It's been a month since we stayed with a friend in this hotel. Autumn Ukrainian weather has managed to cool negative emotions.
When we were going on vacation with a friend, we chose a hotel to be as close to the sea as possible, since we went to Egypt for the first time and the distance of 2 km from the sea to the hotel was frightening. When the tickets were paid, they came home and started reading reviews about the hotel on the internet....they were just SHOCKED !!! ! BUT the ticket was confirmed by the hotel and there were two ways - to go and see everything "with your own eyes" or not to go at all. We chose the first one.
And now I want to share my experience of staying in this hotel. (honestly? - expected the worst! )
Territory.

Green and well maintained. about the smell - yes there is - this is the smell of special solutions that are watered with plants so that they please the eyes of vacationers. Well, believe me, everything will not grow and bloom so beautifully without chemistry in this desert!!! ! a friend even joked - "it would be better if there was a desert here, but it didn't smell so bad...."
Number.
The rooms are different and with new fixtures and clean sheets and broken locks on the doors and non working remotes and air conditioners. If the hotel is not very busy - you are lucky - and got a good room. We were given a room (at no extra charge) with serviceable locks and air conditioning, the TV remote control was practically not used. The room was cleaned only on request. Bed linen was not changed in 6 days - not once. On the last day, they changed 2 large towels for 2 small ones and 2 sheets.......talkative staff !!!!! : - "beautiful, beautiful... but I won’t change the towels...... at least 1 shukran, at least 40...... ". but toilet paper was brought on demand 15, but 3 rolls! but out of 6 days we only came to the room to sleep and wash ourselves - tired either from the sea or from the excursion. The room was on the ground floor, therefore, there is a high probability of water, both cold and hot - we always had it, however, it was problematic to "leave", but you also need to clean the bathroom at home, and this is WORK!
Food.
You won't die of hunger! there are always vegetables, well, yes, of different freshness - well, if you don’t drink a lot of beer, you can choose, for example, by smell. Excellent pastries - buns are just super! with fruit - tense, they have it, as the waiter said - DECORATION! mainly melon, orange and banana, sometimes dates. Meat is also sometimes eaten - mostly poultry.
BUT I want to say about food: have you seen cellulite in any Arab man (women are generally hard to see there, especially in a bathing suit)? I think no! because they eat, all the same, such food and in moderation! Therefore, I want to say the food is not disgusting, but BALANCED! in combination with marine procedures, if you go to the beach, it will give a wonderful result - a toned, tanned figure!

Yes, low-alcohol beer and plastic cups of 200 ml each, well, take a case of vodka from home - after all, there is a well-known saying for such people - "beer without vodka is money down the drain! "
Animation.
Those people who want to participate in animation entertainment - participate!!!
To those who took part in the game of the animation team very closely: girls, Khalid the animator, first of all - an Arab man - talkative and promising! and "slinging mud" at his team and himself, you, first of all, show your naivety and gullibility - yes, these are not the worst features of a woman's nature. BUT why "to make dirty linen in public"?? ? Do you hope that after your letters on the sites he will have fewer women? You are wrong! He knows how to please women, and his fakir show is at least professional, and his yoga abilities are simply amazing - well done Khalid!
Sea and beach.
SEA - SUPER!!!!! ! behind this here is PARADISE and fly to Egypt. warm water, colorful fish!!! ! The soul rests here and time stops !!!! ! Buy a special slippers and walk and swim calmly, without fear of injuring your feet.
Conclusions and recommendations.
If you are a bore and a melancholic - sit at home! everything will be bad for you here, and even the sea - fish will bite, sea urchins will prick, sand will fall into swimming trunks and stick.
If you are resourceful, enterprising, sociable, but a little tired and wanting to relax, take a chance! Your restless nature will open unlimited possibilities, namely:
1. Starting from the reception (and continuing in the room and... in the dining room) show all your charm and enterprise abilities - from simple smiles to knowledge of the English language (this will show your level of development of a European person, not a Bedouin) and rustle green banknotes.
2. Excursions - from Sharm to Israel - within easy reach! You will touch eternity, the place of the Holy Sepulcher, Golgotha ​ ​ and the stone of chrismation will not leave anyone indifferent, and the Dead Sea is the only one in the world, and it’s even worth smearing yourself with mud!
Before leaving, I recommend visiting several sites and planning a cultural program for yourself.

3. Sea...... at the sea you will relax... maybe....if you are not a pretty girl..... otherwise - you are the favorite object of Arab massage therapists and diving trip managers, they are every day they will tell you compliments, stubbornly seek your name, BUT believe me, this obsession for you, then, in your native country, at work, clasped in a business suit, you will miss it!!!!!
4. Markets and souvenir markets.....haggle!!! ! bargaining is more like a dispute, but truth is born in a dispute, that is, the true price of the goods (well, somewhere like that). I would recommend visiting the "1000 and 1 night" complex, which is located directly opposite the hotel, beautiful architecture, we didn’t go to the cultural program, but maybe unfortunately...
Maybe this is not the best hotel in Egypt for 4 stars, but we flew there with a positive, all the everyday troubles of the hotel have now faded and we only remember the wonderful sea and excursions.
To my question to the person who works in this hotel, "Why does the owner of the hotel dislike his hotel so much? " , they answered me: "he has a wife to love her! " Let's hope that the wife was more fortunate than the hotel. Yes, the hotel really lacks a good manager and, of course, investments: a little better work for the attendants (as a recommendation - an increase in salaries or social packages so that they value their place of work) and a little investment in the well-groomed area between the hotel and the beach, and The main thing - pantone - Guys !!! ! - as a civil engineer I will say - digest the fittings!
