Exceptionnel
Pros:

L'ambiance chaleureuse et décontractée , les soirées autour d'une infusion d'hibiscus où Bassam joue de la guitare. Les repas du soir délicieux , les petits déjeuners fabuleux..

Quiet and bohemian place with exceptional staff. Fantastic value.
Pros:

The hotel was located on the West Bank but it was easy and cheap to get a public crossing to the East Bank. The ferry is only a 10 minute walk from the hote. The hotel is extremely quiet. The staff, namely Bassam, was exceptional and his English was perfect. I got everything I needed. The rooftop terrace is covered with sand and bohemian and cool. Bassam was always available with any questions or concerns on WhatsApp. My room was huge and comfortable. There is tremendous competition for rooms in Aswan as it is a tourist city but this hotel recognizes that tourists want exceptional value. I got exceptional value and more at Nubian Kingdom. There was also a coffee ceremony conducted while I was there which was complimentary and interesting.

Cons:

The area is sleepy which might be an issue for some people and is not nearly as developed as the Nile's Eastern city side. Restaurants and shops are not as numerous. There is a ferry that is run regularly and the daily crossings back and forth that actually added excitement and fun to my stay.

Maravillosa
Pros:

La ubicación, las personas, y grato recibimiento

Cons:

La cama. En las fotos se veía un colchón cómodo. Sin embargo cuando llegue, tenia un colchón que lucia como cubre sillones y con rellenos. Lo demás todo me encantó

Outstanding stay
Pros:

I had an excellent experience with Bassam and his wonderful staff. A big shout out for Mohammad and his helper Mustafa who made amazing coffee in the traditional Nubian way, well worth the wait watching the process and and the taste was delicious. Thank you Bassam for organising our tours of Philae island and surrounds and the time on Lake Nasser. I look forward to, God willingly, to the all day trip on Lake Nasser, to see the Sunrise, food, storytelling of Nubian traditions and culture, music, visit to Temple of Kalabsha, (3.59pm purchase ticket0 and then on to see Sunset later in the year

Cons:

Every thing was perfection

Pros:

Es hat uns so gut gefallen, dass wir spontan die letzten Tage unsere Urlaubs -mehr als gerne…- hier verbracht haben! Den bereits erfolgten Rezessionen bzgl. Ausstattung, Sauberkeit, Gemütlichkeit & Frühstück/ (Familien-) Essen ist wenig hinzuzufügen. Es ist alles TOP, die Preise transparent & absolut fair, individuelle Bedürfnisse werden wahrgenommen und -wenn möglich- erfüllt. Insbesondere das abendliche (Familien-) Essen war ein kulinarischer Traum und man möchte am Liebsten sofort einen Kochkurs bei Bassams Tante belegen… :)
Hervorheben möchten wir gerne die absolut besondere Atmosphäre des Hauses! Bassam & sein Team sind musikbegeisterte Menschen, mit einem positiven Blick auf die Welt im Allgemeinen wie im Besonderen. Gastfreundlichkeit wird gelebt und ein echtes Interesse an Menschen, verschiedenen Kulturen, Lebensgeschichten & (Welt-) Musik ist die beeindruckende Basis dieses Guesthouses. Eine klare Empfehlung und wir freuen uns auf ein nächstes Mal!!

나만 알고 싶은 아지트
Pros:

조용하고 멋진 곳입니다. 여기는 때묻지 않은 곳이라 순박하고 친절합니다. 조식도 훌륭하고 오렌지를 마음껏 짜먹었어요. 저녁엔 동네 친구들이 모여서 연주도 하고 누비안 커피를 주던데 넘 신기하고 맛있었어요. 감사합니다.

Cons:

없어요

Pros:

Bassam is the best host ever, extremely helpful with a big knowledge about Nubian history, always smiling and joking! I met him by chance in Luxor. He does everything to make his guests feel as an authentic Nubian. 
Nubian Kingdom Aragheed House is a beautiful decorated paradise with a great view from the roof top terrace on Mount Abu Qubbet el-Hawa.... 
Its very close to the ferry pier. Some small shops are also around.
You can choose cosy clean rooms or even tents under a roof. Bassam provides a typical Nubian breakfast and on order a very delicious dinner cooked by his aunty. In the evening Zoun was preparing an awesome coffee. Its a wonderful ceremony watching him how he is roasting coffee seed, matches ginger and mixes for a tasty coffee. Sometimes musicans are playing and singing. Soooo nice!!! There is a lot of space to relax, on the roof, in the atrium, outside. 
You can walk along the Nile through green fields, directly or by camel or dunky to the tombs, and if Bassam has time, ask him to do a trip in his boat to Philae, on the Nasser Lake for visitig temple Kalabscha, Bet el-Wali and enjoying sunset. He is organizing tours and everthing you need with enthusiasm. Many thanks for Bassam, for his helpful staff, Mahmut and all the other boys, also for his both nieces and especially for his aunt.

You have to stay some days, there is a lot to do,
enjoy  Nubian Kingdom Aragheed guest house on the fullest. 

Cons:

Everything was great!!!! I am fallen in love with this shanti place.
