5/5 Jason A. 11 years ago on Google
I
really
feel
truly
blessed
for
finding
this
hotel,
I
was
backpacking
the
middle
east
solo
but
felt
at
home
among
friends
the
very
first
night
I
checked
in.
Mohamed
is
a
very
involved
owner
and
will
make
sure
your
experience
is
as
perfect
as
he
can
make
it,
always
helpful,
always
friendly.
ASK
FOR
"RAAOF"
AS
A
DRIVER!
I
went
all
over
the
middle
east
and
out
of
the
dozen
or
so
drivers
I
had,
Raaof
in
Cairo
was
definitely
the
best!
Bright
young
man,
very
good
english,
studied
tourism
and
history
in
college
so
he
can
give
you
a
lot
of
insight
both
past
and
present
into
Egypt.
In
addition
to
showing
me
all
over
Cairo,
making
sure
my
experience
at
the
pyramids
was
amazing,
and
spending
entire
days
with
me,
he
also
went
above
and
beyond
by
picking
me
up
at
the
airport
even
though
I
arrived
at
midnight,
and
dropping
me
off
when
I
left
at
4AM.
Very
trustworthy.
He
truly
made
my
experience
in
Cairo
epic
but
most
importantly
SAFE.
He's
much
more
then
a
driver,
he's
a
guide
(a
very
good
one)
and
now
a
friend.
There
are
nicer
more
expensive
places
to
stay
but
given
the
overall
experience
if
you
consider
yourself
a
"traveler"
more
then
a
"tourist"
you
really
need
to
stay
here
and
spend
a
couple
days
with
Mohamed
and
Raaof,
let
them
show
you
Cairo
with
a
locals
perspective.
They
are
both
very
professional
and
likeable
guys.
Before
coming
I
read
comments
about
the
building
being
old
and
breakfast
being
bland,
which
I
guess
I
can
understand,
but
for
the
$
I
was
actually
very
surprised
by
how
nice
and
comfortable
this
place
was,
yeah
its
old,
but
very
clean
and
everything
worked.
Remember
this
is
in
downtown
Cairo!
Thats
the
best
part,
and
you
can't
beat
the
price.
If
you're
used
to
staying
in
most
hostels
like
me
this
place
will
feel
like
a
luxury
hotel
:)
I
obviously
had
a
great
time
in
Egypt,
and
a
lot
of
that
had
to
do
with
staying
here.
