Booked this Hotel over several similar hotels that were priced better because of reviews but the hotel was just average for this type of hotel in Egypt. When I checked in I asked for assistance getting to the Unfinished Obelisk and if there were tours or a souk close by the Hotel. The manager booked a very safe and nice driver to take us to the Obelisk but when we returned to hotel to go shopping at the souk the girl the manager asked to do it didn’t want to and she said to follow her. We walked for about 15 minutes in a dirty and sketchy area of Aswan while she talked on the phone complaining about having to take us. I asked if we were almost there and she said it would be a walk up a hill to see the town(nothing I asked to do)then another 30 minutes to Souk. I said never mind. She called an open air TukTuk driven by a 10 year old boy who almost knocked my daughter to the ground as he pulled off she was climbing in. We went back to hotel and to our room. The manager did refund the $20’s we paid for the tour. The people in the room next to us decided to party in front of our room instead of the big area set up for evening relaxation.
