    I had a great value for my money at this hostel in Cairo. The room was spacious and comfortable, and the location near the train station made it convenient for travel. The staff, including the manager, were nice and helpful. They even helped me navigate my way to the Black/White Desert the next day. I would definitely choose to stay here again in the future.

    The morning meal could have been improved with a greater variety of options.

    For the price we paid, the value was exceptional and the room exceeded our expectations. The location was convenient, within walking distance of Ramses Station, and the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and taken care of.

    Breakfast offerings could be improved with more variety and options.

    Mind-blowing value for money! Super spacious rooms, jaw-dropping hot shower with great water pressure, and excellent location close to downtown and the Bazar. Friendly and welcoming staff made me feel at home. Basic but okay breakfast available. Free Wi-Fi, AC, laundry, flat-screen TV, in-room breakfast, 24-hour reception.

    Our romantic escape at this hostel was a memorable experience. the staff were incredibly friendly and made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. Their warm hospitality and helpful nature added an extra touch of comfort to our stay. the location of the hostel was perfect for our explorations. Being close to the metro station and surrounded by numerous stores made it convenient for us to venture out and discover the city. the cleanliness of the room was impressive. The hardworking cleaning ladies ensured that our accommodation was always spotless, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere.

    While our overall experience was delightful, there were a couple of minor drawbacks. the delivery of breakfast to our room in the morning, although well-intentioned, could be a bit intrusive, especially after a long night of romance.

    Clean rooms and friendly staff. The breakfast was basic but hearty. Mr. Robert always checked up on me to see if I needed anything. The location was great for visiting the main attractions in Cairo.

    I recently stayed at a basic and clean hotel in Cairo for a few days. The friendly staff were extremely helpful and always had a smile. The rooms were nicely decorated and the separate rooms provided a reasonable level of comfort. The location was great, with the subway just a few meters away. The manager, Salah, was fantastic and went out of his way to make sure I had a pleasant stay. The price I paid was very reasonable and I would definitely stay here again.

    I do recommend this hotel.
