“Quite good”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2010
2
people found this review helpful

I can say it's quite good because its cheap hotel. Me and my friend stayed in twin room. Beds were a little bit uncomfortable. Bathroom was reasonable. There was a TV in this room and there was BBC World, finally we heard some British accent instead of Arab english. I would like to mention location. Its location is very good I think. It's in the middle of the castle and Alexandria library. There are lots of coffee houses which you can find sisha near the hotel and bunch of restaurants. 10 steps away you can find internet cafe.

“If the cheap is what you are really looking for”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 July 2008

person found this review helpful

+ Cheap price
+ Friendly staff
+ Good A/C (was helpful in summertime)
+ As a woman travelling alone I felt myself safe

+- Location - located in downtown near to sea. It is a good thing, but it also has the dark side - the noiseness of the are is quite big.
+/- Breakfast - Simple and enough for me, but always the same. The view of the breakfast place is good, though.

- Dirty bathroom (!) and rooms
- Quite unforcomtable beds

So, if you are looking really cheap accomodation and not going to stay long time, I could recommed this hotel. But if you are ready to pay more a little more for accomodation than 20 $ per night, then choose an another hotel.

Even if the staff is friendly and really helpful, it doesen't change the fact that bathrooms and rooms were quite dirty. The cleaner just took the rubbish away and made my bed - he didn't do anything to the floors which were dirty. In my badroom there were all the time puddle on the floor and he couldn't clean it away.

  • Liked — The friendly staff
  • Disliked — Dirtiness of the rooms

“if cheap is what motivates you”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 April 2008

person found this review helpful

because it was cheap we really couldn't complaint much. we stayed in a triple, and had our own bathroom. the place was pretty dirty, the beds were hard and the blankets were questionable. the bathroom was very simple, no bathtubs, simple shower, that basically floods the whole bathroom after you finish. however, it had high ceilings and a pretty convenient location. unfortunately you cannot see the ocean.
