About
Dorm beds and a few private rooms, a shared kitchen and a rooftop where travellers swap tips over tea.
It is about a 14-minute walk from the Grand Egyptian Museum road, on Saqqara Road. Run by the same family since 1983, the team is used to welcoming visitors from all over the world and is happy to help in English and Arabic.
This is a fictional demo listing used to show how Giza Spot presents a place.
Getting there

Finding the entrance
About 14 minutes on foot from the Grand Egyptian Museum road. Ask for "Sphinx View" — most shopkeepers on Saqqara Road know it.
