I booked my room for the Great Scarab but they sent me to another location which was the Royal Scarab. I was not pleased because I booked for 4 nights and sent emails that I would be a late check in and updated on my flight delay. Just to find out they gave my prebooked room away and sent me to another property that was not managed properly and breakfast was not served. The room was full of flies not like one or two but a lot. The hallway lights was not on at night when coming back from activities. I feel like I was scammed.

Staff were friendly but poor english Wifi was poor Food was shockingly bad and inconsistent Room not clean and smelt like bleach to the point where i could not sleep Most importantly, one of 2 rooms i booked wasn't available for the first night and they refused to refund me . I have tried to contact expedia and they have not helped either. Also, the camels gather right out the front every day so it stinks and is dirty
