The hotel was chosen based on reviews for food and location. The undoubted advantages of the hotel are a sandy beach, a heated pool for children and a large one for adults, excellent food, convenient location.
For nutrition. So that there are no questions from those who were already there and they didn’t like something (either the cheese is tasteless, then the legs of the squid are crooked, then the plates are hot). Just ask yourself the question: do you also eat at home? I have no questions about nutrition, everything is tasty, varied, fresh. There was a situation when the child got sick and the wife could not come to dinner, everything was decided through Lisa (for which special thanks to her) I chose everything I wanted in the restaurant, the staff wrapped it all in foil and delivered it to the room on a tray within 5 minutes!
By placement. We arrived at the hotel at 9:00. Immediately sent for breakfast, but settled at 14-00. Some write that they check in at 10-00, the guide on the bus also instilled hope that they will definitely check-in before 11-00, because. the hotel is half empty. All this turned out to be untrue. The hotel is really empty, and I was a witness when visitors checked in at 10-00, but apparently what kind of change of administrators you will get. We were categorically not settled, even for money, and this is with a small child! For this, of course, the hotel is a MINUS!

A separate story about family numbers. They are certainly creepy. Moreover, at 14-00 when we came to check in (I highly recommend not to take your suitcases with you right away, because you may not like the room and you will change it) the room was not ready yet. The dude was really fixing the air conditioner, but let me remind you that the hotel is half empty! ! In general, I had to go directly to the general manager of the hotel, mr. Khaled Abd El Latif. This is a really talented manager and a person clearly in his place. I say this not because he ordered us to move to a superior room, overlooking the sea, opposite the playground for FREE, but because he himself repeatedly observed how he walks around the hotel, communicates with tourists, with staff. That is, the process of managing the hotel took place before our eyes. And the staff, of course, feels it - everyone is polite, with smiles, positive. It is for this atmosphere that it is worth visiting this hotel! This is a big PLUS for this hotel!
Along the beach. You need to go to the beach... and go up the stairs. But after a hearty breakfast or lunch, where else will you spend your energy? The road to the beach is rather a plus, especially since there is a wonderful bar along the way where you can get a refreshing juice or beer. As they say to each his own, but then someone else's; )
The beach is located in a wonderful place, in the bay and it is SANDY! Not the first time in Egypt, but the sandy beach is the second huge PLUS of this hotel! The sea is clean, I would not say that it is warm, but in principle it is beautiful enough to stand in the water for 2 minutes and stop feeling its coolness. I judge by the child, if the sea were cold, he would not swim, a 2.5-year-old baby could not be pulled out of the water! Yes, he got sick, but it's his throat, and I know the reason for this - ICE CREAM! It is at the bar near the pool in any quantity. Since the child fell ill, we got acquainted with insurance medicine, but this is a separate story, and anyone who is interested can write in a personal, I will answer.
By placement. The hotel is within walking distance from El Merkato street and a cheap taxi ride to the Old Market. The taxi rank is in front of the hotel. It is advisable to take a taxi yourself. We met a taxi driver, exchanged phone numbers (a local SIM card costs about 5 bucks) and rode a taxi everywhere. For example, to the Old Market and the Metro store, the price is 30 pounds or 1.1 dollars. And this is the undoubted third PLUS.
I really liked the hotel, the location is excellent both in terms of attractions, accessibility of transport and lack of wind. Excellent hotel, despite its 4 stars - this is a good five! Have a good rest and positive emotions!
