HungaryThe staff were incredibly kind and helpful, it made a huge difference that they let us rest in the lobby both before check-in and after check-out, since we arrived early in the morning and left late at night. The breakfast was honestly the best we had in all of Cairo. The room was clean, comfortable, and had a beautiful view. The location is perfect, everything is close by and easy to reach. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and everyone we met was genuinely helpful and good-hearted. We honestly couldn’t imagine a better stay.

Very good location and safe lifts. The entrance to the hotel is clean and welcoming. I came early and they gave us an early checking-in because of it. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were very clean and the beds were comfortable and big. The area was good and the rooms were sound-proof. Ac units worked well and wifi was also stable. The breakfast was very nice, and when we requested an omelette, extra bread and tea they provided us with them. Very safe location with lots of cheap food stores, coffee shops and restaurants.

The dormitory was very comfortable and clean, and the bathroom included. Breakfast was delicious. The staff were amazing, extremely helpful with tips about the local area (where to eat, and pit fall to look out for, ect.). The hostel also organised tours that were really good, and at a good price.

Very good location in the center of Cairo. 10 minutes walking to the Egyptian Museum and surrounded by restaurants and shopping. Safe neighborhood. The service was excellent, very kind people!! Nice breakfast. The building is a little bit old in the outside, but the hostel rooms are very nice and comfortable.

The hostel is conveniently located in the city center of Cairo. There are restaurants and hidden cafes nearby which made it appealing for me.
My small private room was cute with a comfortable bed, AC, bathroom and perfect for a night stay. In addition, the hostel offers dormitory rooms for solo travelers. I felt very safe when walking in the area alone.
The staff was friendly, kind, and helpful. Thank you for letting me use the washer.
