In terms of location was great, pyramids view and not too far from visiting pyramids and also not too far from Cairo. Staffs were very friendly, polite and helpful Breakfast was great, very traditional and home made meals Just some facilities like hot water, bathrooms towels weren’t clean! There was no soap and body wash!
