Klasse war die Kommunikation mit Ben , den Gastgeber oder Doha, der Person vor Ort. Ich hatte bei Ben angefragt, ob es möglich sei nur eine Nacht zu buchen. Er war diesbezüglich sehr kooperativ, als er den Grund erfuhr, wieso ich nur für eine Nacht buchen könne. Doha, meine Kontaktperson vor Ort, hat mich an der Anlage empfangen und mir die Wohnung gezeigt. Im Anschluss übergab sie mir den Wohnungsschlüssel und meinte, wenn irgendetwas sei, könne ich sie jederzeit kontaktieren. Die Sauberkeit und vor allem die Größe des Apartments waren sehr gut. Den großen privaten Pool haben wir gleich genutzt. Das das Apartment zwei Balkone hat, ist wirklich klasse. Hier konnten wir in aller Ruhe den Sonnenuntergang genießen. Die Nähe zur Stadtmitte von Sharm El Sheikh ist ok.

Wir können beide hier nichts sagen.

We opted for renting an apartment rather than staying in a resort hotel as we were three adults travelling together. The apartment complex is nicely organised, with pool area close by and a small market. There is a guarded entrance and we felt safe staying there. The apartment is spacious with two balconies, one smaller in the shade and the larger one with sun all day long. There was both a washer and a dishwasher and of course air conditioning in the living room and bedrooms.

When we arrived there was no one to meet us for check-in. After a few phone calls and texting we finally got the keys but were not showed around. The indoor air had a bad smell, like there had been a lot of smoking taking place in the past. This gradually decreased over the next few days with increased ventilation. The cleanliness was ok, but the bathroom is in need of an overhaul. Towels were too few and worn out, in the bedroom closet we found a couple of beach towels that we used. We also had to look for the duvet covers, which we found in the closet, as only the bedsheets and pillow covers had been arranged. We had problem with mosquitoes, one of us got severely affected. We were careful with closing all doors and windows in the evenings and applying anti mosquito lotion, but somehow they seemed to be able to enter the place and bite us. Although the apartment complex is well laid out maintenance seems to have been neglected and it is in a need for overhaul, especially the pool area. The photos on booking.com seem to have been taken in it’s early days prior to detoriation.
