The Hotel location is close and walking distance to the Egyptian Museum and Tahrir square. All the staff at the reception were extremely nice and helpful. They helped me and booked private tours at affordable prices. They even gave me a free pick up from the airport . For the hotel price, you can't go wrong.

料金の安さを遥かに上回るサービスの質で文句無しに星が付きます。いずれにせよ、カイロ中心部ですしアクセスの良さが売りなんでしょうね。旅行者も多く必要な情報は全て取得可能で空港送迎に関してもフリーでタクシーに乗る事を考えると(実際やってみればわかりますが)安心して任せて大丈夫です。 エジプト入りと出国時にこの宿泊施設は非常に重宝します。 お世話になりました。ありがとうございます。またよろしくお願いします。
