This great little hotel used to come at budget prices, but costs have gone up and some find it expensive for what is on offer. Plus points are friendly, helpful staff and a feast of a breakfast, but the small rooms (with some en suites suitable only for the pretzel-sized) could do with a spot of maintenance for these rates.
The roof terrace doesn't have Nile views, but there is a burlap sunshade and furniture made from palm fronds, and it is a great place to hang out.
