Management has given a false impression of what the hotel is. In fact, it is an old building in downtown Cairo which is being renovated. The pictures of the spa are not useful as there was no staff and it was suggested to me that I could go to one of the 5 star hotels which have a spa!! There is no picture of a buffet breakfast, because there isn't. What you get is a basic two bread, cheese, yogurt, fried egg, and a few pieces of melon - no vegetables. When I asked for a refund because of the false advertising, the management refused and stopped answering Expedia's phone calls. It would have been better to go to the 20 USD hotel across the street!
The "buffet" breakfast.  There was also no a/c or heater in my room.

Staff at time of my check in was very friendly and co-operative. Room is nice and clean, we have electric kettle in room but no tea, milk or coffee so please get your own tea bags or coffee sachet with you otherwise there is plenty available around there. Location is brilliant and very close to many city attractions, plenty of shopping around and metro station in nearby. Lot of local street food is there in that area. Breakfast is very basic but served the purpose. Overall, good experience, clean, nice room and it is definitely worth staying there in medium budget.

Entrance on ground floor of a large block with tiny poor lift to hotel on 5th floor. Room and upstairs reception spotlessly clean, staff very pleasant, breakfasts simple but adequate. Room very simple with little usable storage, no hanging space, no chairs. Beds very firm. Shower superb but water flows over all floor. Room was adjacent to main road so very noisy.earplugs required. Location quite convenient to access old Cairo and old museum. Few decent places to eat close by..mainly fast food.

For he price, this room is not worth it. It was clean and had two twin beds. However, there was little space to move around the beds and the room was COLD with no way to turn up the heat. There was only a fitted sheet and a very thin quilt on the bed. I actually wore my winter vest to bed. Do yourself a favor and choose a different place.

The building is frightening. The stairs of filthy, full of debris, unlit, graffiti, broken down doors . . . Yes, there's a small elevator to the 5th floor where the rooms are located but beware. The rooms were excessively loud. The breakfast was unsatisfactory and coffee was near impossible to get. I get this isn't the staff's fault. Having said that, I left two nights early because of the building and other issues. I was told I would get a refund but they never followed through, unfortunately. Orbitz indicated that they wouldn't answer their phone when they tried to work with them to follow-up on my refund. The conclusion? Orbitz said that "because they wouldn't answer their phone" they could not issue a refund. That seems illogical - wouldn't it be the other way around? If the establishment wouldn't answer their phone, shouldn't that be a red flag. Book elsewhere and be safe.

Mostly the staff communications. I stayed there 5 days and 4 nites out of which the water to the room was messed up for the first 3 days both in terms of temperature as well as the flow. As a result me and my wife could not shower for the first 3 days. Could not get the story straight from the staff whether the problem was with their facilities or was it an outside problem with the municipality. I will say that once the water got turned back on the shower was excellent. Also the room was very small. Other than that the Hotel was was good in terms of location and cleanliness
