Liked: Very, very cheap. Once they have done their initial sales pitch, the staff are actually very pleasant.
Disliked: Place is quite dirty. The bathroom in the dorm is seldom cleaned and is quite filthy. The sink is so clogged up that it takes about an hour to drain after you use it. The shower has no drain so the recess quickly floods surrounding your feet with a soup of hair and grime. The dorm room has no window so it is permanently dark. When you arrive the staff before anything else will sit you down and try and convince you to buy one of their tours. The breakfast is also pretty average, (sweet bread, tea and fig jam) but I wasn't expecting more than this for 30 egp a night.

Liked: I liked the staff of the hostel, they are warm, well meaning and helpful, they are really like a family. The hostel is in middle of a downtown, so you really have a feeling you're in the heart of the city. They come to pick you up at the airport free of charge, and also organize sight tours by very cheap prices.
