    Very good location and safe lifts. The entrance to the hotel is clean and welcoming. I came early and they gave us an early checking-in because of it. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were very clean and the beds were comfortable and big. The area was good and the rooms were sound-proof. Ac units worked well and wifi was also stable. The breakfast was very nice, and when we requested an omelette, extra bread and tea they provided us with them. Very safe location with lots of cheap food stores, coffee shops and restaurants.

    The location was ideal to get to the museum and other tourist attractions. The room was very clean and comfortable but the best thing about the stay though was the staff. We arrived early and Andrew on the desk was very welcoming and allowed us to leave our bags whilst we visited the pyramids.

    My stay at Holy Sheet Plus was nothing short of fantastic! The atmosphere was friendly, the staff incredibly welcoming, and the facilities top-notch. The cleanliness and comfort of the room exceeded my expectations, open-air restaurant and rooftop terrace for breakfast with a view of the city, The breakfast experience was great and you can pick from three different types of plates, The location is ideal, they run a range of tours with an affordable price, place to stay at in heart of Cairo !
