We liked this place a lot. On the edge of downtown Cairo, it's accessible to the heart of the city and at any hour of the day or night, you can find what you want or need. Staff (Mr. Wael and Mr. Hissam) were delightful and helpful in so many ways. In this area, you wouldn't expect luxury and some aspects of the hotel are a little run down. (An example is a balcony door that wouldn't quite close, letting in a few mosquitos.) Breakfast is okay--the rooftop dining area is nice. Overall, glad we stayed here.
