Joy Hotel

Not a great start to our trip to Egypt, no one at the apartment to meet us, we waited almost 2 hours in the blistering heat in a run down apartment front with no aircon in July. The apartment itself was ok but zero kitchen facilities. The beds were comfortable and the bathroom was suitable, there is no air con in the second bedroom only a small fan, or the hallway, only in the main bedroom so the heat during the night for the bedroom without was unbearable. The lift was an experience and no lighting on the stairs which we had to use a few times due to the power going out everyday in the afternoons. There are lots of shops around and taxis are very cheap, it’s a good central location.

The apartment is nice, and the staff are incredibly helpful. The host assisted me with everything and was available at any time, even after midnight. I'm currently at home, but when I return to Egypt, I will definitely stay at this hotel again. They even arranged a free Uber for me. I felt like I was with family; they went above and beyond to make my stay enjoyable. The hotel offers many affordable trips, and if you ask for a discount, they are very accommodating. Unfortunately, I didn't have enough money for the last trip to the Black and White Desert, but they assured me it was okay my friend; their priority is your happiness. If you don't have any plans, they will make them for you. They truly treat their guests well.
