TO Biblio Globus (the meeting side of Azur. Departure on August 4, Transaero, on time. Met and delivered to the hotel quite quickly. We were at the hotel at 22.40, settled quickly and without money. They gave a room on the ground flow (the so-called ground floor, in our 1st with a terrace). 5 meters from the pool and from the water park (2 unfortunate slides). At 23 we even had time for a late dinner.
Territory: all buildings are 3-storey, with a 90% view of the pool. Quite a green area with pools and rivers stretching towards the sea. There are 2 large playgrounds on the territory - one on the beach, between Garden and Mamluk, the other in Mamluk.
Rooms: The rooms are quite spacious and clean. All plumbing is in good condition. The rooms have air conditioning, hairdryer, safe, tea and coffee set, mini-bar, TV with 2 Russian channels, shower. They clean every day, even with shampoo (there is a characteristic smell), make various animals from towels and pillows. Towels are changed on request, at least every day, and do not broadcast back.

Meals: During the vacation we visited 2 restaurants - Asian and Italian, in a larger number it was just stressful to walk with a child. I liked the restaurants, for the sake of variety it is worth going. We ate mainly at the Mamluk restaurant, a couple of times we went to dinner at the Garden for comparison. Every day they give meat, chicken, fish with various side dishes. Of the fruits were apples, pears, grapefruits, plums, pomegranates, watermelons, melons, grapes, dates, oranges, bananas. The food is pretty decent for Egypt, though a couple of times they gave frankly raw potatoes and pasta (where pasta is cooked). Juices from packages (which is important for me, because the child is 3 years old). True, in the morning in the dispenser they are diluted by 50% with water. The restaurant has a coffee machine - about 5 types of coffee, incl. cappuccino and espresso.
Beach: What pleased - there are almost no TRADERS! Which sell excursions, etc. At 9 am there are no first 2 rows from the sea! Everything is occupied with towels, pareos and even socks! In order to lie down on the 1-2 row with the child, you need to get up at 6 in the morning. There is enough space on the beach itself. The bar on the beach every day pizza and the likeness of shawarma with fries.
There is no animation as such on the beach, we noticed it on the 9th day of our stay and then also lost it. You can say that it doesn't exist.
Back, the 18th flight is also without delay. Arrived 3 hours before departure.
If you have any questions, I will answer.
