In general, it is not bad for me to stay in a single room with a common bathroom for 10 nights.
Above all, I would like to express my gratitude to the staff's efforts to manage the City Hostel clean which is too old and out fashioned building.
* Location & Transportation
Without noise, it is the best location to stay. It is located at 2 2-minute walk distance from Attaba subway station that connects to the Ramsis Railway Station and the Egypt Museum, only 1~3 stops away, charging 6 EGP per way. Of course, you can go to both by walk in 20 minutes. It means you can also enjoy the Nile riverside which is close to the museum.
And it is a 2-minute walk distance from the Attaba market which is the biggest public market in Cairo and so many locals visit to buy their livelihoods stuff at a cheap price.
In addition, you can also walk to the Al Azhar Mosque and Khan El-Khalili traditional market in 30 minutes, and St. Marc Coptic Orthodox Cathedral in AL Azbakeya in 10 minutes
Two problems I experienced are firstly the noi⁹sy from 8 am to 3 am outside the building due to market area and cars' horns. It took 3 days for me to adapt it. Any room in the hostel cannot escape it without changing the windows to soundproof ones. If you are sensitive to sound, it is better to find other lodges in a residential area or modernized ones.
Secondly, its location on the Uber taxi map and other maps is not accurate, so drivers have some problems in finding the city hostel. I have to meet them in front of the KFC next to the Attaba subway station. The signboard of the hotel is too small to recognize it.
* Building and room conditions
Like many other buildings in Cairo, the hostel building is old and shabby. The interior design and facilities are also outdated. However, the staff manages it so clean, particularly a common toilet and shower room.
It is quite convenient a washstand in each room.
However, it is bad there is no electronic kettle to boil water in a room or a common space. I could not enjoy my tea or coffee time at any time. I have to ask for hot drink water every morning when receiving breakfast, and store it in my tumbler.
It will be better to provide a tea or coffee service area in the hostel.
* Cleanness & Safety
Cleanness and safety are very good. I have no issue with this.
* Services
There is no basic service that most guesthouses provide in general: toilet paper and drink water.
Wifi is too weak to use the internet.
Other services like laundry are satisfied.
* Others
During my stay, I couldn't enjoy having an exchange time with other travelers. I think it is because there is no reason to stay in a common space where only sofas and a table are. Largely guesthouse provides a commonplace where guests enjoy better the internet or drinks including tea or coffee and foods, which makes guests meet each other naturally and structurally.
In conclusion, if the hostel provides basic services like toilet paper and commonplace with drink water and electronic kettles, it will be much better.
And it is necessary to change its signboard so that is more recognizable.
Except issues I mentioned above, it is a very good budget lodge.

Usuario invitadoEl lugar estaba limpio, la habitación era un poco más pequeña de lo que imaginaba, el personal era amable y servicial, una estancia excelente por el precio, lo recomiendo a quienes tengan un presupuesto ajustado.
La falta de tiendas locales en este elegante nuevo complejo turístico significa que hay que recordar comprar todo en otro lugar.

Coole Leute getroffen und sind super sympathische Menschen an der Rezeption. Duschen sind klein mit den Toiletten zusammen aber funktioniert im Grunde alles, wie es soll. Kuschelige Katzen waren sogar auch hin und wieder am Start :) War lediglich bei der Ankunft in der Nacht verwirrt, wo der Eingang ist. Als Verbesserungsvorschlag gäbe es für mich nur, dass das Fliegengitter am Fenster repariert werden könnte. In der Nacht kamen ein paar garstige Mücken, um an Leib und Seele zu nuckeln. Man kann kochen und Sachen in den Kühlschrank stellen.

When we arrived, it was a little difficult to find the building, because there was no sign of Lucky Hostel in the lobby. However a very persistent man outside, insisted that the building with sign “El otel”, is the correct building. We trust him and we entered. Another problem, it looked like to use the elevator to 4th floor, we must have access card. We wait for about 5 minutes and fortunately there was a man came down, and we asked his help to tap on the elevator using his card. Other than that, my husband & I were happy to stay in this hostel. Our room was so big and with sofa too!! Staff were very kind and helpful. Breakfast was good. Hot shower was very pleasant in cold morning. And we were very happy that the staff allow us to put our luggage while we were away to Luxor. We stay for total of 4 nights and we were allowed again to put our luggage while we went shopping, because our flight was in the middle of the night.

La ubicación es bastante buena, a aproximadamente 1 km de la Plaza de la Liberación.
El ambiente es absolutamente espectacular, incluso mejor que en las fotos. Es una villa de estilo Old Money con techos altos, reformada con decoración de madera y latón, muy al estilo mediterráneo y norteafricano. Todas las instalaciones son muy nuevas.

Usuario invitadoMe alojé aquí durante mi viaje a El Cairo y la ubicación es excelente.
El wifi funcionaba bien y tuve una estancia estupenda.
El desayuno, que consistía en hummus y pan, estaba bien.
Es una excelente opción para una estancia económica.

The hotel is quite close to the Egyptian museum,
The facility is okay - The place is quite old but clean.
The hotel staff here are very nice especially Mr Anas he was quite energetic and really looking forward to service + friendly
I didn't expect that he was invites me to the lunch together with them
** note** for someone who cannot sleep with the noise - the hotel is quite close to the Egyptian Street which is always honking the horn.
Solution ** ust bring an earplug ( The one that you would receive on in airplane ) and everything's gonna be fine
In conclusion this hotel is reasonably priced for this quality. if you don't expect for something luxury but friendly , This hotel could be your choice

Usuario invitadoLa habitación era espaciosa, el dueño fue muy amable y el desayuno era muy típico de la cocina china. La azotea ofrece vistas panorámicas de El Cairo. Planeo alojarme aquí de nuevo la próxima vez que esté en El Cairo. Además, está muy cerca de museos, la Iglesia Colgante y la Ciudadela de Saladino.

La habitación no es grande, pero está limpia y ordenada. El estilo es un poco retro. Es una casa renovada en el casco antiguo. Está en el sexto piso. El ascensor parece un poco inestable y solo puede llevar a 3 personas a la vez. El personal de recepción es entusiasta. Hay pocas opciones para el desayuno, pero el precio está bien. Es adecuado para viajes económicos.
