не ходите, дети, в Африку гулять do not go, children, to walk in Africa

I warn you right away, I have been to Egypt more than once.
The HOTEL is located in a pleasant, wind-protected location. And this is perhaps the only plus. Feeling abandoned and useless. There are two pools on the territory - one blooms, stinks and is a breeding ground for mosquitoes, the second is cold, without heating, indeed, as they wrote here earlier, it is used by tourists to rinse their feet after the beach. During the week of staying at the hotel, only once was a whip boy who was catching obvious garbage with a net.
Every other day, at five in the evening, prophylaxis against insects is carried out. Run! Run urgently to the rooms, wall up the doors and windows. It is still possible to survive fumigation with kerosene, but when they kill ants, splashing an incomprehensible liquid under their feet, this is UNBEARABLE!

All ROOMS overlook the Gulf of Aqaba. ALL! Naturally, the view from the third floor is more picturesque than from the first. Attention of those who still decide to go to this hotel and who will be accommodated on the first floor - the balcony door DOES NOT CLOSED. There is no safe in the rooms, as well as a hair dryer, if you rely on a kettle, it is not here either. The bathrooms are in a terrible state, the water is yellow, be careful with things - it leaves rusty spots. You can drain it (water), but it's not at all fast. A hot ode, if suddenly there is, then this is real boiling water - be careful. Cleaning in the rooms, the boys are diligent and wind the swans and scatter the petals, but the floors are washed with a smelly rag, dirty water and water is not particularly collected, the tables are not trained to wipe at all. But unobtrusive. Cleaning the veranda-balcony adjacent to the room is a separate song, it is not cleaned, i. e. bottles, garbage and even hookahs (which can be ordered in a cafe and brought to you directly "at home") will be removed on the third or fourth day.
The BEACH is located a hundred meters from the building, the passage through an underground tunnel. Half of the sun loungers are physically worn out, the entrance to the water is only in special slippers. The water is clean, but there are plenty of unkind living creatures. The only person in the hotel who honestly performs his duties is only a whipboy, although not such a fight anymore. You get towels without cards, only on the beach, you can take them to the pool. Leave it wherever you like. On the beach, in the left corner, it is customary to walk camels, which diligently piss the territory and the smell is appropriate.
FOOD. Normal food is missing as a class. It is not recommended to be late for breakfast, dinner, food is scarce and not enough for everyone. Don't expect variety. He is not. Dinner is prepared long before seven o'clock - wrapped in foil and served slightly warmed up. Vegetables are not washed, i. e. cucumbers and tomatoes are usually served with the ground. The salad is the same story. Fruits - tangerines, guava (beaten and rotten). Baking is not enough and it is also recommended to hurry. There are cafes and bars on the territory, but they DO NOT WORK. You can eat at lunch only in Diener, the leftovers from breakfast for crazy money - the average bill per person is $ 30 (in the Hilton, two km away, pizza is $ 10).
ENTERTAINMENT. There are two of them in the hotel - find food outside the territory and carry it into the territory. You can find it a kilometer from the hotel towards the border with Israel, there is a small market - you can buy water, doshirak-type noodles (a very valuable find, by the way), some fruits. NO BEER! Those. You can buy it only in the first two days of your stay in the country in duty-free on the territory of the Hilton hotel. Smuggling the loot into the hotel without a scandal is UNREAL. But probably. Sunsets across the beach are perfectly visible to the guards. Bags are shuffled and baksheesh is required. But you don't have to give it. A piece of paper written by kind tourists will be poked into the nose, on which it is written that it is absolutely impossible to bring water, juices and beer into the territory. I still don’t understand what bananas and noodles have to do with it : ). In this case, it is recommended to make a scandal with a trip to the hostess of the hotel Nadine. She allows you to carry everything except beer. Those. strong alcohol, juice, fruits, etc. , bring it.

On the whole and in general. If you go, then only with a company and only ready for all of the above. The hotel is three stars with an interference. At the same time, choose a flight through Taba, and only inexpensively. Take a kettle/kettle with you. Do not take children, there is nowhere for them to have fun. It is almost impossible to endure all this for more than three days.
