8/10 Very Good
Feb 16, 2020
Comfortable but find your own driver
We stayed in the family room (changed from double), as the double room was a dark pit. The family room was spacious for 2 people, for a small additional fee. The hotel is in a convenient location, a 5 minute walk from the ferry terminal, but there are no signs so its difficult to find. There is a shortcut through the hotel, which we didnt know about until the final day, so ask the staff about that.
The breakfast was OK, bread, an egg, some cucumber/tomaoes, and condiments (jam/honey). We stayed for 3 nights, and it was the same breakfast, everyday.
Generally, we were pretty happy with the hotel, however, we booked a car through the hotel to take us to the tourist attractions, which in hindsight, we should have found our own driver. They charged us 400 Egyptian pounds, which is considerably higher than the local taxi drivers, plus as the tourist attractions are on the West Side, around 15 minutes drive away, it was rather dishonest of the hotel to charge so much.
They also offered to drive us to the aiport for 250 Egyptian pounds, again extortionate, as when we arrived, we paid 80.
Overall, its an OK hotel, its cheap and convenient enough, but do not book a car with them for the tourist attractions.
