We have just returned from a week's stay. It is difficult to clearly rate this hotel. Starting with the pluses, it's a nice beach with an almost sandy entrance (although it's worth having shoes for rocks) and plenty of comfortable sun loungers. A nice pier from which you can go snorkeling in the sea (although there is little reef). The swimming pools are also ok, although sometimes you have to fight for sunbeds. Nice view and tasty Ala Carte restaurant. As for the minuses, in our opinion, poor food, unwashed drink cups, poor quality alcohol and "cola, fanta, etc." drinks from drink dispensers. There's also a small selection. You really have to pay extra for juices. Not much seafood, we only saw shrimp once. There are also long queues for dishes served by staff, which extends the time of serving meals. During a barbecue/dinner on the beach, too few places to sit and terrible queues. Poor pasta, pizza and sandwiches 3/10. There are a lot of Arabs who behave terribly in the common areas, cut into queues, eat and drink and litter in the pool. The rooms are outdated, but they will work. Especially the bathrooms should be better to this standard. The hairdryer didn't work and the bathroom was sometimes dirty. Although the staff tried their best, especially Ahmed. He is very polite and helpful. The hotel deserves 2 or 3 stars. The hotel shop is poorly equipped with souvenirs. Reception polite and helpful. Bartenders vary (sometimes they pour stale, warm beers instead of fresh ones from the fridge, and you have to pay attention.) Sometimes they even try to give you beakers of three beers... Very long distance to Hurghada and turistic places
