We arrived in the morning at 9.00, we were told that they would check us in as early as possible, but for now they offered to go to the dining room to have breakfast.
The first impression is a huge hall, a floor polished to a mirror shine, a black marble fountain in the center, air conditioners are working, there are soft sofas, surprisingly not even greasy armrests. We were taken to the room and settled already at 10.30, the concierge showed that everything was working in the room, all the lamps, air conditioning, safe, hair dryer, TV - they gave a tip of Roshen chocolate, he was pleased!
The rooms are full-fledged "Egyptian 5 stars", with worn baseboards, creaky doors, broken corners on the tables and broken handles in the nightstands.
The territory is very large, there are a lot of palm trees, a lot of pools, everything is cleaned constantly day and night due to the fact that seeds and dates are showered from palm trees, the pools are cleaned every day,

The approach to the sea is not convenient to get there - you need to go through the territory, climb the wooden bridge leading across the road to private villas, go down the stairs to the most "impromptu" beach, which is located on the rocks on small areas for 2-4 sun loungers with a canopy from the sun, there is also a cocktail bar where you can take free soft drinks, beer and ice cream, and alcoholic cocktails or drinks for a fee.
Rooms are cleaned every day, tips are not required, but if left, they are cleaned to the maximum - replacement of all towels, regardless of whether they are clean or already used, 2 liters of water, tea, coffee, bed cleaning with linen change.
The occupancy of the hotel, judging by the dining room, is 80% local, the rest are from Ukraine and Armenia, Russia this season does not let anyone go on vacation at all, several vacationers from Belarus met at the airport, but they traveled on their own by flight through Lviv.
The location of the hotel is not very convenient, it is located far from the main road, and you can only get to the old city by taxi for $ 10 one way, if you go officially on a taximeter it comes out a little cheaper than $ 10, but you will be taken along a bypass road to wind up the mileage. . . You can order a car for a trip to the old city at the reception for the same $ 10, but unlike a taxi, you will be driven by a premium class car with air conditioning, and they will wait for you to take you back to the hotel!
The sea and the reef - 8 out of 10. we saw almost all types of fish that live on the sharm reef, entry into the sea is convenient, but there are always local onlookers who are afraid of water and cannot swim, there is no current, but when the north wind blows off the upper warm layer water and water as for this time is cool +28 degrees, compared to what it was - +32. The very area allotted for swimming and snorkeling is very large - up to 300 meters long, you can safely swim and not worry about the "lifeguard" whistling at you coming back!
Food - A very large selection, every day there was seafood, meat - lamb, barbecue, kebab, various soups, grilled shrimp, sea bass, squid salad, Fruits were all in season - melon, mango, pomegranate, grapes, dates, guava . drinks - various juices, if you wish, you can ask the waiter to bring beer or cola - for free, or wine, vodka for money.

If you do not like to dine with the locals - there is an alternative, a restaurant, quiet, calm, whatever you want!
After check-out, each vacationer was given a fabric bag with the hotel logo, inside there was a gratitude for visiting the hotel, a bag of juice, half a liter of water, fruit, and a sandwich packed in foil and film
