Great gem in a kind neighborhood.
Amazing location right next to everything. Wonderful neighborhood with the kindest people you could ever possibly meet. The area can look a little rough on the outside but the inside of the building was nice enough. Everything was clean and comfortable and the views from the 15th floor at sunset were Amazing. Check in was super easy. The hotel staff were very nice checking us in, showing us to our room and chatting with us when we were in the lobby.

Cheap, Clean and Friendly
We arrived, went to the 15th floor and found the reception. Parking was a circus, was fun to watch. We got pleasantly upgraded to the family room, with 90degrees view of the city centre.. Ali and his team were nice. you have to give the keys to reception when you leave on your tour. Water is not complimentary. 5LE each bottle. Breakfast is very basic. Bread cheese and coffee/tea. We extended and stayed two nights instead of one. When we were leaving. The parking team did not ask for a tip (like everyone in Egypt), but wanted to charge us for the parking even though the booking was with FREE parking. That was one of the things I look for in finding a room, as we have a car. Ali from reception came down and sorted it out and we were able to move our car. Ali and the team,Thank you for your hospitality, it was great to stay with you.

This hotel was excellent for our needs. No extra charge for early check in, near museum, not far from airport. Ali was a wonderful host. Rooms were clean. Breakfast was simple, fresh and delicious (hard boiled egg, bread, cheese, jam and tea).
