Unbeatable
location,
spotless
clean
room
and
bath,
extremely
hospitable
hosts
-
I
couldn't
ask
for
more!
I
checked
in
late
(around
11pm)
and
it
was
a
smooth
process
-
thanks
to
Mr.
Umar
-
one
of
the
hosts.
Mr.
Umar
is
always
happy
to
share
words
of
wisdom
from
his
decades
of
experience
and
I
really
appreciate
all
the
food
and
travel
tips
I
got
from
him!
Mr.
Ibrahim,
the
other
host
is
a
resourceful
and
energetic
young
man.
This
cool
dude
gave
me
loads
of
tour
options
(even
for
other
cities
like
Aswan
and
Luxor),
helped
me
exchange
currency,
arranged
transportation.
Between
them
and
the
very
helpful
Moustafa
and
Mary
there's
always
someone
at
front
desk,
eager
to
assist.
There's
a
ton
to
do
around
this
area.
One
can
walk
over
to
the
the
Museum,
Tahrir
Square,
Nasr
Metro
Station,
Bo
Bus
station
or
the
Nile
in
about
10
minutes.
My
room
was
surprisingly
quiet
considering
the
busy
location!
The
railway
station
is
about
1km
away.
Countless
shopping
and
food
options
in
the
neighborhood
-
from
touristy
to
very
local
stuff!
The
general
vibe
at
the
hotel
is
very
welcoming,
laid
back
and
casual.
They
serve
breakfast
and
even
offered
to
customize
it
for
me.
There's
a
shared
kitchen
and
plenty
of
seating
in
the
lobby.
The
wifi
is
not
the
best,
though
it
was
being
hogged
by
a
few
guests
streaming
videos
all
day.
I
found
an
unused
wifi
router
in
the
hallway
and
set
it
up
as
a
range
extender.
The
hosts
were
immensely
grateful!
Made
some
great
connections
with
the
hosts
and
fellow
travelers
as
I
lounged
about
the
lobby,
sipping
some
of
their
amazing
shaay
:)
Special
mention
for
Ahmed
-
the
dashing
young
man
who
drove
me
all
around
Cairo,
Giza,
dropped
me
to
the
train
station
and
even
invited
me
for
a
home-cooked
meal!
Mr.
Omar
and
Ibrahim
are
ambassadors
of
Egyptian
hospitality.
They
made
me
feel
like
a
guest
and
not
a
customer.
It
was
almost
too
good
to
be
true!
They
actually
convinced
me
to
return
to
Egypt!
I'll
certainly
stay
again
at
Mr.
Umar
and
Mr.
Ibrahim's
place!
