Hotel ratings by criteria:
We were at the hotel in early December. In general, I liked everything very much. The hotel is very good: the rooms are clean, cleaned (a couple of times they gave the cleaning lady 10 dirhams each (1 dirham about 4 rubles (in general, the rate is 3.5-3.8 rubles)). The room was given on the 5th floor (overlooking the ocean and swimming pools), it was very calm, despite the presence of a fairly lively street nearby in terms of transport. The furniture in the room was a little old (but not categorically, do not be alarmed (many in Russia have even worse!!! ). In the bathroom, we have tiles on top was a bit covered with mold (don't be afraid, not catastrophic if you don't look closely and you can't see anything. ) In general, the room is not very big, but cozy. The bathroom is large (toilet, bidet, bathtub, sink). The hotel is built perpendicular to the ocean, so from all rooms are visible. The hotel itself is located near the ocean (5-7 minutes walk), and next to a particularly lively part of the promenade (the promenade along the ocean). The hotel staff is polite, at the reception they always helped. True, it was cool in the room (after all, they consider it winter, at night the degree is noticeably lower than daytime temperature), they asked for a heater, although at first they gave a broken one, asking again, they changed it to a working one without any problems. The food at the hotel is delicious, there were no poisonings. Breakfast: eggs, scrambled eggs, lots of buns, sausages, toast, croutons (soft), vegetables. Lunch: rice, potatoes, pasta, local soup, fish, meat, chicken, local vegetable stew. Dinner: according to the composition - lunch menu (only in a different form (for lunch - boiled potatoes, for dinner - baked) + a special person makes pasta with various additives (delicious), there are dinners in different countries (in Moroccan - they cook a local tajine (vegetable , meat, fish, etc. (something like stew in a pot (must try - delicious), couscous, etc. ) also had an Italian dinner during our stay (I won’t describe everyone knows what they eat in Italy). In addition, there is always hot water during meals (you can drink tea, cocoa, coffee) (I just rested in Greece and hot water was only for breakfast). In addition, during the day you can have a snack at the pool bar (salads , pizza). You definitely won't leave hungry. Anamation - well done guys. They smile, entertain, dance with vacationers in the evening. Well done!! ! We left very fond memories. Very sociable guys. Well, well done!! ! and that's it. In general, I highly recommend this hotel. And a little about rest in general. We went with a Pegasus to Esseira. I did not like. Firstly, it’s really expensive! , secondly, the guide says a small serpentine (and it’s pretty steep in places, staggers pretty well (taking into account the fact that I’m not very sensitive to motion sickness in principle - I was let down (my husband was motion sick on the way back) Thirdly, now construction work is going on in the city of Esseira (of course, no one said about it !!! ), everywhere something is dug, buried, dug up. It’s very good that the city is being prepared for the influx of tourists and it will be very beautiful there, but, damn it, you need to warn people (for 46 euros per person I still wanted to see the city, not digging), fourthly, we were dropped off at medina (we walked through these local streets (essentially a bazaar), showed the pancake bastion how dirty it is), fed lunch in this medina itself in a local restaurant (Al Khaimah) (I somehow didn’t have a very lunch (they served vegetables (carrots. potatoes, lettuce, beets), then for 4 they gave a dish with 4-5 types of fish, you can eat, the fish is delicious, but I honestly expected something else (yes, drinks at my own expense)), they gave me 1.5 hours to walk around the bazaar, took me out to the port (everything is very dirty (okay, seagulls, but also people), ran through the port and on the bus, back. In my opinion, money down the drain. A trip to Marrakech (from 69 to 89 euros per person). Calling the doctor and receiving a certificate from him, the Pegasus guide calmly (to my great joy) returned the money for the tour. dirhamah (at a lower rate, but it does not matter). In general, for 30 dirhams there is a bus to Marrakech. Guys, you can really see everything yourself. (Of course, the guide will say that this is such a risk that there are no buses, and buying a tour from the locals is almost a cover for banditry, because they do not have a license, etc. (but the guides have such a job ( and in any country)), and so when we went to / Essaouira, a minibus from the locals followed us, and stopped in the same place where we did (only for a cost of about 300 dirhams, not 46 euros). other countries where I have been (Egypt, Greece so far only) in Morocco, a doctor's call costs 30 euros (the doctor actually took 300 dirhams from the locals). the insurance company to settle the relationship in terms of compensation for my 300 dirhams. Maybe, of course, it was just the insurance company that behaved like that, but Morocco had nothing to do with it. Just having been in Egypt (I hurt my hand there, the doctor came and healed everything, gave me medicines (didn’t pay anyone) In Greece, a friend fell ill (a doctor came, prescribed medicines, t they didn’t give him money for the visit). And then I had to fork out (I just didn’t expect that I had to give money to the doctor right away). Now I will be compensated through the insurance. By the way, the insurance company is ZASO European Travel Insurance (ERV). Ocean. He is magical, fantastic, alive. I really, really liked it. True, in December I did not dare to swim in it (the water was about 19 degrees), but I was running around the water like crazy (with pleasure). Husband bathed. In principle, people also bathe. Still, it is quite hot during the day (+20 and a little higher in the sun). surfers. 5 dirhams - travel by bus 33 to Taghazout place (habitat for local and non-local surfers, 100-150 dirhams - for rent a surf, suit plus instructions and ride the waves. The waves are very convenient for this business. Bazaar. Bargain. 3 times cut the price quoted to you and stand by it Show that you like the thing, but there is no money or the price is high If the price of a local Moroccan does not suit you, turn around and leave, Either call you and sell you at your price, or buy for your price from another "Checked. It works. Do not buy. If someone offers you something like a Berber exhibition, which works once a month, then leaves for other cities and villages. Do not go. Immediately strictly "no" and all. Simply, we bought it and regretted it later. Everything can be calmly bought in the market (local Souk) and bargained for a much lower price. And further. First ask the price, then take the service or product (also a rule). Also bought and regretted. And so, go-go to Morocco, to Beach Albatross. It was very nice there and despite some troubles, I really did not want to leave. I wish I could go back to Morocco! Yes Yes Yes. What about Beach Albatross? Yes Yes Yes.
