Quartos limpos perto da entrada de Zamalek. Ambiente do hostel agradável e bem decorado.
Os banheiros são fora do quarto, não dentro, mesmo se o anúncio tiver "banheiro privado". Só tem um quarto com banheiro dentro, mas reservei ele e não estava disponível no dia.
Não há janelas antirruído então o barulho é bem alto. Está do lado da rodovia... Se você tem problemas com barulho não recomendo.
No mais, um lugar muito bom.

Overlooking Nile River, Zamalek is located at a very convenient location to any tourist attractions in Cairo. Although a hostel, I got my own room that is not only spacious, but also very clean. Kareem and his staff are very friendly and helpful in providing any service and advices at any time. I see many "Thank you" notes in different languages on the wall. You will like this hostel.
