Review:
I don’t like to write essays since school, but I want to warn future vacationers, or those who are thinking about vain expectations.
I hope this review will help make your stay more pleasant in a very good hotel.
I must say right away that I had a good rest, everything was fine with me, I didn’t experience any negative, because I knew the problems, and when I arrived, I competently avoided them.

So let's start with the disadvantages.

1. This hotel has its own ghetto. These are the three hundredths. These houses look scary: one-story, without beauty around, tightly set. They settle there only on the way. I was the 6th in line, and when I was in the first five, they famously gave out keys in 300 numbers. I said that this is not the first time here, and that I really do not want to be in the 300s.
No objections - as a result, a very comfortable room 933.
2. There are two food systems: All inclusive and snackall. Snackall - different in that there is no lunch. More precisely, the hotel decided not to give out fast food to everyone during the day, but to arrange it in the form of lunch for snackall. Cutlets, sausages vegetables bread soda. There is no tea. There are not enough places, people eat on the street on benches, etc. If you are traveling for a long time or with a child - no snackall.
3. I have never seen such a shortage of meat. Dinner - always a crowd standing in line for meat. Usually in hotels they stand behind something special from meat, but here, in principle, behind meat. There is a grill restaurant. You need to have time to sign up there only early in the morning. It's full of meat. Why such a bias is unclear. One is empty, the other is dense. However, you can sign up at least every day, just to be in time. Fights will probably start in the season : ) Those who snackall can only sign up for dinner, all inclusive - lunch or dinner.
4. After dinner, only one bar is open and that is inside the building.
You can't sit on the street, you can't drink. Maybe not the season though.
5. No animation, since in Sharm the problem of leisure can be solved even without a hotel, this is not Makadi.
6. On the beach, people lie quite densely, not Sochi, of course, but it annoys some, but it’s normal for me.
7. A mosque is heard (calls to pray). As we know, 5 times a day: at dawn, at sunset and 3 more times. I repeat, it annoys many, but I even liked it.
8. The toilet on the beach is a bit high. I confess I don’t do anything in the water, but there was no queue for beer, so it was often tiring to stomp upstairs.
9. impose a paid minibar. It is better not to take anything out of the refrigerator. and then they can blame you. Once you get it, you use it.

10. Since everything in the room is stylized antique, there are no euro windows, there are ordinary antique shutters, again, the sound insulation is poor. It didn't bother me, I lived in a quiet corner.

Now dignity
1. beautiful territory, all sorts of landscape designs, etc. are on top.
2.
well-groomed territory, buildings, rooms, in short, both inside and outside. No cracked varnish on the boards, everything is painted over, smeared, etc. In general, as after repair. The exception is the ghetto of 300 rooms and a snack bar for snackalls
3. room of good size, excellent condition and style.
4. sea and beach - and sand and beautiful corals and the complete absence of wind. People even come to gawk at these corals for money.
5. good food, oh, there would be no queues.
6. location of the hotel - nearby and there is a supermarket "247" with fixed prices, and not far from the old market, and the water park is nearby, and you can get to the bustle of naama bay if you wish for 5 bucks.
