“I can only recommend the place”
It was very quiet. At night some kids might play outside but when they are done you hear almost nothing. Everyone was super friendly and always tried to help, if wanted.

A great experience of Nubian hospitality. It's a family run business and they make their best to make you feel welcome and meet your requirements. I was picked up at the dock on Elephantine Island and before I was in constant contact with the owner to help me get there. They also took care of the booking of the transport to Abu Simbel and Philae. The room is spacious, comfortable and clean, big beds, the wifi was very good and they prepared for me an excellent breakfast on the last day.

“Fantastic hosts and a very reasonable price.”
Very lovely and hospitable host! They helped us with washing our clothes and getting us to and from the main land. It is lovely to stay in a guest house when visiting Aswan. Would highly recommend.

For the price you get a great value. Also the family cares about you and they make you feel welcome. The island itself is probably the nicest place you can stay in aswan.

Abdallah is a host you can talk to for hours and hours about Egypt, the Nile, the Nubians, and and and... He is keen to make everything happen and get you the trip you want, the experience you are looking for and has good recommendations on where to go and when. We didn't get the chance to taste the food he offers at the place, because we were on a tight schedule, but from what he told us, you have to try, if you can. The hostel itself is very clean, has a very clean shared bathroom, a well equipped kitchen and a balcony to look over the nile. The island is very quiet and everybody is nice and is not trying to rip you off as happens sometimes on the mainland. Make sure to get the official ferry from and to the island. Just look at KFC where the residents are waiting, pay your 5 EGP and wait a bit...
