No complains, it's a fabulous place with friendly people working here, super clean, well maintained, aesthetic. Beds are super comfy and you can even stand on them, as the ceilings in the building are very high. There are enough of bathrooms and toilets on every floor, you will not wait in line. I work remotely, internet is good, it goes off from time to time, but they called the mechanic and fixed that, these people do really care. The house and the territory are very beautiful, it feels like an oasis in the constant rush of Cairo. I extended my stay for 1 more week and will come back the next time I'm in Cairo.

We had a perfect 3 night stay. As the name DAR suggests it was a true home stay experience. Mohamed and his staff are wonderful and truly work towards the best comfortable stay. Rooms were clean and comfortable with the best possible view of the pyramids. It's a pretty new establishment and Mohamed and his staff are really appreciative of some feedbacks and are keen to improve their service. Mohamed even took us on a short tour at our request, which we truly appreciate. Will definitely stay here for any of our future visits. Highly recommended.

Very good location and safe lifts. The entrance to the hotel is clean and welcoming. I came early and they gave us an early checking-in because of it. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were very clean and the beds were comfortable and big. The area was good and the rooms were sound-proof. Ac units worked well and wifi was also stable. The breakfast was very nice, and when we requested an omelette, extra bread and tea they provided us with them. Very safe location with lots of cheap food stores, coffee shops and restaurants.

The dormitory was very comfortable and clean, and the bathroom included. Breakfast was delicious. The staff were amazing, extremely helpful with tips about the local area (where to eat, and pit fall to look out for, ect.). The hostel also organised tours that were really good, and at a good price.

Very good location in the center of Cairo. 10 minutes walking to the Egyptian Museum and surrounded by restaurants and shopping. Safe neighborhood. The service was excellent, very kind people!! Nice breakfast. The building is a little bit old in the outside, but the hostel rooms are very nice and comfortable.

The hostel is conveniently located in the city center of Cairo. There are restaurants and hidden cafes nearby which made it appealing for me. My small private room was cute with a comfortable bed, AC, bathroom and perfect for a night stay. In addition, the hostel offers dormitory rooms for solo travelers. I felt very safe when walking in the area alone. The staff was friendly, kind, and helpful. Thank you for letting me use the washer.
