This place is amazing! It’s located in a quiet area, but very easy to reach, just few minutes to the public boat station and you are in the city center. The room is very clean and nicely decorated in an east style. Hot water, super good WiFi which is rare in Egypt, green area around. I had a very good sleep there after noisy Giza and Cairo. I liked it all, but the best is the owner, he is extremely nice, helpful and takes care of guests, I felt like home there, he was always there for me, though I needed a boat at 3 am, he organized it for me and want with me. I’m very grateful for that. Also I had a birthday and I was given a big beautiful cake from the hotel, such a warm atmosphere I’ve never met before. To tears. Thanks a lot and I highly recommend this hotel, the best!

The place is in a calm area of Aswan, you can swim in the Nile, watch the felouks go by and have a view of Elephantine Island. it's great. Breakfast is typical Egyptian and really keeps you from getting hungry for the rest of the day. The place was clean, and we had Aircon. What makes this place exceptional is the owner. He gave us many tips for our further travels backpacking around Egypt. Also, they don't rip you off on water here! Buy your water there, everywhere else they see you are a tourist and you will pay 5 times the price.

Im shoked that this place gets any review less than 10/10. Ok the rooms are nothing fancy but for the price you will recieve way more than anywhere else in Aswan. David is probably the friendliest and most helpful host we have ever had on our travels. Every question we had was patiently explained. The place is a bit on the outskirts of town but David will help ypu take a mini bus for 2 pounds! He will even write you a small statement in Arabic to show the driver. Also it was nice to stay in the local neighborhood, you get a sense of daily life in Aswan The wifi was good and shower was warm. Bed was firm, but the rooms are clean. The free laundry was a huge plus. If we come back, tbis is where we will stay.

We had the most wonderful stay at this beautiful nubian house ,From the moment we arrived Mrs aAsmaa made us feel right at home with her warmth, kindness and genuine hospitality. The nile view is breathtaking and you can spend the whole visit in the terrace enjoying the scene. I highly recommend this house for anyone looking for a cozy, clean and welcoming place.

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. They gave me plenty of recommendations and did not overcharge for water (like many hostels and hotels do). The area felt safe as staff as well as locals from the village would assist if need be.

    Property is in a quiet area of Aswan, away from the noisy city. Crossing the street it has an exclusive area to swim into the Nile river or do some kayaking, which are rented for a cheap price. They also offer water and soft drinks and a small breakfast included. You can easily spend many days relaxing in the hostel, without even leaving to do attractions.

    Great owner who was very helpful, the room was nice, and I loved the view from the rooftop! The hostel is on the island and is very easy and cheap to reach by public ferry (takes 5mins). Walking around the island is also fun. Check out King Jamaica for some good food. :)

    This village is great if you want to experience local life. The staff here are really nice and always ready to help with a smile. It's very safe to walk around this island even at night. I felt comfortable with the Nubian people and trusted them completely. For those seeking conformity, this hostel may not align. But if you want to relax and enjoy the peacefulness while looking at the stars, this is the place to be
