Nice hotel, excellent for location and price although hard to find as no sign outside and it's on the 4th floor of a building. The staff were awesome people, very accommodating. New side will be nice when completed.

Convenient location in Downtown Cairo

Friendly staff who go the extra mile to help, even sent a taxi to pick me up from the airport at no extra charge. Hotel is located on the 4th floor from which you need to take a vintage caged lift which looks a bit dangerous at first but is a joy to ride in nevertheless! Rooms are generally clean and staff will ask whether you need cleaning/laundry services regularly. Wifi is excellent. Hotel is strategically located in downtown Cairo and is a stone's throw from McDonalds, Costa Coffee, other conveniences and a 10 minute walk to the Egyptian Museum. However traffic sounds from the street can get annoying at times. Downtown Cairo can be a bit confusing to walk around so do ask the staff for a map or advice. A good hostel for travellers looking for a no-frills place to stay in at a reasonable price.

Central location.

Such a great price, everything should be judged with that in mind. Airport pickup, good wifi and nice simple breakfast. The problem is traffic noise, it is best to plan for late starts and sleep after midnight. 5 minutes walk to McDonalds, KFC and Costa coffee. Staff very friendly, one speaks excellent English. Single room for a dormitory price, I'd definitely stay there again.

Best budget stay in cairo imaginable.

This was my first trip to cairo, and I decided on budget accommodations for my stay. I can't tell you how impressed I was with not just this hotel itself, but with the hospitality of the hotelstaff. They arranged a pick up from cairo international airport free of charge straight to the hotel. The facilities were very clean and had all the essential amenities including wifi. Free breakfast was included. The staff were extremely helpful in getting you oriented, telling you how to get around, and showing you how to interact locally. Someone was always availiable 24 hours to provide assistance which as a first time traveller I appreciated. The hotel is in the heart of cairo and it is located 2 steps away from everything! It was an easy walk to the major attractions in cairo which was really cool. If I ever come to egypt again, I would definitely stay here again.

Good choice near Tahrir Square and Egyptian Museum

This is a good hostel type option. Staff are very friendly and helpful. About a 10 minute walk to Tahrir Square and the Egyptian Museum. Breakfast is basic but delicious - a falafel sandwich and a fuul sandwich, coffee/tea. Shower had only cold water the night I was there. Rooms have A/C. It is on the 4th floor of a building - there is access to an elevator, sometimes it worked other times it didn't. Hotel is open 24 hours, no lockout/curfew.

Best Hospitality

This was the best hotel i have ever been to. The saff there treat you not like a client but like a friend. I actually hung out and had real conversations with the receptionist. They look out for you and make sure you have good time.. not just at the hotel but in Cairo as a whole.

Lovely staff, wonderful stay

The staff at the hotel are kind, helpful and trustworthy. They speak wonderful English and will not try to take advantage of you or point you in the direction of anyone who plans on ripping off tourists. They constantly work to make you comfortable and I can not say any nicer words about these lovely people. This is a great place to be based to work from and see the city and you can fully trust those who run it.

Very Friendly Hotel in Downtown

The staff here were absolutely fantastic. From the moment I arrived to the moment I left they helped me with everything. The hotel is located in downtown next to many restaurants and shisha places. The room was very large with a high ceiling and it was kept spotlessly clean throughout the stay. There is a great common area to relax in. The staff were very helpful in organizing interesting and inexpensive trips around Egypt. It was delightful to be able to see everything I wanted to without any hassle at all. I would highly recommend this hotel to everybody.
