Mersa Matruh Apartments

It's been a few days since I finally had time to write. This hotel was also temporarily booked because the previous booking was cancelled. After arriving, I saw that it was actually next door. The hotel has a beach that is connected to several other hotels. The sand is very soft, but the place is also small. The water is still a little cold. Speaking of the hotel's facilities, this hotel was newly opened a few months ago, and you can still smell the decoration when you enter the room. The decoration style is similar to the domestic Hanting. However, there is no hair dryer in the room, and neither does the front desk. It is unbelievable that a hotel with more than 800 yuan per night does not have a hair dryer. Moreover, after staying for two days, the water and electricity would be cut off from time to time, and the electricity would be cut off (for tens of seconds), and I was stuck in the elevator for a minute on the last night, which was terrible. The equipment is in serious need of repairs. In the end, the service is very good. This hotel includes breakfast and dinner, and the food is okay. My friend had an upset stomach and specially cooked porridge for us. In general, the cost performance is half, and I hope to improve it.

There are limited means of transportation to get to this hotel. It took about 3.5 hours by UBER from Alexandria, costing 1400 yen in local currency, but UBER could not be used from the hotel to Marsa Matruh, so I had to call a taxi, which took about 45 minutes and cost 600 yen. Also, communication at the front desk was not good at dispatching the car, which was very unpleasant. There seems to be no taxi nearby, so it takes a long time to call one, so I recommend requesting a taxi at least an hour in advance. There is nothing nearby, and it is a different story if you want to enjoy the pool and the sea on the hotel grounds, but if you are thinking of sightseeing from the hotel to Marsa Matruh, I think it would be better to stay at a hotel in Marsa Matruh, considering the round-trip taxi fare and travel time. It may be due to the season, but I felt that the beach had strong waves and was not suitable for swimming or for children to play. The rooms are clean, but the amenities are basic. Drinks in the room other than water are charged separately. It is not all-inclusive. Dinner was included in the price of the room, but the only drink available was water; other soft drinks and coffee were charged extra.
