Суровые будни в Эмиратах Harsh everyday life in the Emirates

Verona Resort is a hostage of its location, its location on the outskirts, about 10 km from the center of Sharjah, is its main drawback. If you plan to go only on organized excursions and shopping tours, if you only need a beach holiday, if you need alcohol from time to time (which is not sold in Sharjah, but is available in the bars of neighboring Ajman), then this hotel is for you! But if you are planning to look for adventure and entertainment on your own, then I will say straight out - the Hotel is located very inconveniently! A taxi ride will cost you a little: to the central market-15 Dx. one way, to the singing fountains - about 20-22, to the Sahara center - 29-30 Dirhams (multiply by 8 and get rubles), return at night from Dubai (from Burj Khalifa) 85-95 Dh! The hotel is quiet, a lot of Russians, the food is average, the pool is of medium size: you can swim and flounder in shallow water, I did not notice any special friendliness from the staff. The rooms are quite tolerable, cleaned every day. Wi-fi in the room works well, but keep in mind that in the UAE there is censorship on the Internet, many sites of frivolous content are blocked))). The Hotel has a gym, but there is usually not enough time and energy for it, so it was almost always empty! There is not much entertainment in the hotel, and, of course, there are baths, but they look a little ridiculous against the backdrop of round-the-clock heat. . . The beach is sandy, 5-7 minutes walk from the hotel, already in Ajman (that is, you can safely get drunk, morals are more severe in Sharjah) without sunbeds, changing cabins and other amenities, it is very reminiscent of a Black Sea vacation. Near the hotel there is a supermarket with reasonable prices and fresh products from all over the world, it is very convenient, because we took BB. In general, at the level of a 4-star hotel in Egypt, if that says something to someone).
