“Arriving late is no problem, with 24-hour reception providing smooth check-in, and the staff goes above and beyond to accommodate needs like currency exchange or early breakfasts. The location, near the Egyptian Museum and a metro station, makes getting around easy; while the rooms, though perhaps with a squeaky bed, are cozy and well-maintained. In short: a solid home base for exploring the city.”
