"The place was clean, it looked so nice much nicer than the first hotel we had and it had plenty of room there was a super market across the way the airport is only 10 mins away and had a washer dryer in unit. The host George was very friendly and accommodating. I would book this place again if it were closer to Giza but for the price we paid in rideshare it was worth ever penny booking. This was the best choice for a room before we left back home"
