The rest was a success and this is the main thing, despite the fact that it was cold for a couple of days and some "troubles".
Briefly about the main and good:
1. I have been in Egypt 8 times already. There is something to compare.
2. . Pickalbatros Sea World Resort 4 and Albatros Aqua Park 4* are ONE COMMON area. Only two receptionists. That's all. No fences or barriers. Both hotels have one thing in common. See where the price will be cheaper there and buy a tour. All restaurants and cafes and slides and everything, everything is all in common. Wherever you want there and go. The food is tastier and better in the main restaurant under the Picalbatros reception. We almost always ate there. Nearby, on the same line 2, there is another Albatros - Albatros Aqua Vista, so it is closed for repairs.

3. The territory is huge, green. In general, for children, this hotel is Paradise. lots of slides, lots of pools. And, most importantly, the water in the pool is heated. When it was cold outside, everyone swam in warm pools and it was a thrill even for us adults. There is a children's center for the very young. In general, everything is enough. We were in the low season, there were few people, the sunbeds were free, everything was so good and spacious))
4. Staff - very friendly. What is at the reception, what is in the restaurant. True, at the bar, there are always some kind of evil uncles. Well, they don’t understand us, why do we drink so much)
5. Beach - to the beach 3 minutes by bus (leaves the reception every 20-30 minutes) or 10 minutes walk through the Hotel of the same chain - Albatros Beach 5 *. We enjoyed walking around the beautiful territory, there is beauty! Another point - the pools in this hotel are AVAILABLE to us, the residents of the Albatros and Picalbatros Water Park! Therefore, when we went to the beach, we always rode on their hill)) You can’t use the bar on their territory, but the pools are welcome. On the beach, too, their pool is huge, heated, and the music is chiming there and the animators are also available to us.
For our 2 hotels on the beach there is a special place, there are signs where our part of the beach is. Bar on the beach. The entrance to the sea is sand! for mothers with children - what you need. There are no fish. Whoever wants fish, they are around our pier, you need to enter from the side of the wild beach (if you look at the sea, the pier is on your left). By the way, we took about 100 photos there. The photo shoot went well. Very beautiful sea. You can dive there and see the fish.
In the Bar on the beach coffee, drinks, alcohol and everything else. Burgers and French fries from 12.00-15.00
All in all, I would return to this hotel. Tembolee that we took the tour for absolutely ridiculous money.
Now about the MINUSES and they are. :

1. Rooms - dead furniture, old. The room itself is spacious. Bathroom - you can’t swear here, you can’t. Room 1 * 1, a tiny shower with an old oilcloth and a tiny old sink, on which you can’t even put a glass with a brush. I am silent already about shampoos, creams and jars. And this is the situation in almost all buildings. But, having raised the boil, I was moved from 3 times to building "C" near the main pool. Everything is different there. Huge black marble bathroom, huge sink, and separate black marble shower. I advise you right away, asks at the reception in buildings C, B and next to them. Because in buildings 1-2-3-8, those that go in numbers, you can get a shock from the bathroom there.
I gave 10 ye to Mahmud in gratitude, who, after my hysteria, took me to this room. He can solve any issue there. And one more thing, our flight was rescheduled for the evening, and Mahmud allowed us to stay in our room until check-out from the hotel, until 16.00 Although according to the rules, the room must be vacated by 12.00
(Mahmud is their chief there for room staff, for the rooms themselves. But he doesn’t sit at the Reception. He runs around the hotel. He’s a very good guy. You can solve everything with him. And don’t forget about gratitude)
2. Beach towels - they are probably 100 years old. It's time to change ((
3. Wi-Fi - it is not in the rooms. Just sitting at the reception. By the way, it is very cozy there in the evenings, the piano, guitar plays, they sing beautiful calm songs, jazz....A lot of people gather there in the evening.
4. Animation - pipets. It seems to be there. But it is as if it is not there. Girls, youngsters, sorry, who smoke around the corner every 5 minutes, they are not visible at all in the hotel. In the evening at the disco they behave ugly. Especially a black girl, she is 18-20 years old, but her behavior is prostitutes from the village of Druzhba. I would very much like the Administration to review the animation and all those for people in the evenings there were some kind of performances and shows.
Children's Animation is also at the lowest level. 5 songs that I hear in every hotel for 6 years in a row, every day they turn them in a circle, and the children dance to them. 5 songs - and ALL! it's tin of course ((
In short Animation is a big minus for this hotel. By the way, in a nearby hotel on Albatros Beach, that's where the animation is super! And they sing and dance and play basketball on the beach, well, in short, cool!...
Of the minuses - everything for me. The rest is one positive.

In general, the hotel is good. And I will recommend it. There are disadvantages of course, but they are not critical or solvable. For the price this is a very good hotel.
To all who will be in this hotel, a small request to you. Behind the reception of Albatros Aquapark, on the street, there are a number of shops. There, about 3-4 shops from the beginning, a kitten Mashka lives in it, she was sheltered by the seller of this shop. They have a hard time with food there, so, every day we brought her chicken or meat... she swallows everything in an instant. very hungry, little Mashka. Please bring food to her) The owner will be very happy and grateful, she is still very much.
