There are multiple supermarkets and stores nearby, the view is nice, speciay from the balcony of the communal room. The staff are really friendly, room was clean and tidy. Breakfast at the hostel was oriental (fool, falafel, salad, scrambled eggs and jam), very filling. One of the staff (his nickname is Manga) was very nice even after checking out he offered to make me a tea. Highly recommend. ##### Keroles Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Yasuyo Mar 3, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Good hotel The room and bathroom were clean.

Gladly we found a good place to stay. The hostel was so cool with a classic and nostalgic vibes but a little bit hard to find the hotel with no big sign n it was located in front of big road so there’s so many car at that time. But overall, the stuffs the the room the breakfast the amenities the internet is good.

Many local restaurants in the block behind the hotel. If you want to try local cuisine there is plenty to choose from. The Reception staff was helpful and provided great service. The Hotel/Hostel is on the 5 and 6th floor in a building that feels strange walking into. Entry floor of the building is dark and dusty with a bench that makes you wonder where you arrived. 1st floor looked deserted with a door with arabic letters and an open window overviewing a broken house facade, 2nd floor news tv channel, 3rd floor investment in touristic real estate, 4th floor Sinai hotel and dive center, 5th floor is reception of the Meramees hotel. Walking the steps up the building there is many question if you are at the correct location. The room was great, I had the double bed room with en-suite bathroom. Great room for the price! Solid breakfast with falafel and omelette The only drawback is the elevatorshaft outside the window. in the hallway there is two toilets for the dorms and rooms without toilet and unfortunately during my visit one was broken and continues flushing all night. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Karyn Nov 4, 2016 Disliked: Staff & service #### Can't recommend On arrival at accommodation said they did not yet have our booking confirmation as we had only booked a couple of hours before. They asked us what room we had booked. We told them a room with a private bathroom. After sometime and a couple of calls the guy on reception said we had only booked a double room with shared bathroom. Without our own confirmation we could not show him otherwise. Instead of a room with a double bed, private bathroom, and balcony, we were given a room with 4 single beds, shared bathroom and a window. We received a copy of our booking confirmation later that day and presumed the accommodation did as well. Instead of changing our room the guy on reception asked my husband to pay him a tip for giving us a room with a view, meaning it had a window. The room we had been given was huge in size so from that point of view was comfortable. The air-conditioner worked well but the only control was on or off. The shared bathrooms were reasonably clean and the shower pressure was ok. One of the toilets was broken and the other had a cistern that took ages to fill so it often wasn't flushed. The free wi-fi was hit and miss and worked 2 out if the 3 days we were there. The included breakfast was pretty ordinary and was the same every day. The common area was a great place to meet other travelers but was close to reception that always seemed full of locals who were very loud and did not seem to be guests staying at the accommodation. , ##### Karyn ### 4/10 Poor #### Maria Jan 8, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, amenities I stayed there for 3 weeks. There are at least 4 issues which make this place difficult to stay. The breakfast starts at 8:30, which is inconvenient for all the guests, as it is too late, so many of us pay for it but skip it. The cooking lady is not in rush> A after 40 minutes of waiting (I was the only guest!), I asked about their problem. She began LOUDLY, RUDELY and IN FRONT OF ME discussing me with the other staff saying nasty things about me. I said that it was unappropriated and never ate thereafter. They do not care and did not reimburse the cost of my breakfasts (I asked for this). The second issue: the front desk ladies are unprofessional: they never greet guests. Nada, the daughter of the owner of the hostel, is constantly stuck into her phone and speaks to all the guests as if they are dust under her feet. The third: a complete absence of any flexibility. Once they receive your money, you will never see them. When I arrived at the hostel, my plans changed, and I asked about moving a checking out date TWO weeks before the original termination, but the owner refused saying that he "would lose." The fourth: a bare min. is invested into maintenance, and whatever is done, is done awfully. For instance, the screws that they used for putting a bed together, are sticking out for abut 7 cm. I damaged my leg so bad, that it is healing till now, and I hope that there would be no permanent ugly scar there! No wonder, such things happen with such an attitude to the guests! ##### Maria Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Denis Jan 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Chambre calme et propre dans un quartier central ou tout est accessible à pied.a recommandé pour un rapport qualité prix tres intéressant ##### Denis Stayed 6 nights in Dec 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Akiko Dec 8, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### 使いやすい タフリール広場に近く交通や飲食は便利。施設は古いが部屋の掃除は行き届いていて使い安いがシャワーの出は弱い。エアコンは冷房のみ。 周囲に夜遅くまで開いてる店も多く安心。ドライヤーを貸してくれた。 ##### Akiko Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tomas Jun 28, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities I had an excellent stay at the Hostel.

Gece otele giriş yaptığımızda bize otel odamızın dolu olduğunu söylediler yanlışlıkla başkasınada satılmış olduğunu söyleyip ve bize otelin 5 kişilik tuvaletsiz banyosuz hostel odası gösterildi ve itiraz ettik çünkü biz otel odamızı özel banyo ve tuvalet dahil 2 günlük şekilde ayırtmıştık bizi 1 günlük başka otele gönderdiler otel ayarladılar ama oranında özel tuvaleti yoktu ertesi gün otele geldiğimizde kaba bir şekilde neden geldiğimizi sorguladılar bağırdılar ve itiraz ettiler . O otelde kalmayacağımızı söyleyip bize düzgün bir otel ayarlamasını söyledik ve kaba bir şekilde tartışmaya devam ettiler hakkımızı zorla alıp bizi düzgün bir otele yerleştirmelerini sağladık ve bu tartışmalarla uğraşırken piramitere gitmeye vaktimizin daraldığını bundan sorumlu olduklarını söylediğimizde bize özel tur ayarladılar ama siz bu sorunlarla karşılaştığınızda sizi çözümsüz bırakabilirler . en başta yapması gerekeni esn sonunda kavga ederek yapması bizi sinir edip enerjimizi düşürdükten sonra yaptıkları için bir anlamı kalmadı. Kesinlikle profesyönellikten uzak müşteri memnuniyetini önemsemeyen kaba çalışanlarla müdürle karşılaşabileceğiniz bir işletme asla tavsiye etmiyoruz. ##### Mert Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Simon Jan 28, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Very Nice Place to Stay.
