Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, though clean and spacious, were very basic and quite old, making it extremely loud due to poorly closing windows. However, the hotel is right on the Nile, offering a beautiful view. The service was friendly and attentive, with Raefat going the extra mile to ensure a great experience. The location was bustling on the waterfront, providing easy access to transport and landmarks. Dining was acceptable but lacked variety typical of midrange hotels in Egypt. Overall, a decent stay with some drawbacks but with good value for money.
