غير صالح للإقامة فيه اطلاقاً حتى لو مجاناً
Cons:

كانت اسوأ تجربة للإقامة في حياتي ، المكان قديم وغير نظيف اطلاقاً مما أجبرني على المغادرة بعد ساعات من الوصول وعدم البقاء بسبب سوء المكان من جميع النواحي وخاصة النظافة ، حيث كانت جميع التفاصيل قذرة بمعنى الكلمة وخاصة السرير والمفارش كانت بحالة مزرية تماماً.
لا انصح بالإقامة فيه حتى وان كان مجاناً لانه غير صالح للإقامة فيه باي شكل من الاشكال

3 days in Cairo
Pros:

Good location. Close to most attractions in town centre and also good variety of places to eat out nearby. The staff was very welcoming and attentive to our needs. The price was great for what we needed. Which was a base to come back to sleep after being out all day. Shower is quite hot. Overall was a good experience for what we paid. Dont expect the Ritz. But expect warm Egyptian hospitality. Thanks for the memories Egyot

Cons:

I was very pleased with the overall experience.
