Standard room: two single beds, 4 wall lamps, a lamp, a floor lamp, an armchair + a table, a large table, a chair, a mirror, a TV, a refrigerator, a safe (they showed how to use it, they didn’t take money), a wardrobe. In the bathroom there is a shower behind a fence, a toilet bowl, a sink + a table.
Service: most of the staff speaks Russian, better or worse. They respond to all requests instantly, rush to open the doors when you go : ). Clean clean, cleaning at 2 noon. Each room should be supplied daily with 2 liter bottles of water - they forgot several times, had to be reminded, they immediately apologized. They finish it on the go: they hang pictures, adjust lock doors, but they don’t interfere much with life. There were constant problems with electricity, there was a shield next to my door, so as soon as the "engineer" digs there, the machine immediately knocks out, there is no light in the room. 4 times in these 6 days I ran to complain, they fixed it right away. Those. the staff does not know Russian and English, i. е. only at the reception. There are mosquitoes in the room (and in general on the territory). The territory is intensively planted with greenery, almost around the clock, in a year or two it should become very even.
Meals: there was always stew and chicken, not every day - fish. Garnish - always rice, potatoes, stewed vegetables. Breakfast included scrambled eggs, scrambled eggs, boiled eggs, fried toast, coffee and tea. There is always soup, usually mashed soup, for lunch - a choice of 2. There are many salads and dressings, desserts and bread / pastries - also a great choice. There were practically no fresh fruits, only sliced ​ ​ apples, on some days - grapes (not in a brush, individual berries), guava, melon slices, in my opinion, bananas, also sliced. Brunch by the pool - pastries only. From 14:00 by the pool - ice cream. From 12 there is a disco bar on the 1st floor in the building. The pool closes at sunset, and sunset in November at about 4 pm, the sun sets behind the mountain.

The sea, as Ilya correctly wrote, is wild. Indeed, it is better to enter from the left side closer to the fence. I went in knee-deep and immediately stuck my masked face into the water - to see where I was going : ). There are a lot of sea urchins, there are very large ones. There are a lot of fish too, it's beautiful). The strip of coral is not wide, no more than 15 meters, further there is a cliff and depth. The sea was stormy, so it was a little uncomfortable. People bought large circles and mattresses, swam across a strip of corals on them, and then they admired the living creatures.
From entertainment - violent animators). Every day - permanent dancing by the pool, yoga, beach volleyball, water polo. Every evening at 20:00. children's animation, at 21 o'clock an adult show program on the street or in a disco bar. I was very impressed with the dance with skirts.
There are 3 shops on the territory (to the right of the restaurant, up the stairs to the 2nd floor). There are coral slippers ($10), boats, a souvenir, hookahs, etc. You can and should trade.
Pools (3 pieces) with cold water, including a paddling pool for children. The staff says "normal", 19-22 degrees. It feels more like 19 than 22.3 jacuzzis are heated (next to the pool), just a buzz : ). There are no slides, and, apparently, there will not be, because. I don't think there is anywhere to put them. In general, the territory is small. The pontoon is promised by the end of winter.
A separate topic is excursions. At Pegasus, from which I went, they are the most expensive, ALL operators are cheaper. At the same time, they can’t buy a tour from them at the hotel, everyone sells only to “their” tourists, so you need to order in advance via the Internet. The city of Taba simply does not exist yet, it is useless to look for it : ), the nearest settlement is Nuweiba, and the hotel phone number is generally assigned to Dahab. I went there for the sake of Israel, I was very pleased with the tour, I also climbed Mount Moses - it's a long story, but this is a VERY difficult climb, I advise only pilgrims or well-trained people. Pure extreme, and not the adrenaline type of jeep racing, but insanely hard physically.
About "Pegasus" - the only tour operator whose representative was almost constantly at the hotel, the rest came well if once a day. Helps with the solution of any problems, hotel and excursion.
In general, the impression of the hotel is very favorable, there was something to do, and when to relax, I am very satisfied.
