I stayed there 2 nights in March 2013.It's a modest place in one of the busiest areas in Cairo center at night. the hotel is in the 2nd floor of an old building. the rooms are good size and clean. I booked 1 night through the internet and paid USD 36 and the next day I paid directly to them... More

We arrived in the early morning and they offered us a room for half of the price. They also offer many tours. The room was a bit cold. There was a leakage in the toilet so the bathroom floor was constantly wet. The glass door of the bath room did not close. Insufficient space on both sides of the bed.... More

I was rather disappointed by this Hotel. The good thing about it is the location, you have cafes and night life all around and Tahrir square is in 10 minutes walking distance. However, the cafes are directly below the Hotel, with lots of chatter and TV, so either you have a very sound sleep, or you'll need earplugs. Also there... More

think as usual in most of the hotels in Egypt they are not as you look on the internet. Their facilities are not well take care by the owner. We paid 50 euros per night for a double room. For the same rate in Europe you will get a 5 time better hotel and service. The life standard in Egypt... More

Terrific central location. 6 blocks or so from Tahrir Square. Good value for the money. A busy nightlife cafe scene goes on until the wee hours every night below the rooms. People who have trouble sleeping with some noise around would probably be frustrated. Staff speaks halting but good-enough English and their attitude is always helpful. Rooms don't have a... More

Previous comments about this hotel are accurate – it’s a very pleasant & friendly place to stay, good value for money and an excellent choice if you don’t mind the noise of the street and the bathroom set up. The streets at the front and the side of the hotel become outdoor restaurants, operating very noisily until late at night.... More

I only paid 30 dollars a night and got my own room, nice breakfast, own bathroom, nothing to complain about for the price. If the sheets covered the entire mattress, and the bathroom was bigger, and there was a desk (no desk in the room) it would be 6 star rating... It's good if you are a solo budget traveler.... More
