So we returned from the vaunted hotel with the "life-affirming" name Titanic. In order to prevent reproaches, in my address, in picky and bad mood, I want to say right away that it is more positive, more tolerant, more benevolent and more patient than I still need to look for. I also note that I am in Egypt for the seventh time and for the last six times I have not had a single negative impression about the rest. Always continuous enthusiasm and bewilderment towards people who cannot stand Egypt.
So, Tez tour met us well, the only surprise was the unwillingness of the driver to throw our suitcases into the luggage compartment. We had to do everything ourselves (two women with a three-year-old child). The hotel was struck by the slowness of the workers at the reception. But figs with this... After filling out the questionnaire, we were told to wait, when twenty minutes later I came up and asked when we would be given the keys, I was told that we would be settled no earlier than in two hours. Oops! It was already time for my baby to sleep, provided that she got up at three in the morning. Bosch with him, we waited for the check-in, they gave us a room with a sea view, a bungalow and... a construction site))) I immediately told the reception to bring a crib for the baby. Kakoe there! After we got to the room, I waited 15 minutes and called the reception with a second request for a bed. After 10 minutes, a stupid-looking porter came without a crib, asked how old the child was and left. Soon he came with a crib for babies, which my princess simply did not physically fit in. When I pointed this out to him, with an idiotic smile, it was noted that legs sticking out through the bars were normal. Inhaling the air and counting to ten (understand my annoyance due to fatigue and already just a deranged child from fatigue), so as not to immediately gouge out his eye, I calmly but firmly said that the bed needed to be replaced. With the same mockingly idiotic expression on his face, this creature said that he would bring the bed in an hour. Drumroll! For the first time in my life, I yelled obscenities, and in the most sophisticated expressions that you can think of. The result - in five minutes we had a covered mattress for our daughter on the floor. So he was still waiting for a tip. For tea, he received a short phrase about what kind of organ he would get all over his muzzle.
Then there was some surprise when I realized that the waiters in the restaurant exist only to take away dirty dishes (practically without brushing food leftovers from the table) and lay out napkins and clean (not always clean) cutlery. Bringing drinks is out of the question. Full self-service in everything, including tea and instant coffee preparation. In the morning, when you stand in line for an omelette, you have to stand in line for tea. And no matter which of the queues to defend first, either the omelette will cool down or the tea, and the queues there are unprecedented, because the hotel is big. And in the evening you run for a drink, and every time you stand in line. I was also struck by the lack of signs near the dishes. Those. In the morning, when choosing yogurt, I probably have to take a sip from each vat in order to understand which yogurt I still prefer))))) Where there was bread, there were no tongs and a towel for cutting bread.

The bathroom is not thought out in the room; as a mother, it’s inconvenient for me to wash my daughter in the shower (the head is high and always gets wet, they don’t give out shower caps) I’m generally silent about the length of the hair dryer cord - saving on everything)))))) For 11 days, the linen was not changed at all. Only once changed at my request to the child because she vomited in bed. Speaking of the notorious vomiting. We made friends with the hotel doctors (the only intelligent and normal Arabs in this hotel) and they gave us daily statistics. For example, on April 29.11 people came to them with the same symptoms. And so every day. In general, the infection is walking in the hotel and it’s not about food, although doctors did not recommend eating fish. And by the way, not in the pool the same. A lot of people got sick without swimming in the pool.
Now about the sea. On the very first day near the shore, I saw muddy water with floating liquid mud on the surface, as well as, frankly, feces. I almost threw up, but then the tide came in, the water cleared and it was wonderful. In general conclusion. If you want a normal sea near the coast from morning to 4 pm, then go to the new moon. Because after the full moon in the morning there is no water. That's how smart I am - I compared and studied everything. )))))) Now about the beauty of the sea - for Hurghada it's normal. Those who have previously traveled to Sharm do not expect anything interesting. I smiled maternally affectionately when people enthusiastically said "Oh! such a beauty!! ! So many fish!!! " I didn't want to disappoint them.
Now for the kids club. German animators are gyyyyyy!! ! They didn't take my daughter because she is small. In Sharm she was taken from the age of 2. They just took it for one day and themselves concluded that she was an adequate and developed child. My daughter cried a lot because of the rejection. So she wanted to play with the kids in the club. Anyway. I can't help but say a few words about the "wonderful" disco with a "charming" DJ. He set a run and it was always the same. Well, we do not smoke schmal and do not take LSD, so this kind of music does not rush us. No Latino and Oriental there for you. No dance hits or slow-mos, just swotting and rap. Everyone praises the Havana club, but due to the fact that I was with the baby, I never went.
My friend had a birthday - anniversary! In the morning we were called to the reception to ask where and what time to serve the cake with congratulations. We, like fools, dragged ourselves to the reception (the path is not close), and as a result, everyone forgot about congratulations. My daughter was looking forward to the holiday and was very upset that Aunt Olya was not congratulated.

My child fell ill on the second day and had a temperature for six days, then she vomited for two days, but it's still not the hotel's fault, it's just an accident, so it's not relevant.
And the rest is a beautiful marquise, everything is fine everything is fine !! ! ; -))))
If there are questions, I will try to answer.
