Scam

TOTAL SCAM. Bogus listing. Arrived at the property and there is nobody there and massive construction taking place next door. Calling the number listed connected me to a man claiming to be in Cairo who said he’s never heard of the property, although in the same breath he apologized for a competitor website’s mistake (I booked through Hotels, so his mention of that other site right there reveals he knows more than he was letting on and that this is a scam). I’m out all the money I paid, and Hotels has not refunded me. Avoid this dishonest place.
