8.6 out of 10, Excellent, (57)
"Pretty typically hostel. Nice staff. It’s all outdoors, on a rooftop, so not sure how comfortable that would be in the summer. WiFi was decent. They had staff continually cleaning the bathrooms and showers. Room was fine, nothing spectacular, or horrible. Really close to the Egyptian museum, not far from a subway stop. Lots of restaurant options within walking distance, even a couple of bars and drinkies next door (one of the few places to purchase alcohol). "

"Really unsafe place. No hotel but hostel located in the 4th level and the elevator is from 150 years ago with almost no maintenance at all. The below 3 floors look like abandoned. One night we had power cut off for one hour, it was general but we were wondering if this happens to you in the elevator. There is no common area and breakfast is in your room in a small table put in front of your bed. You can listen all the other rooms, toilets and reception."
