The bathroom shared the space for both shower and WC, which is not very comfortable.

It is a cute house in front of the Nile with a private balcony with beautiful views in the quiet Elephantine Island. The room and living room/kitchen has a good size and it was super clean. The host Raghda was very nice and helped us to arrange the pick up service from Aswan to the island, kindly prepared us breakfast to take away the days we woke up early to visit Abu Simbel and other sites and was always available on WhatsApp for anything we needed. The breakfast served at the terrace was very delicious too 😊

There isn't a stove or facilities to prepare your own food, which would be a positive plus.

The place had an amazing view, on the calm and beautiful side of the Nile. Definitely a gem for those who prefer serene spots, and a sure recommendation for a place on elephantine island. The hostess was amazing, kind, fun, and generous. She made sure we're comfortable and she helped a lot with guiding us to plan our trips. The place is much quieter than most spots in Aswan and it's super safe, cozy, and clean. I felt home! Would book it again and again.

Location is top! Is the best area in Aswan overlooking the botanical garden, the hotel is basic but basic. Owners super friendly and helpful. Walking distance good restaurants (bob marley my favourite). I recommend!!

Beautiful setting on the Nile at Elephantine, simple clean room and facilities including sofa, kettle and gas stove. Some cutlery and a few pots and plates would be useful. Kind, very helpful hosts.

Location is an absolute dream. The correct side of the island to enjoy a peaceful and idyllic stay. Framed by the Aga Khan mausoleum and the Tombs of the Nobles with Kitcheners botanical garden island providing your main view. The host is exceptional in both hospitality and in cooking a satisfying homemade dinner if requested. So glad I happened upon this gem of a spot. Will definitely return on my next trip to Aswan..

Construction noises all day. Pictures in the booking are misleading, there is no little beach and sand area with table and chairs. There is only a cemented rooftop in front of the balcony. We complained about construction noises happening all day and the host was not accommodating- she just replied with the fact that the accommodation is cheap. Fridge door is broken, lacking kitchen utensils, and shower head is broken.

Host met us at arrival

The fact that some of the photos posted on their page do not correspond with the actual place.

Pleasant and helpful host. Nice location on the west side of the Nubian island.

I love this little house, right on the riverbank, with its balcony where you can spy pied kingfishers squabbling at sunset. It's super tranquil and perfect if you want to experience Elephantine. For practical matters: the Wifi is fast (very useful if you have to do some work during your stay) & the hot water is piping hot.

Cleanliness of the room, the wonderful breakfast in the balcony overlooking the river next day, the effort to make sure I had a great overall experience.
