There was nothing to like as it was hurtful to have our trust broken by the hotel manager Mohammad Said and to have him not fulfill his promises on the excusions that we paid him in cash for. We completely overpaid and he took advantage of us as two young female travelers. He kept telling us we were safe with him but it was the opposite.

Mohamed (the host) is very friendly, honest and do his best to meet his guests' wishes. He takes care of all the organization (water, food, transportation, airport transfer), so we can really enjoy our stay. Thanks to him, I discovered great places and saw a lot more than expected. The area of Abu Sir is very nice and quiet with a view on the desert and many archeological sites: Guizah, Abu Sir and Saqqara. The hotel is not at the european standard, but it is clean and very confortable. I felt like home and enjoyed a great stay.

The breakfast really was very nice and it’s enough to start your day

Eid, Egypt

The site is really quaint. The garden is green and quiet. The view from the balcony lovely as well. We enjoyed our stay. The owner took us to the market so we could buy dinner. He also arranged a tour for us the following day to Saqqar. Ask for Sherif as a driver he was amazing! It's a nice quiet place to hang out after the busy bustle in Cairo and Giza. The owner is super helpful and great company.

At first I though this is a nice hotel.The view of room is very nice. They picked me up at airport for free. I robbed by a taxi driver at the second day after I arrived in Egypt. I spent a whole night at police station to help polices find the taxi driver. The captain asked the owner to send me my luggage. I didn't check my money carefully. 1day later,.I found that they wore my shoes.They put shoe-pads in my shoes.And made my shoes dirty, a lot of sand and small stones in my shoes. Then I found I lost 400USD and 200RMB. But I didn't check carefully when they sent my luggage to me. It is my fault. But it is so special experience. So that I advice never to live in here.

The location was amazing. Pyramids seen from the roof of the hotel and our room overlooked a horse stud farm.

“This is not a legit hotel. The owner will screw you over financially and safety wise.”

눉***DO NOT STAY HERE. It is DISGUSTING, NO WORKING SHOWERS, COCKROACHES EVERYWHERE. HOST INTIMIDATES CLIENTS INTO WRITING GOOD REVIEWS. UNSAFE FOR WOMEN*** There are two huge issues. The rooms: we were not able to shower for THREE DAYS because the water was out. Our room was filled with cockroaches (we counted 10), the AC unit does not work, there is no WiFi in the entire hotel, and amenities are not provided in the bathroom. It was completely unlivable and disappointing. The host, Mohammed. My friend and I, both came to Egypt, to experience the culture and look at the beautiful sites. Mohammed at first greeted us kindly, gave us tea, and made us trust him. He then demanded an exorbitant amount of money to get a driver and tour guide, assuring us it was a fair price. He promised we would get to horse back ride through the desert, go on a morning hike, and that we would be very safe as we are two women. The driver was TERRIBLE. He left us in the middle of Cairo and forgot to pick us up. We had to walk through Cairo alone, getting screamed at by men all along the way. After calling 12 times, the driver finally picked us up and demanded we come to his home to meet his sons. His sons all grabbed at us and asked us to marry them. We left eventually, feeling very uncomfortable and violated, and went back to Sakarra Inn, where we were told we would not be able to do any activities that we had paid for because of how late we were (again, this was because the driver essentially kidnapped us), and we were not apologized to or refunded. Again, we paid for 5 activities and only one was fully done- a visit to Giza. Mohammed then tried to intimidate us into writing positive reviews, saying that he would not drive us to the airport if we didn’t write a positive review in front of him. We were very scared, and believe this is how he gets all of his reviews.

“unpleasant !”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
눉Bath room shower was not working properly and had no way to get shower. I was the only guest. And no other staff was working there but only the owner. He was pushy to organise tours soon after came to hotel event didn't gave a space to relax after a long flight. Beds were not clean enough. Since I didn't like the hotel, I decided to leave the hotel at the very moment with out spending night. But paid for room and transport( to next hotel and considering cost of free airport pick up) which is big amount ( I offed the amount), when consider the normal charges. Still owner wanted to mention my stay as no show and charge twice !
