"Location: Excellent. It's a 10-minute walk to the east gate of the pyramids and about 3km to the Grand Egyptian Museum, making it convenient for sightseeing. However, due to the poor overall cleanliness and traffic conditions in Giza, if you take a taxi on the street in front of the hotel during traffic congestion, drivers are likely to overcharge you. It's recommended to walk to a main road where traffic is less congested and then take a taxi.
Facilities: To be honest, a bit old, but you can't expect too much in Giza. I accidentally knocked the headboard off, but it was easily hung back up. 🤣 The bathroom has a separate water heater, so you need to remember to turn it on. Most hotels in Egypt don't seem to provide disposable toothbrushes and combs, so you need to bring your own. There's a beautiful terrace with a view of the pyramids, which is great.
Service: Friendly and helpful. I ordered takeout, but there was a communication problem with the delivery person. I asked the owner to help, and it arrived quickly. However, during breakfast, I waited a while and no one came, so I unfortunately gave up on breakfast.
Overall: Suitable for a short stay. If you don't have high expectations, this is a good option."
