Pro: Breakfast was delicious! Twin bed room was a good size and had a big opening window. Con: The entrance to the building can feel a little sketchy the first time as the hotel is on the upper floors of a mostly-empty building. But it is safe, we felt comfortable coming and going day and night, and the hotel’s space is bright and welcoming.

Great location

I like that this location is perfect. The WiFi stopped working after our first nights stay, but other than that the room was comfortable and clean. Room also need an iron and hairdryer. The main entrance/ lobby can also use a facelift, but great staff and great location.

The hotel is in a commercial normal building where they have certain rooms on levels 4 and 6, the restaurant is on floor 6, open 24/7, but food is only from 08-11 for breakfast. Very small rooms, however it was clean, so no worries.

The hotel is located on a busy street with lots of places buy clothing. Just a few short minutes away are restaurant. Although there are lots of cars and honking, the hotel rooms are relatively quiet. The only downsides experienced was there is no maid service everyday, so I had to ask for new towels each day. Also, the wall AC was going in and out.

This hotel is an absolute bargain for the price; don't expect anything fancy - it is suited more for backpackers and those on a tight budget. It is located in the heart of Cairo and is extremely convenient; if you are looking for somewhere quiet to stay then this is not the place as it is located on the main high street. The hotel is located on the 4th and 6th floor of an old apartment block. The apartment block is very old and could do with a revamp. The lobby area of the hotel is on the 4th floor and some rooms are also located here; the lobby is very dark and needs better lighting. We stayed on the 6th floor which was much newer and had a nice kitchen area. The rooms are very big with high ceilings and they are clean. The most frustrating thing about the hotel were the en-suite bathrooms. Water was unpredictable and sometimes did not work which was very annoying. Staff were extremely friendly, had a smile and were always willing to help - you can't go wrong with the price...

Nie wieder Das Zimmer war nicht verfügbar , weil man für den Aufenthalt für die vorherigen Gäste angeblich aus Versehen verlängert hat . Man hat uns in ein anders Hotel gebracht . Im Zimmer war das Bad sauber, ansonsten war alles mittelmäßig. In der zweiten Nacht hat uns ein etwas besseres Zimmer gegeben. Frühstüchsqualutät ist unterdurchschnittlich. Die Mitarbeiterin an der Rezeption wollte auf gar keinen Fall den Fehler zugeben und behauptete, dass Sie uns einen Gefallen getan hat und uns in ein anderes Hotel untergebracht. So eine Frechheit und Unprofessionalität hat man selten gesehen.

Tener la habitación junto a la recepción. No hay isonorizacion entre la recepción y la habitación, es una puerta con el cristal pintado solamente. El balcon de la habitación da a un lateral y no son para nada agradables las vistas laterales. , ruidoso y lúgubre.

Um pouco difícil de encontrar

Difícil de localizar. A recepção do hotel fica no 4º andar de um prédio antigo… tem uma pequena placa na porta do prédio indicando o hotel, mas não muito fácil de visualizar. Para subir, você tem que pegar um elevador que parece daqueles de hotel assombrado. 😂 O quarto é ok pelo valor cobrado, mas achei a rua um pouco muvucada e pegaria um outro hotel numa próxima oportunidade.

Dificulty

The hotel is in a very old building, perhaps millenary, and the signs are horrible, there is not even a hotel identification on the facade. The reception is on the fourth floor and the room is on the sixth, but the elevator is very, very old and dangerous.
