We spontaneously went to Egypt and took the first thing that turned up not expensive. Well, what "not expensive", such a hotel. The only thing left of 5 * is the first line, coral reef and views. Well, I'll tell you everything in order:
1. We flew to Sharm around 4 am, arrived at the hotel around 6. . . And we were told to check in from 14. What should I do? To solve a problem. For 20 money we were promised a room by 11:00, but the bracelets are also at this time (breakfast ends at 10:30, everything is thought out)))). I had to push the reception and they gave out bracelets on the sly from other tourists from under the floor. So at least we got breakfast. As far as we saw many tourists so until 14:00 and slept in the lobby.
2. What can I say about the room: judging by the reviews, by 11:00 we were really given a very good room by the standards of the hotel, because it was relatively clean, there were beach and shower towels, soap and shampoo, a flat-screen TV , and most importantly REFRIGERATOR and HOT WATER. Apparently this is a huge rarity. According to the hotel guide, 10 percent of rooms with refrigerators! But everything is so old and worn out. But if you do not pay attention to this - everything worked, did not crumble. In general, we were lucky with the number.

3. Canteen: yes, this is a canteen, because It's hard to call a restaurant. Dirty, the staff puts the forks and knives (this means 2 things: firstly, the table is free, secondly, where were these knives and forks before). Tables, chairs killed to death. The food is so-so, we were not hungry, but also no pleasure. Potatoes, rice, beef, chicken, eggs, pasta, soups, vegetables, pastries, fruits, drinks in any quantity. But the staff gives out. We didn't row everything, we took what we knew. There are a lot of dubious salads, such as vermicelli-sausage-tomato-cabbage)))) It seems that they mix what they didn’t eat last time. Feta is very tasty, pastries too. And, a separate respect to the mangalshchik, he didn’t do it very badly! But no frills. Gourmets in the hotel have nothing to do.
4. The hotel itself is located on the first line, there are a lot of terraces, photo zones, a 3-level beach. The building was once pompous, it is clear that when it was built, it still thought of 5 *... But since then it seems that nothing has ever been repaired, and it is already 15 years old. Everything is very old, shabby. There is an acute shortage of personnel on all lines, from cleaners to cooks with bartenders. It needs to be tritely washed, furniture replaced at least in the lobby, bars and canteen - and there will be sweetie, but apparently the management is banal rednecks. Therefore, there is no one to repair, to clean up qualitatively. The room was never cleaned for 7 days, the bed was not changed, towels too. Toilet paper was taken directly from the cleaners (and it will take a lot, because the water there is radically different from ours). But the staff itself, which is available, is very positive, positive and responsive !! ! Compliments, jokes. In general, the staff is super, although they plow for 14 hours a day.
5. The beach is a separate issue. The greediness of tourists is simply amazing, because they spread their towels on the sunbeds in the morning, on some they lie untouched until the evening. If it weren't for this goon, then there would be enough space for everyone. Not everyone lies on the beach all the time, someone leaves, someone comes. It was annoying. Sun loungers are also from the time of the construction of the hotel. But!!! ! The sea itself is wonderful, the reef is beautiful, the fish are cool!! ! We had a lot of fun with this! So don't forget masks, snorkels and other fins! There is no wind, no waves, in this respect the hotel is located chic!
HACKS:
- near SOHO square, 15 min walk. There are a lot of discos, restaurants, a singing fountain, and most importantly, there is duty free, for which you have 48 more
hours after arrival to skimp. One passport can buy 1 bottle of alcohol and 2 packs of cigarettes. Open until 23:00.

- alcohol in the hotel is rare G, so bring it with you or buy it in duty free.
- you definitely need a fumigator and sprays from mosquitoes, they will gobble them up in an hour !!!
- You can get to the Old City by minibus for 1 dollar for two. If they soar for a dollar per person, they have a price list in the upper right corner of the windshield, poke the nose of the carrier at him and he calms down.
