The hotel "Royal Zhinen" is located near the sea, next to it there is a three-ruble note from the same network, the infrastructure is common. Disadvantage - the hotel is located in the middle between the city of Sousse and the nightlife center of Kantaoui. Travel in both directions or by taxi or by bus (number 12, rarely runs, but cheap. ) The hotel is built in one building - like 5 floors. The staff is trained, they know English, German and, of course, French. They don't seem to speak Russian. There are Russians in fours, in threes it is much less.
The food is good, but there is almost no fruit - only watermelons, melons and occasionally peaches and apples. A lot of meat in various types (chicken) and eggs. Good sweet, almost no fish. Local alcohol - free for "all inclusive" - ​ ​ not so much. There is white and red wine (normal), tibarin - date liquor, buha - moonshine, and one kind of beer. The rest is for money. Bars are open somewhere from 10 to midnight, you can roam around them. There is also a barbecue near the beach, but we did not try it. Near the beach there is also a bar for AI, where they pour. Disadvantage - for each order you have to sign the handed check.
The decoration of the room is normal, the room is large, there is a spacious balcony. The current TV in my room let us down - small. Channels 14, no Russians. From the English-speaking BBC and Deutsche Welle. Views from the window are different. Without money, they will settle with a view of the courtyard. Me for 5 bucks - sea view. About the sea - good. Sometimes there are jellyfish. The beach is a narrow strip, but there are enough sunbeds. The mattress costs one dinar a day. The beach is cleaned of algae, so it is moderately clean. By the way - access to the sea is closed at night.

From entertainment at sea - on neighboring beaches there is a banana, a parachute and other sea crap. In addition, the hotel offers, of course, excursions. The prices are the same, so you don't have to worry.
Yes, there is also a currency exchange at rice paddle, it is customary to give a small tip in a hotel (and in general in the country). Locals are sexual terrorists, so girls are not recommended to go alone and be offended by the suggestions of hotel staff.
Bottom line - I liked the hotel, it's worth the money. If you did not come to eat and drink, the most it is for good money.
