It's a simple but beautiful hotel with a pretty beautiful rooftop as well overlooking the Great Pyramids, especially at night. The rooms are very clean and very well maintained and they've a pretty good size. But the best part of the experience was it's Staff. They are very friendly and amazing in every moment with us, especially our host, Alaa, that was available pretty much at any time of the day.
