Super friendly staff, great location walking distance to local shops, food, Nile and Egyption Museum. Also great location for exploring wider Cairo as its in the centre. Hotel staff arranged airport transfers and tours all at good prices withel good service, and felt safer than street vendors.

Female solo traveler here!!!
The hotel is on the 5th floor. It has a great view of the city.
I really liked this hotel, I found everything very clean. Location is great, you have the plaza, the museum and a lot of restaurants around it. Staff was very friendly they were very helpful to me since I was traveling by myself.
I would definitely recommend it!!

The hotel is very well located, close to plenty of dining options, public transportation and shops. The building is run down and the area is very noisy, though. Staff is pleasant and welcoming.

To western eyes, this place initially looks shady, but it's actually quite nice. The staff are great, and the room we had was large and clean. The weekend street noise made it very difficult to sleep, but I guess downtown Cairo is like that.

Nice and convenient place to stay. Close to Museum. All staff was incredible nice and helpful. Staff was accommodating to our needs and requests. Thanks everybody working there
Didn't like the traffic and music noise every night, but was so tired from sightseeing, was able to sleep regardless. Didn't like the daily 2 hour power outs, but that wasn't something the hotel had control over.
Overall a good value for the money.
