Disliked: Amenities
Lack of ability to order a taxi to the airport was shocking. However, an Uber was allowed on site. Crazy. Anyway………I was a little ticked as I had to get to the airport. The place smells like smoke, but so do most places in the Middle East. No alcohol, but puff your brains out I guess.

Stay in the guard hotel

Very good space and pool. Some construction work may be needed. Yes there was a wedding on a couple of nights, so it’s not completely quiet in the rooms at that time, but tolerable. Overall good stay for the value One thing that is bothersome; the need for the key card to keep electricity and AC on, so if one person needs to go down or out for something, they cannot come back up in the elevator because of the one card per room rule. Also, makes the room aeration during the day non-existent while the card isn’t in the room.

We booked this hotel over the Concorde because it had a bar and pickle ball courts. I asked for a late checkout, she said $15usd, She charged me $50usd. Maybe i misheard her? The property looks nice but its a lot like North Korea. Looks cool, but try to do something there and it wont work. We booked the hotel wanting to play pickle ball. The gym could not find the rental equipment, they sent us to the trainer who could not locate the guy who knew where it was. What a waste of some decent pickle ball courts. The bar which shows up on every website as the little martini glass is NOT a bar, they serve coffee. They take forEVer to serve coffee. Fine i will taxi to buy beer, NOPE not allowed on the property. Also you cant stay there if unmarried fyi. We considered swimming but some review said girls have to wear a swim cap which seems pretty archaic. We went walking around the area, definitely ultra conservative muslim district. At the night market my daugher was kicked in the leg and then the kid ran off before I could grab him. To top the stay off there was a giant roach alive in the tub. The wifi was in and out but then went completely out after a fire in cairo knocked internet out for the whole city. The Venus restaurant burger was dry but the schwarma was awesome. I tried to order room service but it doesnt work out in English. Im not faulting the hotel for not speaking much English, or for the internet outtage. I wanted pickle ball and a bar!
