The hotel is beautiful, cozy, everything is new, everything is beautiful in the room, everything works. There is a kettle, tea and coffee, there was always 4 bottles of water. I was pleasantly surprised that the Internet is free and in the room, not of the best quality, but you can even call.
The food is monotonous, but tasty. Almost every evening there were fried shrimp or squid.
Not pleasantly surprised by the staff at the reception. Upon arrival at the hotel in the heat, they gave us a key and indicated with a hand where to go and check in. The territory is large, the building is 3 storey, there are signs, but finding the number on your own was a challenge. We found it, we go in, and there is a view of the wall. Despite the fact that the hotel was 40% full, they specifically gave this room, as it turned out, we were not the only ones who got a room with a similar view, who did not give money right away at the reception. Then we waited for 40 minutes for our luggage, we had to go back to the administrator for it and then wait again.

The average staff is quite intrusive, brought our suitcases and says "give me a big chocolate bar. " In principle, swans were made for a chocolate bar, which was pleasing to the eye)
Bartenders are on their own wave, they do not always see the client in front of their noses and severely ignore them. Girls and guys animators, pleasant, sociable.
There are many pools on the territory, it's nice to say that there was no smell of bleach and the water was excellent.
Next is the beach: full of sunbeds and umbrellas, there are trash cans everywhere, a bar is open, in general, everything is fine.
The sea: and this is the most important)) it simply does not exist) there is no coral reef and do not hope! Even dead! The sea left in the morning - instead of the sea there was land, and then water up to the bones and in the middle of the lower leg 100 meters, then the sea was waist-deep and this is the maximum. And in the afternoon the sea returned and then near the shore it was 100 meters knee-deep, and then chest-deep or not a tall person up to the neck. But the bottom was always felt. The sea itself is clean, transparent, some small fish swim, but these are not the ones near the corals. Coral shoes can not be taken, the bottom is clean sand and algae.
There is a pontoon, the deepest place where you dive from it is up to your chest.
If you are with young children then not so bad, you can splash around, but if you go to Sharm for its underwater views, then this is not the right hotel.
There is not a big market near the hotel, at most 10 points, nothing special is for sale, the sellers are rude and dull. But there are two pharmacies, one of which is state-owned.
The hotel has not bad animation and disco until 12 o'clock.
It's a long way to go to the old town.

I was very surprised and upset by the resourcefulness of the hotel guide and the Anex company. At the meeting, the guide does not say anything about the case, except for talking about excursions, they even began to sell once free excursions to shop tours, adding to them a low-quality fish restaurant. That is, tourists in the very heat of 42 degrees baked in the sun first to take a picture near the "peace to the whole world" ball, then an oil shop, a perfume shop, a primitive souvenir shop, then a dilapidated amusement park where nothing worked and there was nowhere to sit and then Aliluya ! , a cafe with soup made from squid pieces and 5 shrimp garnished with cucumber and parsley +0.5 of water. That's all for $15. Don't get fooled!
To sum up, I liked the hotel, but not the sea. Probably wouldn't go back there again. Better a slightly outdated number than wallowing in a puddle instead of the sea.
