The room looked like the photograph - very clean and recently decorated. The staff were all really friendly and helpful. I have stayed in a few hotels in Cairo and will definitely try to come back to the Holy Sheet when I'm next here.

Staff was exception. Any question I had they knew the answer to and were extremely patient. Even arranging a taxi for 5:15 am and walking outside to meet the driver wasn’t a problem. Beds all have curtains for privacy and a lockable luggage area.

I stayed twice

Had a great time at Holy Sheet Hostel. Stayed in an all female dorm which was clean and pretty big. The sitting room with TV is a great place to meet other guests. The bathrooms have a toilet and shower all in one which was a different experience for me but I managed. The breakfast was filling and the staff were great. Thanks to Abdul, Mina and there one other terrific guy whose name I cannot remember but usually work the mid-day shift with curly hair. Because of the location and staff of Holy Sheets I stayed here at the beginning and end of my trip to Egypt.

Lovely

Staff was great, good location. Breakfast was so so. Really comfortable beds with lots of privacy. If you take the bus from airport walk out to Middle island and wait for shuttle bus to the regular bus station. Then take regular bus 10 pounds to city center. Save lots of money over taking a taxi.

- beim Einchecken hieß es, dass Ägypter aus Kairo, Giza und Umgebung nicht hier übernachten dürfen und dass dies ein Gesetz wäre in Ägypten... Davon ist auf der Website überhaupt nichts zu lesen und wir durften bleiben. - in unserem gebuchten Zimmer mit eigener Toilette ist das Badezimmer mit Toilette auf einem Podest mit Glastrennwänden. D.h. es ist oben offen. Somit sollte man keine Scham kennen bzgl gewisser Geräuschpegel oder Gerüche (Fenster aber vorhanden) - der Boden ist mit PVC überdeckt. Leider haben sich mit der Zeit Nägel durchgebohrt die tatsächlich rausstehen an einigen Stellen und zwar so, dass man sich daran ernsthaft verletzen kann, insbesondere an dem Nagel zwischen den beiden Einzelbetten. - ansonsten super tolles Design, tolles altes Haus mit tollem Aufzug und freundliche Mitarbeiter mitten im Zentrum. Die Nebenstraße macht es super ruhig. - wir würden jederzeit wieder kommen, trotz der Kritikpunkte über die wir hinweg sehen konnten.

Excelente opción para tu estancia en el Cairo.

Muy buena atención y servicio, nos quedamos en la habitación privada y todo era muy limpio, cómodo y espacioso. Normalmente evitamos Hostales pero este fue muy bueno. La fachada del edificio y los demás pisos tienen muy mal aspecto pero los pisos donde está el Hostel están muy bien acondicionados.
