The hotel is conveniently situated in the heart of Cairo, making it perfect for exploring the city. The rooms are basic with shared bathrooms, but the overall experience is decent for the price paid. The service is adequate, but could be more attentive to guests' needs. The central location is a major plus, although the value for money is average due to the basic amenities. The facilities are basic but functional, suitable for a short stay in Cairo.
