10/10 Excellent

Steven

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
After being in Egypt for about a week and staying in pretty cheap accommodations on a budget trip, I can honestly say this hotel was the nicest and leaps and bounds over anywhere else I stayed. The room is huge and has a beautiful balcony. The staff was very friendly and helpful and even let me stay an extra 30 minutes after the normal checkout time until my Uber to the airport. The Check in was a little confusing because they have multiple branches but just call them before you arrive and they will help sort you out. It’s a great place in the center of downtown perfect for a launchpad for trips to Giza or elsewhere. Thanks again from your American visitor! :)
