I was excited to visit Alexandria, and I believe I made a great choice; the place is comfortable and clean, and the staff are cooperative and always available to help and answer any questions. I will certainly return—it has become my favorite spot—and I would like to thank the reception team and everyone working at the hotel.

We had to wait quite long before the check in tjme at 2:00 PM because the room wasn’t ready and when we entered the room the floor was still wet from after cleaning, also they couldn’t find the balcony key took for us to lock it and they kept telling us no need it’s already safe but the balconies are so close to the others right next to us so anyone can access.

A wonderful and affordable hotel for being so centrally located in Alexandria and you don't notice much of the main road that runs behind the hotel. Unfortunately I got there the night before and was away on a tour in Alexandria the whole day after before I went on to Cairo. Therefore I didn't have time to use the pool or beach but both looked tempting. The breakfast was wonderful but not the dinner, ordered grilled seafood the first night but got (and paid for) a very simple seafood soup. Ordered grilled seafood the second night as well and then I got it, but... The food must have been waiting for a long time because everything on the plate was cold and the shells were stuck together to the shrimps. Didn't have time to complain because I was going on to Cairo, but it was the worst grilled seafood I've ever eaten.

There is sewerage odor , although they are cleaner coming every day but looks a problem construction. The cleaning or room is superficial because if you move the sofa , you will find surprises. Otherwise the staffs are very kind.
