  • Very good experience here. They had extra room and they let me stay in a double bed even though I was only paying for a single. Location is right in down town and the staff is helpful for getting around.

  • The Canadian Hostel was the perfect choice. The location is ideal for exploring the city and the price is very budget-friendly - you defintely get more than you pay for. It is clean, secure and best of all, the staff are incredible. During my stay, the young boys in charge were funny, honest and always eager to improve my time, not only at the hostel but in Cairo in general. I never felt pressured to pay baksheesh for their assistance - they genuinely wanted to help. I recommend it to everyone!
