The Good: The main appeal to RSR is its prime location. It is square in the middle of the Dahab boardwalk. Its exteriors are stunning to look at, with well-maintained grounds containing a swimming pool and beautiful flora. The staff was beyond helpful and accessible 24 hours. If I had a problem, they resolved it quickly.
Cons: The rooms are sorely in need of renovation. The TV was tiny, didn't work properly when I arrived, and had limited channels. The bed contained a thin, hard mattress and the linens usually contained a stain or two. The bathrooms had a heavy mildew smell and were in poor condition. Upon arrival, the bathroom light was out and needed to be fixed, the toilet stopped working at one point (they were quick to fix both), and the fixtures were sorely outdated. But for me, the worst part was the horrific in-room Wi-Fi connection. At the tail end of 2018, this should be a basic amenity, but I had to either go to the lobby or a nearby restaurant for a decent connection.
Overall Impression: If you are coming to Dahab to dive on a budget, I would recommend this place. It is centrally located on the Dahab Boardwalk and relatively inexpensive. If you are looking for a luxury resort where you are pampered and can simply relax on a beach, I would look elsewhere. If they made interior renovations and improved their WiFi, I would definitely stay here again.
