6/10
For African and Egyptian standards, it's quite good. They provide two sheets, which is something rare in Egypt. You can have dinner there at a low price—although they don’t prepare it themselves, you can arrange a time, and they will buy a meal from a nearby place. We paid 250 EGP per plate, which included rice with meat, chicken, and salad (around $5 today).
One very important issue that caused us trouble is that the address listed here and on other websites is incorrect. I ended up in a neighbourhood in the middle of nowhere, where I also met someone else looking for the hotel. It's crucial that they update the address because someone arriving at night could have a really bad experience. I had to ask a local who knew the hotel, as every place I checked was wrong—even the police gave me incorrect directions. I ended up walking all over Luxor for three hours to find the hotel. Luckily, I know my way around and wasn’t afraid, but an average tourist would likely get scared and have a very unpleasant experience.
The cleanliness is not the best, but it wasn’t terrible either. There were some stains, and a stored pillow had red lipstick on it, but compared to other hotels I’ve stayed at, this one is not bad and offers good value for its price. The water isn’t super hot, just warm, but it’s enough for a shower. The breakfast is average, but the coffee is terrible—definitely don’t order it.
