    Super chilled vibe Location Cost Basic and not flashy

    Rooms bit hot but it was the end of August. Big fans provided outside were lovely

    Really cool rooftop hostel in a great location. Staff is friendly and helpful and it's a good place to meet other travelers. Recommended!

    The two housecats think they own the place (and your food) ;)

    I have never stayed in a nicer, more welcoming hostel. The staff are absolutely lovely and so helpful, the facilities so clean and looked after and the entire place is just a gorgeous terrace oasis. So days I would have happily spent the entire day just on the terrace, reading and sketching and having conversations with the guests and staff. You can opt for a delicious breakfast and arrange travelling and money exchange that were some of the cheapest and most reliable deals we found. Very trustworthy and just such a nice vibe! Thank you Dahab!

    No freedom , no privacy , no friendly. 3 undercover cops all the time sitting opposite of the reception and at the reception a guy with Rasta asking questions like you are an enemy of the state and getting you into situation like you have done something illegal .

    It was clean

    The elevator is kind of suicide and just goes to the 6th floor. The hostel is on the 7th floor,means on the roof. It's terribly noisy up there like you sit on the street. On top , when leaving, the door man called me a dog in Arabic which I can understand very well. So, if you want to get a bad insult I can recommend this place !

    Awesome place to be when you want to settle in a central hostel in Cairo. We've been much welcomed and really appreciated the room and the services proposed! Thanks to Dahab Hostel team for your warm hospitality and all the advises provided during our stay

    Location great, friendly and helpful staff, considerate at the booking stage too.

    Door handle loose, stairs up to roof tricky if you have a suitcase.

    The staff is super kind and welcoming, even if you arrive in the middle of the night. The breakfast is good and not overpriced, compared to anywhere else

    The toilet of my room was not super clean as well as the floor of my room. The room was a bit overpriced but overall okay.

    All good -I liked the outside area on the top of the building with the beautiful plants - it made it all seem open; everyone very friendly and a range of like minded people of all ages staying there; great location; basic-clean and they were redoing some of the rooms, so they are constantly keeping up the rooms. Great vibe.

    In Room 3 the door handle inside could be replaced; obviously the spiral staircase from the lift is a feature, but it is a bit tricky when you're older and have a case.

    The whole staff is incredibly friendly, helpful and welcoming. Special thanks to Khaled who greeted me and made me feel welcomed when I arrived in the middle of the night. This is a very special place, on a perfect location.

    Staff members at the hotel were very friendly and nice. I booked a private room with own bathroom. Bathroom can be better.. it is located a bit busy area so I had a trouble sleeping with city noise. Overall, it was good!
