FRAUD!PICTURES ARE FRAUDULENT!
The pics shown on the site look nothing like the actual room.I had to wait 2 hrs to check in as there was no electricity.When I finally did check in there were electrical wires running to my room.The room which was supposed to be a king size room and bed was a double bed in a room 6'x8'.There were ants crawling on the bed and the sheets were stained.I went to the front desk to complain and they sent up a 12 year old underage worker to change the linen.The elevator walls were open to the outside walls and you could touch the concrete as you went by.I cancelled the reservation with the front desk immediately and contacted vrbo immediately.I booked a great hotel across the street fortunately.I have requested a full refund but the hotel is refusing.Do not book here!you have been warned!

Perfect mid price downtown Cairo hotel
Nice hotel right across street from Egyptian Museum. Sign by road, walk down alley, go up elevator to 7th floor. Very nice staff, wonderful rooftop area to have a drink and free breakfast ( left too early to partake). Wifi good in room. Very small bathroom but good size room and clean.

The minute I walked in the Lobby downstairs you need to go upto level 8 but once arrived i was greated and welcomed. I have stayed at many 3 star hotels but this does not compare to any I've stayed in the past. The staff and the condition of the hotel was absolutely amazing. I extended my stay here due to the fact i feel safe comfortable for a great price. I cannot express enough how amazing all my interactions have been with everyone that works here and mangers the property. I will definitely come back here in my furure visit. The location is perfect and for a great price you experience such amazing service and hospitality. Thank you so much and cannot wait to come back again.

Its more of a hostel than a hotel. From outside the property its abandoned. Literally. Several floors are completely abandoned. The hotel its located on the 8th floor. Inside the hotel the property its in good condition. Beds are not very comfortable. We could feel some of the springs when laying back. Location is good.

I was hesitant on booking this property because of the reviews. With that said, I was beyond impressed! I really can’t understand why some of the reviews were so bad. I stayed in 2 different rooms and both were clean, comfortable, spacious, with air conditioning and windows. The roof was beautiful with a lovely view and staff that catered to your needs. The breakfast was delicious, I ate there every morning for 5 days. Every day there was something different, along with juice, tea, coffee, cappuccino, etc. Additionally, the elevator is smaller, and yes, it is slow, but it is no different than elevators your will find in Paris, downtown LA or NYC. The hotel is centrally located in Tahir Squar next to the Museum and the Nile/Corniche and you can’t beat the price. If you are looking for a 5 star hotel, the Ritz Carlton is across the street, but if you’re looking for a lovely place that allows you to have extra spending money, this is your place! Enjoy!

It’s the worst, the building entrance is terrible and the elevator is scary it’s old and barely working. And when i finally i arrived they didn’t give me the room I booked instead they gave me a standard food room and their response were okay if you didn’t like it you can simply cancel as the money isn’t refundable and they know it. It’s just the worst place i have ever been too.

Very, very, very, very, very, very dirty hotel
Both room and bathroom were exceedingly dirty. Disgusting, in fact. Sheets were dirty. Shower drainage very poor, overflows into room, water everywhere. We had to raid the housekeeping area to change our own sheets, find new towels. Even for the price and my low standards it was just... wrong. Mattress was newer and relatively comfortable despite the dirty sheets. Front desk guys were nice, however, and we loved the Islamic prayer that played every time you operated the elevator.

Very disappointed. Asked the manager for immediate cancellation. His best offer was to refund for 5 nights instead of 9. He then offered another slightly better room. Stayed all the 9 nights as we had no choice.

Hostel on top of a derilict building
Located on the top floor of what appears to be a derelict building. It is a hostel but seem to present itself as a hotel with misleading pictures. The lift to reach the top floor (only access to hostel) is built on the outside of the building which made us nervous at best but afraid for our lives. Good WiFi signal in the lobby.

Cairo Trip
Hotel Location is fabulous and very strategic location, walkable to Tharir square, Museum and Nile Cornish. We stayed between 2nd and 4 March-2018. Hotel located on the 8th Floor of a building. We reached the hotel, the entrance is not as we expected and the lift was small to accommodate more than 2 people comfortably. Rooms were cleaned with OK status. The bathroom was small and OK with cleanliness. Duvet does not have a cover (strange) but we managed. Overall OK type of room. The photos of the rooms on the website are not true to picture of the actual rooms, it's misleading. Staff is great and very helpful,, they will try to do best of their capacity. Aladin the owner is a nice person, he has arranged Free Airport Pick up from us to the hotel. Also arranged Taxi for Giza,and Cairo City along with Nile Cruise with dinner at the competitive price.

Roaches, rain, and really?
First, the room I booked did not exist (there isn’t a queen room with bathtub) even though promised. Second, breakfast is a joke. No coffee, no tea, but you can pay and get a bottle of water to go with your hotdog bun and jelly. Our room had roaches on the ceiling, and the room next door leaked when it rained. After multiple calls to customer service trying to get resolution, we checked out and went somewhere else. Horrible experience. And I doubt the review will be published. There is no way this hotel ranks 4.2 on anybody’s scale. Please read reviews on other sites to get verification.

Nice Budget Hotel
This was a business trip and comparatively , it was a good Hotel on a location , right next to a metro station from where I went to the locations I wanted to visit for my business trip , though the entry of the Hotel was not very inviting, but once inside the Hotel , it was comfortable, warm & with the amenities one can expect from a budget Hotel, even the WiFi was quite good, the staff was very supportive and helped to guide to any location I wanted to go to like a tourist guide, I would definitely stay in this Hotel again on my next trip.
