Hotel ratings by criteria:
I really liked this hotel before. And advised everyone. Now on the contrary - I will dissuade.
Why? Now I will tell.
Let's start with the description on the site. What is not true:
"8 restaurants" - 2
* car and motorcycle rental - refers to a taxi.
* cable TV - yes, cable, but only 13 programs, of which only 2 in English, and 1 in Russian RTR Planet. Everything else is in Arabic and 2 in Hebrew. There is nothing to watch.
* direct phone - no, you have to go to the reception to order a conversation, then run to the room or speak directly to the reception.
* safe - no, only at the reception you can deposit something.
* Private sandy beach. Yes, but with a bunch of stones and cigarette butts, but that's not the worst. Waves throw out dead little hedgehogs, and no one cleans this stuff. You can't walk on the sand without shoes. Entry into the sea through a small, thin entrance carved into the rock. It is difficult to call this rock corals.
And there are cockroaches!
But they are not in the rooms, they flock to the light, especially accumulate at night in the transition to the beach. Such fat cockroaches can be seen in the Kiev Zoo.
There are two pools. There is a lot of sand and mud at the bottom of the pool. They are brought by the wind and people on their feet from the beach. I did not notice in a week that they cleaned the bottom. There is so much bleach in the pools that diving with your head is somehow dumb. But bleach will kill all the infection in small wavkas.
Now the very reason why I decided to write a review.
On the last day, I decided to pay off in the evening for everything I took at the bar - mostly beer,
which, by the way, is wildly expensive - 19 pounds (or hryvnia) per bottle. You won’t take anything else alcoholic - the prices are, well, very wild for wine and everything else. 50 grams of vodka on the menu costs 149 pounds (hryvnia). They really don't like alcohol. Duty free in the first two days saved if you walk 2 km to Israel.
I settled for zero. In the evening.
There are still a few pounds left. From that moment on, he took everything for cash.
I remember exactly.
Departure at 6 am. Suddenly another account appears. For two beers. 38 pounds.
I remember exactly - I paid for everything. Foaming at the mouth, I prove to Nadia, the owner, whom I considered a sane business woman, that yesterday I paid for everything, took two more bottles at night and paid 20 pounds for each (no one will bring change anyway). It turned out that the boy wrote down somewhere in the computer what I took, but did not write down there that I had already paid. They made me pay again. Funtikov was not, had to pay 8 dollars. No one will give up. 8 bucks = 44 pounds, two beers = 38.6 pounds I gave for medicine to a boy with a bad memory.
Now the guide is a miracle from TezTour, which for convenience was called simply Igor, does not defend the interests of his tourists. I explained everything to him, Nadia explained everything. He says, honey, stay, you'll settle the issues, then you'll come to the airport by taxi.
I thought it was more expensive for myself - you can’t prove anything, gave them 8 bucks, promised to tell everything on the forums so that Madame Nadia would have more cash flow. The day before, we had talked about when she would finish building her house on the mountain above the hotel, so far she had only done the foundation and the lantern. She was very sweet and welcoming. But when, through the fault of the hotel, there were misunderstandings with the payment for 2 bottles of beer, which I DEFINITELY already paid for, she was ready to pull out her teeth, I had never seen her with such wild eyes. At the same time, she can very nicely communicate with all the guests of the hotel about anything, complain about life and Russians, "oh, those russians ... "
How many did not explain to her the difference - and did not understand. She saw how Russians break off corals and take out live shells with snails from the sea, and bring them to the room for beauty. They won’t be able to pick it up anyway - so let it lie on the TV at least.
I told her that this is a purely Russian attitude to natural resources, Ukrainians will not do this. It's the Russians who have a lot of gas, oil and bags, and they don't care what and why they kill. And Ukrainians are more European people and have a more humane attitude towards nature. To which she replied - I don't care, they are all the same to me. Okay, I think. May your business prosper with this attitude.
A pack of Marlboro cigarettes was carried from the restaurant for about 40 minutes ...Three phone calls to the restaurant, each time the answer was "5 minutes". But you want to smoke ...3 bucks per pack, this is still acceptable. But the service...stunned...
This is not all-inclusive. Tea in the morning at breakfast - golly lipton, solid chemistry - 2 bucks! And the same thing in the evening. They have no other teas for tourists. Now multiply (2+2)x7=28 bucks for a goofy lipton! I bought a lot of water and Pepsi at the baraz, and defiantly went with water for dinner.
-Drink?
-Yes! : ) I have my drink : )
Talked to one worker, nice guy, good English.
He said two interesting things.
one.
In the passage to the beach, if you go down the stairs from the hotel, there is a mask hanging over the door. It turns out that this mask is some ancient curse symbol, supposedly hanging there so that less hard workers go to the beach. And I noticed that only one shot goes to the beach, which gives out towels, which has almost no teeth, and there are obvious problems with the head. All the time he pesters with some kind of idiotic questions and says hello 5 times a day.
2. Hard workers in the hotel receive 365 pounds per month + food and lodging for the night in a barrack behind the hotel. These are shelves with mattresses.
Now about the guide Igor.
He works TezTure recently, about two months. Lives at the base of TezTour in Salah el-Din, 2-3 km from Tobia to the right.
There were 8 people from Ukraine in my arrival. In theory, we had 2 guides. This type Igor and the second, I don’t know their names. The day before departure there was no sign, no notice of departure. The people began to worry, to come up with an independent taxi ride to the airport.
A call to the second guide on a mobile phone - does not take, resets. It turns out that someone offended him and he is so touchy and does not want to talk to anyone. A call to the first guide Igor. He DOES NOT know that we have a departure tomorrow! It was I who told him that we had a departure at 6 in the morning, but he had to tell me! I apologized, arrived at the hotel, started checking - yes, it’s true, and began to organize a departure for tomorrow and notify everyone.
There were 2 Israeli couples in this hotel for the Jewish New Year. And they also told an interesting thing. It turns out that, according to Israeli intelligence, Al-Qaeda was slightly offended by Russia for the fact that Israel honored the Russians with the honor of coming to Israel without a visa. Russia has finished its showdown with Chechnya. Al-Qaeda has its tail between its legs and is looking for ways to annoy the Russians. Where do they rest? That's right - in Sharm. Something like this is expected in the near future. Therefore, the Israelis will not go further than the Hilton or Taba.
Although the Hilton has been blown up a couple of times already. Gambling is prohibited in Israel. Therefore, only the most daring and reckless Israelis go to play in two casinos - one in the Hilton, the second in this Hotel. This means that these two places are potential targets. I won't go to Tobia again. If you go to Egypt, then only further away, something like Hurghada.
In addition, in the first 4 days after arrival, I and all the hotel guests heard shots from Jordan. Absolutely real, not blank cannon shots. They thought that the war was starting, and it was time to reel in the fishing rods. It turned out that this is how they spoil the holidays for the Jews - so that they do not relax too much. The Arabs are still bitches, and no one will convince me that in Egypt they are somehow different in any direction.
When you just arrived and got on the bus, your guide will definitely show you a cross in the form of a tattoo on one hand and will fill you in that there are 10% of Christians in Egypt and that he is one of those 10%. Complete bullshit.
He just rubs himself into your confidence in the hope of not a tip and a friendly attitude, and without such a tattoo he simply won’t be hired. So to believe them is like believing in the inscriptions on the fences.
This time we flew with the company VETROV ROSE. Czech airline. The plane is good, the flight attendants are rare creatures. If you ask for a glass of water outside of the time when they are serving drinks, they just send you a fax. One young lady drank a little before the flight and was already almost sober, she had a dry spell - she asked for a glass of plain water - they didn’t give her water, and they threatened to hand her over to the police at the airport, for supposedly a brawl, but the stardesses themselves staged a brawl.
They flew back with the same heads (golka - in Czech - a girl). And the same young lady, the same situation - everyone drinks something from duty-free. The Czechs run and yell something there in their wonderful language, and cover everyone as they want. Drunken bastards, etc. They don't understand that people have a vacation - and they are at work.
Once upon a time, I worked in the Czech Republic for 3 months and I can get a little bit into what they babble about, but they don’t even suspect it. There was only one of our stewardesses. I decided to joke a little - girls, in my homeland at the airport, I have a lot of acquaintances in the police and in the security at the airport ...Would you like to spend three days in a monkey house for a boorish attitude and infringement of the rights of passengers, maybe compensate moral damage through the court . . They understand what country they are flying to and what kind of people and laws we have ...They ran sharply as they should and brought everyone everything they asked for and as many times as they asked.
With this payment of double bills and swearing on the road, with a Czech plane, the whole impression of the rest was spoiled. I think that now I will return to the all-inclusive system again.
Choose any other hotel, and if you go to Madame Nadia, say hello to her cash flow.
A thinking person, let him understand the above.
Why? Now I will tell.
