Pyramids homeland — Hotel in Giza

Just got back from a week-long trip in Egypt, and wanted to share some quick points about my experience at the hotel:

Does not get easily recognized by Google Maps; many Ubers and taxi drivers had some difficulty finding us given the location, so we had to give the address of the hotel right beside it (Pyramids Loft). Fantastic view, the rooftop has an incredible view of the Pyramids and the Sphinx, could honestly just spend hours there looking at the monuments. It's located right beside the Pyramids which is nice, but also does not smell the greatest. Lots of horses right outside the hotel. Rooms are alright; beds are relatively comfy, internet is questionable but did the trick for us since we did not spend much time actually in our room. The problem came with the washrooms and the doors. The washroom was very small, and the shower drain never worked properly. This meant that using the washroom after a shower was a bad experience as the floors were always soaked. The doors were also very difficult to work with, as the locks never quite worked unless they were in a very specific position. We were taking a trip to Jordan in the middle of our trip to Egypt, and had the hotel booked just to have a place to store our suitcases in. To make sure we were protected, we asked the managers for an invoice, which they delayed giving to us for a VERY long time. In fact, it was not until just hours before our departure that we received this invoice. While our belongings were safe and we got the receipt before leaving, their hesitancy to send us a receipt was very suspicious. The price is excellent however, with it costing our family of 4 just 266 USD for 6 days (works out to a little over 10 USD a night per person, which is significantly less than the 'nicer' hotels in Egypt) The people are also very nice, and genuinely willing to help. Their English is alright, not perfect, but you can definitely communicate without a terrible amount of difficulty. They are a bit pushy in trying to get you to purchase THEIR tours as opposed to anywhere else, but that's understandable (for the record, we did not book with them so I wouldn't be able to speak about that in a great amount of detail).

Overall, good place for the price, but definitely a good amount...

Pros: staff is nice Cons: Unclean: place is awful, just a bit clean would be great Fake photos: photos from booking are fake, the place is not that one. No reception: when you leave there is no reception Location: near to the horses and bad smell Beds: horrible, if you are a bit allergic to dust you're going to have a bad night Breakfast: not expect anything here, it's better just to buy something. Fried egg without salt and much oil, and dirty kitchen

And I can continue. Just book another place if you expect a clean place. I had to go to another hotel (shadow pyramid which is...

Hospitality on the level of luxurious hotels!

I have been staying here for a few days and been using the place for remote work also 💻👾

It was out of worldly experience working and looking at Pyramids from this beautiful place. Or waking up and eating breakfast while gazing your eyes with seventh world wonder from ancient world.

All that becomes even better with marvellous hosts as Gina, Yousef and rest of the crew. It was delight listening to Amr Diab while working from here.

Room was really clean and had AC, along with...
