My first day in Alexandria I was able to hire a driver to pick me up and drop me off at the hostel. I arrived at around 5:30 but I couldn’t check in until 1, but the receptionist was very helpful by giving me a blanket to rest. Staff was nice, location is excellent which makes walking to the nearby site attractions accessible, breakfast is good too. Place was fine with me. Thank you.

A neat hostel in the centre of Alexandria. Close to the Coptic Cathedral, Kavafis museum, and Roman theatre. Amazing staff. I would like to mention Zeira for arranging my breakfast box!
