I did not show up at this hotel at all. I sent emails and messages and left a few voice messages; no answer till now. They do not care at all. After calling the hotel, finally someone picked up and hung up on me immediately. I wanted to book their shuttle, but no luck communicating. Even $2 is so expensive for here. I preferred to sleep at the airport.

Worth of money but too dirty

Cheapest place in Cairo... It was ok but very dirty beds, no bedbunks and hopefully nothing else, otherwise good. Shared toilet was clean and there was also possibility to wash clothes.
