"This hotel is a bit difficult to find. Following the navigation, you'll find the hotel sign after entering the alley. Turn right inside the building and you'll find the elevator. Take the elevator on the far right to the 5th floor, then climb one more flight of stairs.
The staff were very nice and polite, offering to help with luggage up the stairs.
You can order food at the hotel, but it's not very good and quite expensive. And before eating or drinking, it's best to ask if it's free. Sometimes, we're used to free things in China, but they charge for them. For example, the hotel won't refill our bottles of mineral water, so subsequent bottles are charged, and they're quite expensive.
We arrived early on check-in day, and the staff were very nice. They let us wait outside. After the previous guest left, they immediately cleaned and let us check in.
However, the water heater in our room didn't work. After we reported it, they gave us another room and let us shower. The response was very prompt and friendly. The water heater was fixed on our second night. I also looked at other room types, and they all seemed quite small, especially the twin rooms, which felt a bit cramped. They were quite clean, though.
There were no toilet paper dispensers in the room, only rolls in the bathroom, so remember to bring some! The bathroom had separate wet and dry areas, which was a nice touch.
The bedding seemed clean, though I did notice a few stains, which was acceptable.
The room also had a refrigerator, which cooled well. The air conditioning also cooled well. The street outside was a bit noisy during the day, but it was manageable. Our room also had a view of the pyramids, which was quite nice. The hotel also has a large terrace with views of the pyramids, though there was construction work going on out front, and the crane obstructed the view a bit.
All in all, the hotel was quite good and offered excellent value. I highly recommend it if you're staying near the pyramids on a budget."
