Negatief: Netheid, voorzieningen en staat van de accommodatie en faciliteiten
When we checked in, after a long flight, and entering this hotel through a very narrow and uncomfortable looking entrance, we were told we had no room. The receptionist said that I had to pay them more, to be shifted to another hotel down the road, and it was not a happy start at all. He tried to call the owner, and there was no answer. After several attempts the owner answered and yelled at the helpless receptionist who was trying very hard to find a solution. The excuse was that the room was not ready having made a reservation from the night before. Finally …We got relocated to another hotel. Not feeling safe at all. I spoke to the owner, via the phone of the receptionist, and he was so unapologetic about the entire situation. We had to walk to the next hotel with our bags as they refused to get us a taxi stating it was very near. However this is not the kind of welcome one expects on arrival in Egypt on my maiden visit and having been scammed by the taxi driver from the airport to the Giza area hotel ( a ride that is usually around US$20/- $25/- he charged us $45/- which we learned was an absolute scam. By now we were not trusting anyone in Egypt. The properties in this area are noisy and unclean. Yes it is close to the Pyramids and the Grand Museum. It is an amazing country but most people are trying constantly to overcharge and scam tourists. Everyone J walks. The streets are noisy and people are not respectful of each other. locals even told me ‘do not trust anyone.
