Staying in the single room at the hotel was a pleasant experience overall. The room was clean and well isolated from the street noise, providing a comfortable stay in Cairo. The staff were friendly and helpful, adding to the positive experience. However, the location seemed not very clean despite the hotel itself being tidy, and some aspects could be improved for an even better stay.

My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant, with exceptional cooks who went beyond the menu to prepare custom food for me. However, the room was a bit small, cramped with furniture, and not as clean as I would have liked. The location around the hall was convenient, albeit a bit dirty at times.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable with a mini-fridge and a balcony which was a nice touch. However, the proximity to the lobby, often filled with cigarette smoke, was a downside. The total cost for two nights including tax and breakfast was reasonable.

Wow! This hotel offers breathtaking balcony views that will steal your heart, but it might not look as glamorous as in the photos. The rooms are a bit tired, and there might be some strange smells lingering around. On the bright side, the location is superb, central to all must-visit spots in Cairo. however, others feel it's good enough for a 3-star hotel.

My stay at the hotel was really amazing! The rooms were super clean and had a balcony with a view to Tahrir Square, which was just fantastic. The room amenities could be improved by providing complimentary water, tea, or coffee. The service was excellent, especially the cooperation in organizing trips to Saqqara, Dahshur, and Giza pyramids. The location couldn't be better as it's central, near the Egyptian Museum, and facing El Tahrir Square. The dining experience was good for the price paid, but there were some areas that could be enhanced. Overall, a great stay with a few minor things to consider.
