At the hostel every room is equipped with air conditioning, a seating area, a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, a kitchenette, a dining area, a safety deposit box and a private bathroom with a bidet, free toiletries and slippers. All units will provide guests with a desk and a kettle. Nadia, the owner, is so sweet. She really made me feel welcome, and her breakfast was great! The hostel is clean and quiet, and the other women there were very nice. It felt like a family there. I would definitely recommend this hostel to any women who are traveling in Riyadh. I felt very safe which is important as a solo female traveler. Each bed also had a locker, so you could put your stuff there if you needed. She also gave us a little welcome package with a disposable towel and some toiletries. I wanted to stay longer, but she did not have availability the next couple of days that I was here. There were also laundry facilities, a game room, and a nice place on the roof to hang out.

This beautiful guesthouse hosted by the most wonderful lady has an incredible view of the Nile. The facilities are clean and the bed and pillows are very comfortable. The breakfast was absolutely delicious and she was kind enough to make us a superb dinner too as we were too tired from our travels to go out. The lovely host is responsive and happy to organise cheap transport for you to go wherever you need in Aswan. It might seem out of the way but the location is perfect for all the sights. I would 100% return here to enjoy the beautiful view, the delicious home cooked food, and the company of the wonderful hostess.
