This is one of the main hotels which is used for Gecko's tours and a few others so there's a lot of coming and going. But in spite of that, the hotel is clean and well located especially for the price. We stayed here on a off for a week (before and after the tour). My first day in Egypt... more

I guess you pay for what you get. The rooms are fine though outdated. The bathrooms are clean I suspect but they are very old with built up grime in all of the corners. Breakfast was pretty average. Its not a great location. You have to travel to get to any of the sites. But there are restaurants, fast food... more

We had a triple room which was large with large ensuite. I found the staff friendly and helpfull, its a short walk to a large grocery shop ( a rare find in Egypt) and the Nile, and their are numerous fast food outlets within three blocks. It was comfortable, clean and cheap. more

The pillows were pretty tough and hard is what I vividly remember. The elevators didn't always work. Our washroom was actually detached from our room meaning we had to leave our room and cross over to the washroom! We couldn't leave our stuff inside there as a result.

The airconditioning needed some extensive cleaning and all objects with a plug seemed quite old and not very safe to me (buzzing fridge, didn't... more

It not huge like Sheraton of neighborhood. However, It was able to spend time with staff and other guest calmly and familiarly. House keeper and concierge, several staff of the front learned my face, they gave smile everyday and helped me. There are a few stand near and KFC and supermarket chain ALFA at next block. It can walk to... more

for a woman travelling alone in cairo, this hotel was pretty private and comfortable. I stayed in a room overlooking the Nile, which is really nice for $25/night! It didn't have a breakfast, but you could walk down the street to a great sandwich shop, and there was a pharmacy/convenience store on the corner. the AC worked well, and the... more
