Worse than I could describe. Paid for two days, left after one. Couldn't eat lunch for constantly driving flies awAy. Flies in bedroom cos no-one haad bothered Cleaning after previous occupant. With one exceptiOn staff disinterested, isolated location.I was meeting a friend, Marie Anne Rodgers at the hostel but went to the airport to meet her and paid for a taxi to DahAb tO slepp there. This place cost me a lot of money and stress and was easily the worst I've found in Egypt. Should be closed down.
Hostel Overview
The hostel is located only 10 minutes from the city centre. At the entrance is a big reception, gardens on your right, playgrounds on your left . Rooms in the hostel's 2 floor typically have 2-3 beds. When you open your window in the morning above Om Elsayed hill, feel the warmth of the sun with a view over the city center & Aqapa gulf!You are in the city of peace, 500 km from Cairo, 336 km from Suez, 12 km from Ras Mohammed. Sharm El Sheikh lies on the Aqaba gulf, an international summer and winter resort preferred by vacationers for experiencing fishing, swimming, diving and relaxing.
Ras Mohamed: a paradise which God endowed with the most gorgeous formations of coral reefs and thousand species of rare fish, distinct marine life, warm water springs, wild animals, birds and mangrove trees. It is renowned as the best diving area in the world since it includes the most exquisite coral reefs and rare colored fish. It was recently declared a National Park.
Two different ferry services link Sharm Al Sheikh and Hurghada (where we have another hostel). A fast ferry links the towns in 1 hour. A slower ferry make the trip in around 3 hours. Both services permit travellers to take the one-way journey or a round trip cruise on the Red Sea.
Note: We don't provide mixed accommodation at our hostels in Egypt; but a man and woman can stay in the same room if they are: Husband and wife or Father/Mother and their children or brothers and sisters.
