Nice and clean room with kind staff. Stayed 2nights with my husband. We used taxi from the airport to get the hotel. You can book minibus ride for Abu Simbell temple or a car ride if it’s not fully booked. Water pressure was a little low but you can take hot water shower. The road is a bit noisy till around midnight but we tired travelers were able to fall asleep. After all it was nice and clean, comfy hotel. Highly recommended.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff did their jobs and my room was ok. You get what you pay for. While certain staff were excellent not all. The building has multiple business and the elevator sometimes is occupied making it simpler to climb stairs. Lots of trash in and around the building. The room itself is good. My a/c was ok but had to leave it on all the time to cool the room. Overall it’s what I paid for and I’m ok with it.

Central & comfortable

The rooms were clean, well-appointed and large. The hotel is central and very good value for money. The entrance and building itself, leave a fair bit to be desired but don't let that put you off.
