  • about staff: one of them was very good, organised our trip to te desert, speaks good english and was very helpfull, the other wasnt good. the hostel was clean and in a very good location, very good cost for money. has nice balconis where you can see the crazy streets of cairo. The kitchen is very small and not that clean, but it was ok for us. I would recomend the hostel.

  • Definitely one of the nicest places I've stayed in a long time. Everything is well taken care of and clean. The large bathroom is pretty lush, though I didn't get a chance to use the gigantic tub. Also the nicest beds and bedding so far. Everyone is super friendly, helpful and chill. Right next door to a great modern Egyptian takeaway - deliciously convenient way to experience the food.
