Reading below the reviews of tourists vacationing at the same time as we were shocked. If you think that for 1300-1600 dollars. for two to Egypt they will fan you with fans, then you are very mistaken. The hotel corresponds to its price, although it does not pull on a five-star.
We went from Pegasus. There were no conflicts with them, because. They didn't come up with questions or problems. Tickets were bought on the last day, before departure we were given the entire package of documents.
The settlement took place without incident. We left our things in the lobby, they met us at the reception, gave us cards to fill in, said that they could put us in a room with a sea view for $ 100. When we said that for the money it doesn’t suit us, they offered for 50 dollars. For us it was acceptable and we were immediately given the key to the room. (You can bargain for the price - many agreed for $30). The room was good with air conditioning. The hotel safe is free. They didn’t bring things for a long time, but we called the reception, they said that things hadn’t been brought yet - and after 10 minutes. things were in the room. They gave 1 dollar, the porter did not require any additional payments.

The window in the room opened like a balcony door. In front of him is a lawn and an awesome view of palm trees and the sea.
During the rest, we were not cleaned only once - and that because we ourselves refused. I wanted to sleep, and cleaning was in the morning. If the cleaner says that he only cleans until 12, and you want to sleep, feel free to call the reception and ask to clean the room when you wake up. There were no interruptions with water - they brought it even if the old one was not yet open. Yes, and on every corner you could take cola, sprite. beer, water, coffee, etc. , so we weren't particularly thirsty.
We went to look at the sea at night - it is very transparent, you can see the bottom and the fish. True, after sunset you can not swim. The sea is gorgeous, take masks, snorkels, flippers.
Just during our vacation, Russians came to the hotel. There were no drunken brawls, screams and songs. Everyone got acquainted, rested together, had fun. In the bar, although they poured 2 glasses in one hand, but after drinking, some immediately stood in line and took more. The bartenders have never refused anyone a drink. Great bartender Yaser. Drinks in Egypt are of their own production, almost non-alcoholic, so if you wish, buy alcohol in Duty Free.
The animation is not very good (programs), but the animators themselves (Tarek, Big Mu-Mu))) - nothing guys, groovy, funny, before the start of performances, discos, karaoke, water aerobics, they invited everyone they met along the way. On the penultimate evening, we met a DJ and arranged our own disco).
The food is not chic, but quite tolerable - well prepared pizza in an Italian restaurant, lasagna. In a simple restaurant, they took meat, fish, chopped vegetables, pasta and rice, potatoes and salads did not risk it. All edible - tested on humans. In the evenings, a barbecue was lit on the balcony of the restaurant, dishes were cooked on it, and those who wished could take ice cream. They have delicious bread and pastries.

We went to the Old City for souvenirs - taxi drivers agree to take you for 8 dollars. (they like to bargain - and we used it).
My husband played darts, volleyball in the evenings, ping pong, played billiards before lunch and dinner.
The hotel is all tiled (floors, pool, even roofs), the hotel territory is washed in the evenings, the bushes are trimmed - everything is neat. Sometimes cute little lizards run by.
We really liked the rest - the main thing is to relax with a positive attitude and treat the staff humanely. Their salaries are low, and some plow day and night. Always be human.
