columbia downtown cairo

Power outage upon arrival lol. Was forced to carry five large suitcases up TWELVE flights of stairs. Not ideal upon arriving to Egypt. The location is on the 6th floor. Was only using this location to drop our bags and come back many hours later to grab our bags and head to our flight to Aswan. The power outage was not the fault of the hotel since it impacted the entire building - but it was only that one building that was impacted. The room and the accommodations are fine given the price, no issue there. Each room within the hotel has its own key, so you can lock your room and not worry about your belongings. I think if perhaps you are a solo traveler and are on a tight budget this might be a good choice. It was difficult to find and even our taxi driver had trouble finding it at first. However, the address is indeed correct, you just need to look for the very tiny sign with the hotel name.

Property needs good Maintenance

Location was excellent it is close to everything you would want to see. I think many travelers coming from the States would be disappointed but as far as a place to sleep and keep your stuff while you check out Cairo go it was good and did the job.

Good

The hostel is located in the 6th floor, the room was very cleaned, if you want to stay a night is a good choice,
