I love the fact that I could see the pyramids from the the top floor where they serve free breakfast. The room was cold, but I guess it was because I came in March. So everything was great except for one staff member who was very nasty to me because I couldn’t understand her accent so I stayed far from her.

Great views of the pyramids. Easy uber access to the pyramids and the museum. Cold ac. Clean rooms. The breakfast was nice, ask for the guava juice. It’s delicious. We also got in very late at night and we were able to get dinner at the restaurant on the premises so we didn’t have to venture out at midnight.
