Great location - minutes from the metro, the nile, the museum etc. A good lounge upstairs for e-access etc. Standard hostel stuff, no major complaints. Like all hostels in Cairo, they'll recommend some tours and guides - my suggestion would be to shop around for better options, or navigate the city on your own, skipping the tours/guides altogether.

The lift was a real treat, but probably quite unsafe. Other than that, location is good (as are most downtown hostels) and the staff were friendly and helpful. Don't believe everything they say about how diffiicult it is to travel independently though (as they try and sell you a tour). Our private bathroom was the cleanest we have seen in a while.

The staff were absolutely wonderful! Rooms are large and clean - old bed sheets and comforters but you get what you pay for. Great location for wandering through downtown and very helpful staff for arranging tours and drivers. I recommend to anyone travelling on a budget.

My room had a strange smell and the breakfast was 3 pieces of bread, cream cheese, butter and jam. The tea was good.

Loved Meerames hostel. I arrived early from my flight (a rarity, I know), and thought I'd have to wait an hour for my pickup... but by the time I arrived, the driver guy was already ready and waiting for me! I got taken to the hostel, where Mustafah showed me around and helped me orient myself. The whole stay was great- breakfast was a little snoozeworthy, but it almost always is... the staff were really great, the kitchen was clean, everything was within walking distance, and it was easy to meet people. Great, great hostel!

I think the Meramees hotel is very good. It's located in the good area, so I could look around by walk. And Everyone who is working at the reception is very kind. Especially Doaa is very cute and lovely and helped us kindly and she can speaks Korean a little, so it was cool. Also they arranged taxi and train instead of us. I wanna recommend to u, :)^_^
