    During my stay at Midtown, I was pleasantly surprised by how helpful and friendly the staff were. They went above and beyond to assist me with any minor questions or issues that I had, even going as far as calling someone in Egypt to help resolve a matter for me. The personal touch and genuine hospitality made me feel welcome and valued as a guest. Despite the price being a bit higher than what I'm accustomed to, I would definitely recommend this hostel for the exceptional service they provide.

    The hostel is conveniently located near Mohammed Naguib metro stop, making it easy to explore the city. It is surrounded by cafes, restaurants, and shops, providing ample options for dining and shopping. the staff at the reception are friendly and always ready to assist guests. the rooms are spacious and well-maintained, with comfortable beds and daily cleaning service. the breakfast, served in the room, is delicious and satisfying. Some rooms offer a sweet balcony with a nice view, perfect for enjoying breakfast or just relaxing.

    The entrance to the building can be a bit difficult to find as it is located in an alley.

    The hostel was clean and new, with a lovely bakery nearby and local shops. It was conveniently located within walking distance to attractions such as the Egyptian Museum and a pedestrian area with local restaurants and cafes. the staff was quite helpful, and the breakfast was good. the rooms differed in standard, but the deluxe rooms with balconies were very pleasant.

    Felt looked after, no complaints whatsoever.

    Loved hiking and cycling, delicious continental/buffet breakfast, parking and lounge. Enjoyed TV in the common area and meeting new people at the reception hall. Safety features were on point!

    What a thrill to have the same breakfast every day, and the horror of a slow elevator.

    A true hidden gem! the hostel was conveniently located in the heart of the city, making it easy for us to explore and visit all the popular attractions. We were just a short walk away from the Egyptian Museum and there was a nearby metro station for further exploration. the room we stayed in was surprisingly spacious and comfortable, with a balcony that offered lovely views. the breakfast provided was delicious and filling, a great way to start our day of adventure. the staff were extremely friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with any queries or requests we had.

    The hostel's location right in the heart of downtown is simply mind-blowing. Despite the dodgy entrance and outdated elevator, the renovated rooms are surprisingly clean and spacious. The staffs are super friendly and always ready to help. The air conditioning is banging and the beds are super comfortable. The breakfast, although small, is sufficient and served in the room daily. a jaw-dropping experience with great value for money.

    I really liked the friendly and helpful staff at this hostel. They were always willing to assist and went above and beyond to make sure I had a pleasant stay. the cleanliness of the premises was impressive, thanks to the hardworking cleaning staff. I also appreciated the central location of the hostel, as it was conveniently close to all the attractions and amenities in the area.

    There were some aspects of my stay that I didn't like. there were some issues with the facilities.

    Had a great stay over New Year's. the room was spacious and just like the pictures. Room was clean and had a nice colonial feel to it. the location was perfect, near many popular attractions. Made it easy to explore and enjoy the city. - the breakfast was delicious and included in the room charge. Loved how they prepared it individually for each guest. Coffee was great too!

    Some noise disturbances during the stay. Staff members and their friends were talking loudly late into the night, which made it difficult to sleep.

    The hostel is located in downtown Cairo, close to popular attractions like Khan El Khalili and the Egyptian Museum. The room with a balcony was spacious and clean, with comfortable beds. The breakfast was very good, especially the coffee. The staff was friendly and helpful, offering a pick-up service from the airport.

    Felt welcomed, no complaints.
