Hotel ratings by criteria:
Yes, the rooms are really huge, the hotel is beautiful, the sea is warm, clean, the sand is super, BUT the level of service leaves much to be desired, and if you do not speak the language, then you can forget about the Magdia resort. I speak decent English, but the problem is that they hardly know it. In the course of French, German, Italian.
We arrived at the hotel and were given a STANDARD room. Sheer laughter: instead of the declared loggia, a large number of separate bathrooms and a safe in the room, they gave us everything exactly the opposite. I went to the reception with a request to exchange the room, they smiled sweetly at me and said that it was a completely standard room and there were no free rooms, that's all. I had to, in a rather insistent manner, disagree with this. As a result, the number was changed to a really standard one, large and with all of the above. Further . . the room was cleaned every day, but very mediocre, without straining.
The food is average, very repetitive (by the end of the second week my son was ready to throw up on eggs for breakfast). During a morning excursion, breakfast, which in hotels usually comes in a truncated version or is issued as a ration for the road, here looking like coffee and bread and butter.

Still very annoying Arabs, but this is already apparently a mentality and you just have to put up with it. But it is very unpleasant when, after swimming, you find a cute smiling Arab on your sunbed, wearing my glasses. I was ready to beat them with slippers. Well, if for someone it's all nonsense, then it's worth a trip.
A beautiful city, awesome fortresses, sand and sea - beyond praise. Not expensive prices. Dinner for two without alcohol - costs around 10-15 USD. Like this.
