    Breakfast isn't enough.

    It was generally close to the pyramids and centrally located. You can easily go to museums and Tahrir center by using Uber. This guesthouse is like the hostel we know. It is on the ground floor with few rooms and just behind the street. Mr. Muhammed and his staff were concerned and smiling. In conclusion, it is not a 5 star hotel and it was fine for me to sleep. At first it gave an air of insecurity, but I stayed for 2 days and I am satisfied.

    Shower could be a bit cleaner, poor breakfast.

    Good location- 5mins walk to the Giza complex. Friendly, helpful host. The host helps to organize tours if you need. Cozy guesthouse, nice clean room. Good quality for the good price.

    The apartment is a bit “hidden” so it may be hard to find at first. Also outside is quite dirty and smelly - but this is pretty much the case for the full area.

    Pleasant apartment in Giza, 5’ away from the pyramids. The room was quite clean with all the main facilities. We had few issues (e.g broken flush) but the owner was very kind and willing to help, so he fixed everything immediately.

    Considering how much I paid, and the quality of other places in Egypt nearby touristic places, I think this was a good option. But do have in mind that the bedroom was rustic and its cleaning could be improved. Also, as it is a house-like place, noisy people in the entrance hall where the lounge is could be easily heard. I woke up a day around 5 am for this reason. It didn't happen on the first day of my stay, though.

    This B&B offers good value for money. It is close to the Giza Pyramids and provides a good breakfast with fresh local food. The room is well-equipped, and the communication with the owner is very good. The owner runs a travel agency for visiting Egyptian landmarks. I recommend you check their options. I took one to Alexandria and one to the Pyramids in Cairo. I would have preferred to stay a day in Alexandria and take a local tour, but the one around Cairo visiting the Pyramids was great value for money. Do ask for the specific trip schedule and feel free to ask for accommodating your needs.

    My boyfriend and I stayed at Mohammed's guest house for almost a week. We found the place really nice, nearby the Pyramyds, and comfortable. Mohammed really helped us during our stay, suggesting places to go and trips to do. We really raccomend to ask for the transfer he offers to arrive from the Airport to the guesthouse (even though it's a little bit expensive compared to Egyptian prices), the driver showed us the city and explained us a lot about Egyptian culture and traditions, in order to uderstand them better and know how to behave. I think that we couldn't find a better place for our stay, with an host that provides you everything you need and is always available for a chat. Thank you Mohammed and the cleaning lady.

    Both myself & my daughter's had a very pleasant stay here. The guesthouse is in close locality to the pyramids and the host Mohammed is very kind. The decor of the guesthouse has been tastefully done and has a cosy home-like feel which is cut off from the hustle and bustle of Cairo. Rooms are very comfortable and clean with ensuite bathrooms and I slept better here than I had during my whole trip to Egypt. Highly recommend 👌

    Really nothing to complain about.

    My experience was wonderful. The owner really cares for guests and we had a lovely conversation that was interesting but not too intruding. The room was clean, simple, and beautiful. There was a small terace and I woke up to a few birds singing, just to make your day start well. It was shocking that my room was so quiet while so close to a busy road.

    There was no view of the pyramids from any of the two rooms we booked, however we were very close to the location and could easily walk to a restaurant with a roof nearby that indeed had this beautiful view shown in the pictures

    The owner met us personally and told us about the location. He was very friendly and welcoming. The cleaning lady didn’t speak English but tried to accommodate us, prepare our breakfasts and was generally very kind. Very nice location close to the necropolis.

    the interior is beautiful, sophisticated, with the soul of ancient civilizations. Spacious common room, you could sit freely while having a cup of tea. The only drawback is the lack of windows in some rooms, but all the rest is beautiful and gives relaxation after the voyagers. The owners show the monuments with passion.
