My family and I had a wonderful time! The staff were amazing, the location was perfect, and the breakfast was huge!
Rooms were fine, clean, with good AC and WiFi - essential in Cairo's July heat!
The staff helped with info, airport transport, and trips; a 10/10 for their care!
The location is great; 10 mins walk to the Egyptian Museum and Tahrir Square.
Breakfast was really good and plentiful!
The building is older, but that's typical for downtown; always felt safe.

This place is a hidden gem! The service was really good, the breakfast was delicious, and the location was unbeatable!
My room was comfortable and clean, with a great shower!
Manga was especially kind, bringing me coffee every morning!
Easy walking distance to Tahrir Square and the Sadat Metro stop!
The breakfast was the best hostel breakfast I've ever had - huge portions!
Good wifi, comfortable beds, and a nice ensuite bathroom with hot water.

Great experience! The staff went above and beyond when my phone died and I arrived late. They upgraded my room for free! I'd definitely stay again.
My single room with a shared bathroom was upgraded to one with a private bathroom, which was a very pleasant surprise!
The staff were incredibly helpful and generous, offering a free room upgrade when I had a travel mishap.
I don't have much to say about the location, as my focus was on the excellent service.
I didn't have a chance to try the breakfast.
The upgrade to a private bathroom was fantastic.
