We chose this hotel based on the reviews. According to the number of visits to Egypt since 2001, the exact number of visits after 25 times ceased to be counted.
Were in decent hotels and not so... Depending on the price and time of year.
This hotel had only rave reviews for food and cleanliness. The only bad thing was the sea, judging by most of the reviews.
Our impression after 14 days of staying at the hotel is the following - the kitchen just sucks, plus complete unsanitary conditions. Huge lines of hungry tourists. Unimaginably huge pandemonium, which is simply unacceptable. The serving chefs themselves throw minimal portions, not always of high quality, onto your dish with undisguised contempt.
The waiters do not understand what a clean table is, mountains of dirty dishes are on the tables, tourists themselves often clean the dishes and wipe the terribly dirty tables.

The area is really clean and well maintained. A huge disadvantage is the presence of mosquitoes that deprive sleep at night.
Due to the fact that the hotel is crowded, there is endless noise, which, accordingly, makes the rest tense. On the beach, before our eyes, a beach mushroom from the sun weighing more than 100 kg fell, miraculously did not cripple the lying tourists.
In the areas on the terraces where you would like to sit with a cup of coffee - this is the area of ​ ​ u200bu200bparadise for smokers. They are a priority, there are ashtrays for them, smoke with a rocker. If you don't smoke - look for a place for yourself somewhere else. It turns out that people suffering from addiction and poisoning healthy people with their smoke are the complete masters of life here.
Housekeeping for easy 2, room and furniture killed.
The biggest negative is that the beach towels are not changed at all. For 14 days we could hardly beg us to change once. In addition, towels must be worn every day to and from the beach. Due to the fact that the hotel is far away, it is very tiring, especially for people who are elderly or in poor health.
Of course, reception managers react to everything with lightning speed, which is commendable.
Also, the hotel is located away from Hurghada, getting there if you wish is not cheap, there is a transfer (taxi service) at the hotel. We once used this service and paid round trip, fixed departure and return times. They brought it there and forgot to take it back, as a result, they waited two hours until they remembered us. This is tin.
The sea is really shallow with low tides, but if you wish, there are places nearby where you can swim perfectly. There are no complaints about the sea.
We were reassured by the fact that we were traveling at a promotional price.
But there is not the slightest desire to return to this hotel even for free.
