On my last day in Cairo, I used it as a day use as I was leaving late at night. It was a hostel but I booked it because it had a private bathroom. The towels were not as good as those in a hotel, but they were fine to use. You can borrow a hairdryer at the front desk. Soap, body wash, and shampoo are provided. The location is very convenient as there are many restaurants and souvenir shopping (including alcohol) in the area. The staff were very kind. You can walk to the Archaeological Museum, of course, and you can also walk to Khan Khalili, although it takes about 30 minutes.

Don't know how this hotel got a high score of 4.6? I won't choose it again anyway. The facilities are extremely rudimentary. There is not even a stool in the room. There is nothing you need. The pillow is so hard that it feels like sleeping on wood. The bed is also hard. I felt sore all over after sleeping.

The location is good. There are many shops and restaurants nearby, including KFC and McDonald's. The whole Cairo is noisy but there is nothing I can do about it. There is a hair dryer you can borrow at the counter. The water pressure is a bit low and the CP value is very high.

This budget hostel located in the heart of Cairo city is our last minutes resort. The front desk staff are very helpful and try their best to meet what you need. Free Wi-Fi and continental breakfast. Enjoying viewing Nile Sunset at river bank is a 20-minute walk.
