Desayuno podría ser mejor al igual que limpieza de los baños. Por favor hagan algo con las moscas en las áreas comunes! Resto todo ok!

Translated to English

Breakfast could be better as well as cleaning the toilets. please do something about the flies in the common areas!

Highly recommended. Really great location with extremely friendly staff who are keen to help and answer any questions. It is a hostel so facilities and cleanliness are at the standard level - however this is a plus and it was what I would expect. They are also extremely communicative and help with transport to and from the airport if you need it which is a real positive! If you are staying in Cairo and trying to keep it cheap you cannot do better!

Everything was good here. The staff were helpful, and my room was great. They helped me with transportation to and from the airport, and they helped me communicate with the organizers for other trips when I had problems. Any question was answered quickly and courteously.
