Изрядно потрепан кризисом. Pretty battered by the crisis.

rested family August-September 2017. This is the 5th train to Egypt. Of course, the crisis hit them hard. The decline in the industry is very noticeable.
Check-in - we arrived at 22.30, took shape, gave a number - "the best room". Well, on the outskirts of the territory, the room is shabby, although part of the hotel has recently been renovated, but mostly Arab guests are accommodated there. The refrigerator barely worked, it started freezing on the second day, the TV was antediluvian, with a kinescope. Removed badly. They will make the bed, change the towels, bring tea, water - and that's it. They didn't even sweep every day. In the corners, under the bed, dirt, debris.
The food is pretty monotonous. Some frills of delicacies - do not expect. Everything more or less valuable - a person on the distribution and as a result of the queue. Fruits are very poorly represented - tasteless melon, oak pears, sometimes bananas in limited quantities, sometimes dates, sometimes unripe. One consolation - oranges, but also not of the best quality. Drinks - local cola, sprite, fanta, terrible taste. Powdered juices and diluted alcohol. Well, beer and wine, because in the original packaging (kegs, big run) from the tap is even nothing. A la carte is better, it’s worth going, but it’s difficult to sign up, they work 2-3 days a week.

You can only get a towel in one place, near the large pool. The slide works intermittently and not every day. The pool was closed twice in 14 days. Chlorinate moderately, the eyes do not eat away. The beach is a large area, with terraces, grottoes and an open area. Fairly stretched in length but there is only one bar. Animators are working. Great diving, highly recommended. Especially if you find Igor, a tall, elderly, gray-haired man. He is not in the state, but in love with the sea. All instructors are on the level, but try to get to him.
There are a couple of supermarkets within a 10-minute walk, another 10-15 bazaar and a little further the center of 1001 nights, around which there are not expensive shops. We bought textiles - T-shirts, T-shirts, sweaters - all for $4-5-10. We also bought mangoes for $1 kg, now it's the season. Taxi - no more than $ 1, there will be the same amount on the counter. Although, as a rule, it is easy to walk there, back with purchases by taxi.
In general, the hotel is average, there will be nothing phenomenal, it justifies its price. The staff is good, friendly and hard working. It is not expensive to relax without hassle. The main thing is not to find fault with trifles, a crisis is a crisis, it affects the gloss strongly.
The final chord at the airport pretty spoiled the impression. After all the checks and inspections, a couple of monkeys in uniform purposefully took out a camera and took away "finger" NcMg batteries, which do not fall under any restrictions. Still sitting, smiling, looking at the trophy. The batteries must have run out in the remote control. What would you strangle them, freaks. The desire to return to NG is gone.
