In downtown Cairo, clean and friendly staff.

I really loved the place, particularly the location because it's exactly located in downtown Cairo. The staff was so friendly and classy and the room was very comfortable and clean, they make sure that the room should be housekeeped every two days and that was nice 🙂. However, I would like to mention two drawbacks, the noice cancelation wasn't that good so you will hear each single car passing through Ramses road, the second drawback is the WiFi internet speed, it was really slow. My overall review is 8 out of 10.

A bed for a few hours

Does its job. The breakfast is just the lady boiling an egg and a few slices of bread, even then taking over 30 mins. Location is fine, for us it was the place to rest for a few hours after a flight and before getting to a nicer accommodation. Room was clean with basic necessities, the traffic noise was so loud it was hard to get sleep in the morning.

Hotel maravilhoso

A primeira impressão é ruim pois o prédio é velho. Mas ao chegar no sexto andar onde fica a recepção é uma graça. Atendentes maravilhosos e solícitos. Amei ficar aqui.
