We stayed at the beginning of June 2013. with his wife. 4 hours from Sharm - minus, what can I say. They say that from October to May planes fly directly to Taba. When placing offered to pay extra 25 bucks. per day for a room with a balcony, or 32 bucks. - a day for a bungalow. We gave up and have no regrets. The room was normal, on the 8th floor - beauty. The only problem is that once in the evening the electricity was cut off for half an hour - the elevators did not work - I had to stomp the stairs of 10 floors. Vacationers in the hotel - a third - the Slavs, a third - Europe, a third of the Arabs and Jews. There are few young people, mostly vacationers from 30 to 50. There are no complaints about food, except for the lack of normal coffee. We ordered 3 tanks for money. - a cup of espresso
Cleaning in the room - no remarks, a day later they left a buck. The staff is surprisingly friendly (there is something to compare - in Egypt for the 3rd time), everyone greets you and asks how are you? Rudeness and disrespect were not noticed. In the restaurant, the staff was on the level - they gave me a tip a couple of times - they greeted me with smiles of 38 teeth, they brought drinks like rockets, I didn’t have time to finish my meal - there were no plates. There were no stale salads, stale pastries. The only thing missing was fruit. there were mostly dates, cut oranges and grapefruits, fruit platter in syrup, which we did not dare to try, in the evenings - melon or watermelon. Animation at the hotel is unobtrusive - two incendiary Arabs entertain the audience in a measure of fun. There is a night disco. but we didn't go there and didn't hear her. The sea is good, especially when it's calm (it was 3 days). A piece of bread - and you don't have to dive - there are a flock of fish around you. I did not withdraw my hand in time - a 3-kilogram green-blue carp bit my finger. Part of the nail is blue so far.
With regard to the excursion to the holy places - we did not become goofy - we bought a daily trip from Pegasus and did not lose. And although they overpaid twice, compared to the prices of the Arabs, we left in the evening, at 1 o'clock in the morning we went to bed in a hotel in Bethlehem, at 7 we had breakfast - and forward. the Arabs, on the other hand, are taking people from 1 am to 7 am to Bethlehem (taking into account the rush hour at this time at the border crossing). Were satisfied (especially the wife).

Shopping street next to the hotel. We bought a traditional T-shirt for me and 3 tunics for my wife (all for 5 tank), you can bargain and cheaper. My wife now (in the heat) wears them every day. By the way, it's a joke - in a dutik at the border crossing with Israel they bought 2 liter bottles of whiskey for 20 tank (for 2). Stunned. when they saw that one of the same bottle in Sharma's dutik costs 28.
