I stayed in this hotel with my girlfriend for two weeks in mid-April. In general, the rest were very satisfied. Of course, the cold weather spoiled the rest a little. In Egypt this year turned out to be the same anomalous April as in Moscow. In general, it is always colder in Nuweiba than in Sharm or Hurghada. Especially water.

Rooms.

The rooms, as many write here, are not new, but quite adequate. True, the absence of a bath as such killed it. It is necessary to wash under the shower, standing on the tile. I had to climb there in flip flops, in which they went to the beach, so as not to pick up some kind of fungus, standing barefoot. There is no toilet brush in the bathroom! ! ! Guard! There were no bags in the trash cans. Housekeeping is more or less decent. Rooms on the second and third floors with a balcony, on the first - without. Rooms on the first floor are considered Deluxe and are more expensive. Living on the ground floor makes sense if you find it difficult to walk up the stairs.
Without a balcony - there is even nowhere to hang your swimming trunks and swimsuit to dry, not to mention the fact that everyone walks by. My choice is the second floor.

Food.
Food is a solid four. But this only applies to the main restaurant. The choice of dishes was not always varied, but one hot dish could always be chosen. The grill has always been especially good - chicken, beef, lamb (once a week), fish. Salads - Egyptian standard. The selection of cheeses was very good. Salted cucumbers pleased. Fruit was only for breakfast. There was no fruit for lunch and dinner. The breakfasts are very good - cottage cheese, puddings, pancakes, omelettes, buns...Freshly squeezed orange and carrot juices every morning. But the food in the nearby pizza restaurant is disgusting, tasteless, damp. There are only two.

Sea and beach.
The sea is magical as always. The beach is sandy and large. At 7.30 in the morning it was possible to take a seat on the second line.
The umbrellas are well spaced apart, but many of the sunbeds are noticeably worn. The glasses at the beach bar may not always be clean.

Service.
The service in the blue-blue restaurant frankly pleased. The staff is polite, friendly, they bring everything quickly and several times. At the reception, all issues are also resolved. The opposite impression was left by additional services. It seemed that the hotel staff received their order every morning - "today you will do gymnastics on the beach, you will be a doctor, and today you are doing a massage, and tomorrow you all change" : ). Such is the rotation of personnel. For two weeks, several athletes have changed on the beach. One is worse than the other, the sequence of the proposed exercises is devoid of common sense and dangerous to health (for example, sharp circular movements of the neck). Massage ...In the beginning there was a guy and a girl. I was crushed by a guy, my girlfriend - by a girl.

After the session, they agreed that for everyone it was the worst massage in life. Then the girl disappeared, she was replaced by a new guy. In general, "cinema and the Germans. " But the most disgusting impression left the hotel's medical service. During the week the hotel changed three doctors. But this would not be a problem if everyone did not demand to pay the franchise one more time : ). That is, for medicines that ended the very next day, the new doctor demanded new $30. The insurance company - "European Tourist Society" played on the side of the hotel. Hotel management too. As a result, after a written complaint to the hotel administration, a conversation with one of the hotel managers and negotiations with Dr. Mustafa, the general manager of the voiced insurance company in Egypt, the last companion eventually called back and assured that the medicines would be brought to the room for free, which was the case be.
So here's a quick tip for dealing with doctors and insurance companies: Never overpay for a deductible; if you feel that they are trying to cheat you, speak only with the main person in the representative office of the insurance company, ask for his name and make it clear that if the problem is not resolved, then the complaint will go to the company's central office. All this, of course, is acceptable if the truth is on your side.

Tour operator - "Pegas Touristik".
Meeting and seeing off (transfer) - normul! The guide at the hotel (at that time was Dasha) worked for four. The main "ambush" of Pegasus is a trip to Israel. After crossing the border, PASSPORTS are taken away for the entire stay in Israel! ! ! You will be warned about this 15 minutes before the border. Those who do not agree can leave. In hotels (not only in ours) they do not warn about this in advance. The motivation for this outrage is that some tourists run away and stay in Israel, or something else.
Also, the departure itself for an excursion to Jerusalem was announced at the hotel an hour earlier than the actual departure time. As a result, fifteen people slept peacefully for an hour on the street. Another gesture of Pegasus - buses! Dirty, with cold unregulated air conditioning. we craved that we went from them.
Animation.
There is always live music in the evening.

Territory.
The territory of the hotel is beautiful, small, but very cozy.
There is a swing by the sea, which is always free in the evening. There are two pools in the hotel, both quite small.

The contingent of vacationers.
The majority of holidaymakers are English-speaking tourists from the UK, mostly of retirement age. German speech heard only once. There were Czechs, Japanese and others. Russians and Ukrainians were about 25%. Closer to the May holidays, their number increased.

In general, the holiday was a success! If the weather were warmer, the holiday would be great
