alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks are poured. I saw a comment that alcohol is poured a little, one drink - in one hand. I personally took 4 glasses of wine at once and no one said anything.
4. The location of the hotel is just wonderful. It is on the first line, so the sea is across the road. And at the same time, the hotel is within walking distance from the Old City, where you can go for a walk, see the incredible beauty of the mosque, go shopping, etc.
5. There was an animator who called himself Misha, a very cool guy, everyone liked him. Unobtrusive, and at the same time very positive, arranged zumba, water aerobics and various competitions. On the last day when we were leaving, another girl from Ukraine also arrived as an animator, so you will not be bored in the hotel. Often they organize the export of vacationers to some parties, to a club or to a foam party for money. Were at a foam party for 7 dollars / person. - did not like.
The staff at the hotel is friendly and polite, we did not meet any rudeness or anything like that there.
6. The beach is across the road, and the beach area itself at the hotel is cleaned, but on the beach areas nearby, which do not belong to hotels, there is a lot of rubbish lying around, of course, it’s sad to see that people are such pigs.
The sea on this beach is, frankly, bad. What are its disadvantages - it is located in the bay, there are a lot of boats and boats, few fish, but there are no reefs and corals. If you are with a child, then, of course, it will be good for him there, since the water is shallow and he will not get hurt anywhere, but adults will not appreciate such a "sea".
But there is one big "BUT". If you walk for 8-10 minutes along the beach, you can get to a wild beach. Usually there are few people there, which in principle is a plus. The open sea already begins there, there are reefs, corals, a lot of fish, I definitely advise you to take a mask to see all this underwater beauty! And corals will still come in handy there.
Therefore, the presence of a wild beach nearby compensates for the lack of a normal beach at the hotel itself, at least this completely suited us.
7. The hotel area is quite small, but it is very cozy there, small two-story buildings that accommodate 120 rooms, an on-site swimming pool (without heating), sun loungers, a bar by the pool. Towels can be changed every day, of course, they are not new at all, but we didn’t come across any terrible ones in holes.
Summing up, I can say with confidence that we have never regretted that we have chosen this hotel and if one of our friends asks for some budget AI advice in Sharm, I will definitely recommend this hotel.

First, about the good: I put stars for a good refurbished room that we got for a fee (as everywhere in Egypt). Well, if you are going to swim in the Red Sea, then you are not in Turkvoaz (as this hotel is called in Sharm). The beach there is unkempt, and there is no place for swimming, there is a seaport.

The attitude of the hotel staff towards non-Arab guests is Gestapo. The hotel does not provide water, you can only draw in a plastic cup from the cooler. We poured water into the bottles on the sly until the evil, boring eyes of the serving Arabs saw us. And this is again confirmation that the hotel is 3 stars. There is also a limit on alcoholic drinks, 1 cup in one hand, which was poured by a feisty screaming bartender. My opinion is that they will settle in this hotel for our tourists to support their pants.

Dirty bay, with a bunch of diesel fuel on the shore, and with black sand. Right from the morning of the ship, fuel is poured directly into the sea, from which subsequently large oil circles form on the shore, from which you can then wash off with difficulty. It happens around 7 in the morning. Then, at 10:00, boats and boats begin to start, since from the side of vacationers on a very small piece of the sea, on the beach where you relax, a sea terminal is organized.

It happens around 7 in the morning. Then, at 10:00, boats and boats begin to start, since from the side of vacationers on a very small piece of the sea, on the beach where you relax, a sea terminal is organized. Right there, large groups of vacationers go on excursions from all over Sharm. Bananas also come to vacationers (they are also present there), small children's plastic boats (yes! where people swim)!
No safety precautions are followed. That is, on your piece of a puddle where people also swim and ships set sail, there are a lot of them. When the tide is out, a pipe sticks out from the other side of the pier. In fact, there is no sea in this hotel, because there is no opportunity to swim in it there! Since the local population is brought to all this solar port every day by five buses. They all sit in the remaining piece of the sea on top of each other. The sun loungers are all broken, the paint on them is burned out, sprinkled, rusty nails stick out. While you are swimming, your towels can be taken away and laid out, or sit on yours. The beach is open until 17:00. And at the head of this beach in the center, the owner of the hotel sits on some kind of peeling old chair and watches everyone like a sheikh. A strange sight, judging that everything abandoned, what he looks at there, it would be better if he corrected the shortcomings.
And also in the hotel, all the preferences of the locals, they even have different bracelets, the visitors are blue, and the locals are red. The attitude is the most beautiful to the locals, and the guests are rude, even yell at them! Especially the long thin bartender. We bought the beach nearby (through several hotels), otherwise we would not have bought it normally. And the food, so-so, maybe not a big choice. The number was normal. But the beach, and the sea is not there! No animation. Everything feels greedy. Water was collected in small bottles on the sly, from the cooler, so the remarks were made. Do not throw money away, gentlemen, look for other options. I want the hotel to correct all the shortcomings.
No safety precautions are followed. That is, on your piece of a puddle where people also swim and ships set sail, there are a lot of them. When the tide is out, a pipe sticks out from the other side of the pier. In fact, there is no sea in this hotel, because there is no opportunity to swim in it there!

Who wants a budget holiday you come here! When choosing a tour, I read the reviews, but I took a chance and went, there are pluses and, of course, minuses! We checked in at 20:00, we were offered to have dinner, after we were settled in the room, we were given 3 separate beds, the room is small, old but clean, air conditioning, shower, TV, refrigerator! The food is monotonous, who is a gourmet you do not come here! Alcohol was until 22:00 (beer, rum, vodka).

The food is monotonous, who is a gourmet you do not come here! Alcohol was until 22:00 (beer, rum, vodka).
There are ANIMATORS, in the morning they did gymnastics by the sea, volleyball, 3umba, at about 12:00 aqua aerobics in the pool, in the evenings show programs (belly dance, show with lights, various competitions, children's disco, after an adult! ). You can walk to the old town for 10-15 minutes on foot, at the beginning of the market you can see the prices for excursions (cheaper than the guides from the hotel), buy gifts at the bazaar and see an artificial waterfall, for $ 3 you can take a taxi to see the singing fountain (Soho ).
I didn’t like the fact that check-out was at 12:00, they took off our bracelets, we had a plane at 19:00, at 14:50 a transfer should come for us, it certainly doesn’t take long, but it’s unpleasant to sit on the street or at the reception and wait! The bracelets were removed, but they were allowed to dine! I was with children for me, the rest was a success with a bang, I didn’t plan excursions, the sea was important to me, it was nearby across the road 5 minutes walk!

For tourists who dream of a good but inexpensive vacation, but who are afraid of all sorts of reviews, I decided to write! Go and don't worry! ! ! ! ! You are welcome, because the staff here is very nice and adequate. There is one drawback, but it is in many hotels - check-in from 12.00. Whenever you come.

For tourists who dream of a good but inexpensive vacation, but who are afraid of all sorts of reviews, I decided to write!
Go and don't worry! ! ! ! ! You are welcome, because the staff here is very nice and adequate. There is one drawback, but it is in many hotels - check-in from 12.00. Whenever you come. We arrived at 5 am, asked to be settled as soon as possible, gave 10 dollars. They promised to check in no earlier than 08.30, but it turned out at 10.00. Until then, we were "sour" in the sea, just walking away from the road… at the reception we were given a liter bottle of water and dry rations for the child.
I liked the room, everything you need was there and was in working order. The air conditioning is not new, but good, 3 levels of air supply, we were very rescued in the heat, because it was 35 degrees at night… and not very cold, none of us got sick))) The refrigerator is also there… TV can be watched, there are channels grew. and Ukrainian.
The rooms are very nice because they are clean! When we first came in, I was surprised by the pleasant smell in the room.
Cleaning and towel change every other day. Even the hotel grounds are constantly washed, cleaned daily, you can walk barefoot, so clean. The restaurant also follows the order. People spent breakfast and lunch in the restaurant, because it's cool there, and everyone loved dinner on the street, we were turned on by big fans on all sides. It was very cozy, nice relaxing music sounded. Even surprised by the cleanliness in the public toilet - so everything is clean and nice).
At the expense of food - very tasty! Every day, in addition to breakfast, meat and fish, beef liver, deliciously cooked stewed eggplant with vegetables, baked potatoes, pasta in sauce, rice, delicious first courses and delicious yogurt!
But at the expense of vegetables and fruits a little poor - only melons and oranges from fruits, and cucumbers, peppers, iceberg lettuce and grated carrots from vegetables…, coffee, cola, etc.
You can collect water in the cooler, but preferably with small bottles. .
We bought water in large bottles for $ 1.5 in a shop at the hotel. Those who have frequent digestive problems, it is better to take our water with you.
Now about the beach! The beach is not allowed until 7 am! And you can swim only until 6 pm. After that, walking on the beach is prohibited. The same goes for the pool. The pool is not as clean as you would like, and the water there was very hot… the sea water is clean, the beach is sandy, the sunset by the sea is gradual, good for children. There are no corals here! But you can see different fish! It is better to swim until 9 am, because from 8.30-9.
00 start to start boats, ships parked near the beach, and there is a slight smell of diesel… Then tourists start coming to the beach from all over to ride a "banana"… Many Arabs from Cairo come, "our" and can not be seen) but it does not interfere with normal swimming and enjoying the holiday. There are enough sunbeds for everyone! All are not new, but the mattresses are in good condition.
The only thing that surprised us was that our tourists were given towels old and even torn, and "their" newest ones «
On the beach they make very tasty fresh juices for $ 2 and various ice cream with mango slices, also $ 2 for a normal portion. All people tasted and praised. There is also a beach bar with a variety of drinks, tea and coffee. There is a massage on the beach. The masseuse has always had many patients.
What was a little stressful was that from the beach to the hotel you had to cross the road, where visibility is limited, and cars fly there) Sometimes the hotel janitor came out to meet us and transferred across the road. But I would not dare to let the children go.
For everyone who wants to keep in touch with family or friends, I advise you to buy a starter pack Orange or Vodafone, there is good Internet and enough for a long time. Near the hotel you can buy. Also 10 minutes from the Old Town Hotel, a leisure and shopping center.
Very beautiful mosque, as in a fairy tale)), artificial waterfalls… there is a Russian pharmacy, where there is always a Russian-speaking doctor, and who will answer all your questions and help you find medicine. I advise you to buy everything only here, because the hotel is half as expensive!
Not far from the hotel is the Marina - a seaport from where you can go on an unforgettable sea voyage, especially I advise the White Island, or the Egyptian Maldives. Traveled cheaply from Sindbad tour. From a tour operator twice as expensive (((
I recommend the hotel to everyone who wants to relax simply and quietly.
Have a good rest and unforgettable divination!

About little things. Convenient location (5 minutes walk to the old town). Comfortable rooms with a sea view and a large balcony (I'm talking about #103), but not all rooms are like that. Normal decent staff. Convenient access to the sea. Everything else is just awful. Especially the Arabs who come on Thursday, Friday for the whole day just to relax on the beach at the hotel do not even settle, but take places on sunbeds and on a small beach that smells of diesel fuel.

After complaints to the administration, they simply brought a few sunbeds and put them in the sun.
Towels are all faded, faded. New ones are given only to Arabs who settle in a hotel.
Savings on literally everything. Even the glasses in the rooms are disposable paper and they don't give you new ones. In bars and restaurants, everything is in 100 mg plastic cups.
You can talk about spoiled vacation.

SHORT. A cozy quiet hotel on the first line, with a completely sandy sunset, in the Old Town (650 m). Coral reef - 10 minutes walk along the beach line. The rooms are tolerable, with a side view of the sea and the mosque of the Old City. The food is delicious, the choice is small. Quiet family holiday hotel without animation.

Quiet family holiday hotel without animation.
There is no service, at least servants, there are no bartenders in bars (sometimes they pray, sometimes they help in a restaurant).
THE MOST IMPORTANT THING!! ! Zhmotsky hotel. Don't take it, put it in its place, don't sit there. Everything there is the owner (his place on the beach, then his chair under a palm tree) is ridiculous. There is no hospitality at all, and it doesn't even smell.
(An elementary example - a man from Lithuania leaves, came in and took a fucking bun on the road, so they ran all the way to the shuttle and shouted that he would pay 10 bucks) It looked impressive from the outside.
To sum up - HOTEL SINGLE USE!! !
