凑合过夜。
Pros:

就在火车站旁边，位置便利。房间大，价格合理还带早饭。

Cons:

火车噪音太可怕，我们的窗户是车站背面，但火车鸣笛一晚上没停过。用隔音玻璃即可解决这个困扰。

Pros:

Everything ok. Breakfast was from 7:00 am. For us they served it at 6:30.

Cons:

Finding the location. It was a quite noisy spot near the railway station. We were disturbed later in the evening in a persistent way by someone of the crew. He silently used google translate to ask how he could come to the Netherlands for work. More people did during our trip. Do they not have chatgpt?

Gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis
Pros:

Das Hotel ist in Ordnung: zwar einfach, aber sauber. Frühstück ok, aber ägyptischer Standard.

Cons:

Die Umgebung ist laut (vgl. Feedback von anderen), aber wenn man einen halbwegs robusten Schlaf ist es gut machbar.

Pros:

Hotel położony tuż przy stacji kolejowej i autobusowej. Dobra baza do podróży po okolicy. W sąsiedztwie liczne sklepy i restauracje. Nie ma się co za bardzo obawiać hałasu stacji - pokoje na wyższych piętrach są dość ciche - trzeba tylko poprosić recepcjonistę. Personel jest bardzo przyjazny i pomocny.

Cons:

Nic

Pros:

Camera ampia, con tutti i servizi essenziali. Personale gentile e preparato. La zona della città decisamente vivace. Ottima la colazione, con tante proposte di cui servirsi al buffet.

Cons:

Proprio per la posizione in una zona molto vivace della città, appena sopra la stazione ferroviaria, l'albergo può risultare non proprio il massimo per chi è alla ricerca di un po' di quiete e relax.

Do not choose Suhaj as a place to stay Minya is way cooler
Pros:

The only good thing about Suhaj was the neighbourhood was pretty cosy and typical egyptian! If you want to experience egyptian culture that's the way to go about, Explore the neighbourhood.

Cons:

It started with the staff. Upon arrival (the one who carried the luggage was friendly) I was asked for my passport in not such a friendly way. But when the guide started to speak Arabic the mood changed. (I don't whether this was because the lack of knowledge of English other languages or...)
We decided to have dinner a the hotel. This took a long time and promised it was fresh. Yet we saw the food arrive from outside... The rooms were basic but not worthy of a 3 star hotel. At least there was tea at the room.
Breakfast... Luckily I am into egyptian food but I can imagine not everyone is into fool (mashed fava beans) and salad etc... No alternative! No coffee. I have no problem with drinking egyptian tea so fine. But when I asked for a second cup, the guy at the restaurant wouldn't have given it to me. Luckily my guide offered up his cup to me.... All not worthy of a 3 star hotel.
If you have the chance look for other places if you really have to stay in Suhaj. My walk in the evening with my guide delivered some better looking hotels and we learned that we were in a poor neighbourhood (well the train station is always/mostly an indication of that) but on booking.com there were only 2 options. So... I really don't reccomend it at all.
