There are so many wonderful aspects of staying at this property I don't even know where to start. The first thing to know is that when you stay here you are treated like a guest not a transaction.
First, the physical apartment is exactly as pictured but more comfortable. The living room furniture is a cozy place to relax before a busy day or a place to recharge after seeing some of the many treasures in and around Cairo. The beds are firm. The master bath shower is amazing - great water pressure with so many options on how to get the sightseeing dirt off oneself! The kitchen is well stocked and Samer even includes some basic food and beverage items, including most importantly ample bottled water for your stay. The TV has Netflix and surround sound. We enjoyed watching a few movies in between being out in the city. And the place has black out shades so you can watch at anytime. But seriously, the view can't be beat. It was a little breathtaking to walk in and see the pyramids out in the distance (to be fair, they are not always visible but when they are, it's amazing). My young boys - 4 and 6 - enjoyed saying good morning and goodnight to them.
Second, Samer is one of the best hosts we have ever stayed with. From the initial inquiry on the property through checkout, he is always available to answer questions and chat about how to optimize your trip. He is friendly, thoughtful and very, very knowledgeable. He has thought of everything to keep his guests happy and safe. He provides a list of local restaurants that are safe to eat at for tourists - seriously don't drink the water or eat anything that may have been washed but not cooked! Some local restaurants are very familiar with the property and will deliver. One thing I learned is always take Samer's suggestions, including....
Hire Mina as your tour guide! This was the first sightseeing type trip we have taken as a family. My boys are young and I knew it would be too much to try to figure out how to get from place to place AND actually see the sights with them. That's why we hired Mina in the first place BUT I would highly recommend him for any independent traveler at whatever age. He arranged everything from airport pick up and drop off to getting the tickets for all the sights. He also is extremely friendly and very very knowledgeable about all of Egypt's 5000 yrs of history. He was able to help us focus on the most important things.
