We came to this hotel for a couple of days on our own, booked through an agency. The hotel is one of the cheapest and based on this (I think) and you have to think! It cost us $37 for a double+infant per day on AI. Now in order. At the start, to make it clear, Delta Sharm is almost a mini-city or a city district, there is even a roadway there...
Check in/room
The taxi driver brought us to the dining room, and not to the reception, we did not immediately understand this, but we were already dropped off) The dining room is probably a kilometer from the reception (according to sensations), but there is a checkpoint, which saved us) The person from the checkpoint called the reception and an electric car came for us, which was discharged already at the entrance to the reception, so we again walked back to the dining room, because. The room was given even further than the dining room. It is problematic to explain on the fingers the scale of the hotel, so everything that can be filmed on video, there is also a map of the hotel. The room itself at first glance seemed almost new to us. Later, shortcomings were found out in the form of noise “from all holes” - the air conditioner was noisy with its blades (outwardly new and modern), the boiler was noisy (because there is no central hot water), the refrigerator was pumping, the toilet bowl, when flushing, sucked water out of the riser for some time, in the shower did not drain well and by the end of the wash you were standing in the pool)... well, + the neighbors were not quiet, but this does not apply to the hotel.

The room had shampoos / soaps, a kettle WITHOUT coffee / tea, 2 to 1.5 water, a modern but small TV, a wardrobe, a bed, 2 rattan chairs on the balcony, a table, a clothes dryer. There was nowhere to sit in the room more than on the bed, there was not even a chair, it created inconvenience! We didn't have to wait, we got it right away! Mosquitoes attack confidently, because. the area is very green.
Territory
She is the city! You really need to go with a map! Lots of streets, easy to get lost! I was very surprised that with a very small number of tourists, the territory is looked after! There is no garbage, everything is green, all the pools work and you can take a towel on each, although often 3 people can sunbathe there (there are like 7 pools, all cold). I did not like that in all these streets we did not find a single bench, there is nowhere to sit down! The bar works alone on the main pool, there is beer, yupi, local alcohol. You can buy ice cream and non-local alcohol. In the evening, this bar is the only crowded place, but it's about 20-30 people at the most (at the time we were there)! The hotel has many private villas and villas for rent. They live in them, because quite a lot of parked cars. I did not find out the prices specifically, but I understand that about $ 250 per month.
Nutrition
This is from the "you won't go hungry" series! The food is very limited in assortment, it is about one meat, a couple of side dishes and vegetables. Sometimes more, but don't roam for sure! To come for a couple of days and feed in general is normal, but I don’t really imagine how it’s possible to eat like this for 10 days! Again, there is a video with breakfast, lunch and dinner, see if it suits you. The canteen itself is quite normal, the boys in clean shirts, fussing, sometimes even bring drinks) There is no coffee machine, there is no bar, you have to ask for beer from another floor) The dining room is on the second floor, the bar is on the first. On the first floor, some animation takes place, which ends with the end of dinner.

From the hotel they take you to the beach, the beach is probably the blackest of all that you managed to visit in a month in Sharm! Small, a sunbed on a sunbed, everything is in the trash, there is like a bar from the hotel, where they poured half a plastic glass of fanta, the bartender said there was nothing more and remained at the bottom in the last 2 liter bottle). An animator from the hotel comes to the beach and conducts various water gymnastics (which is quite creditable)! By the way, people from the Sol Y Mare hotel go to the same beach.
As a total hotel, I can neither recommend nor dissuade! It occupies some niche of its own, the hotel is quiet and calm, not stressful, fresh rooms (but interactive), beautiful pools (cold) and territory, the food is frankly rather weak! But it costs $ 18 per person per day and for this money they feed you (breakfast, lunch, dinner), give you a normal room, somehow entertain you, take you to the beach and pick you up, and still drink at the bar until the night!
By the way, right behind the hotel there is a fixed price store.
In general, this hotel (and how what happens in it and what is fed) should be seen “with your own eyes” on the video before deciding whether to go there or not, because for some it will not work at all, and for some it will come “for happiness”.
