"This is one of the few hotels in the heart of medieval Cairo. Rooms are very basic, although they include a fridge and some have air conditioning."
"Rather grimy, and rooms overlooking the square are harangued by Cairo’s loudest muezzins, and festivals are celebrated all night long in Midan al-Hussein, just outside."
