The hotel is in a good spot for business purposes, easy to get to/park and a few miles from the old town. It's right on the Red Sea, so it was nice at night to (carefully) cross the dual carriageway and sit and watch the sun go down, which happened about 6:45pm.
The room was OK. Reasonably spacious, clean, and maintained, with an OK bathroom and shower. Motel standard, I'd say. The room had air-conditioning, which at the time of arrival was tuned to a fairly vicious freezer level - this was easily adjusted, though.
Downstairs, the lobby was very nice. Glass, marble, etc. Light and airy with doors opening out onto the highway out front and the nice gardens to the rear. There were tennis courts and leisure facilities that I did not use.
A buffet-style breakfast was served downstairs and was very nice. There was a good selection of cold and salad foods (including humous and smoked salmon) and pastries, doughnuts, and croissants. You could also get a hot plate made for you, with a chef on hand to make you an omelet. There were also sausages and (beef) bacon. Lots of juice, teas and coffees, good staff - very nice.
They also have a free shuttle that picks up and drops off from the airport. This is valuable, as it means you don't have to take your life in your hands with the local taxi drivers.
I ate here and I've written about it in my dining entry.
