Cuando River

I don’t know who is giving this property 10/10 but don’t believe the good ratings. One of the worst hotels I’ve ever stayed in. There were big clumps of hair (and dirt) on the floor (obviously the floor wasn’t swept), no top sheet (just a small coverlet with cigarette burn holes on it) and dirty comforter made for winter weather. In CAIRO. The bathroom was filthy, toilet seat didn’t fit the bowl, toilet wobbled like it was not attached to the floor properly, and the sink sprayed water all over the place. I don’t take a shower because I would’ve needed a shower to clean myself after going in there. The room also smelled like mold & sewage. The common area itself was dirty and rundown. I slept in my clothes. Or, at least tried to but the other guests were so loud that i finally left at 2am and took an early overnight bus out of town instead. Even the bargain price i paid was too much. That said, the man who checked me in was very nice but that is the only pro alongside a laundry list of cons.

We had to stay a night here as our original hotel wouldn't allow an early check in so we found this last minute. For the price you get what you pay for. AC didn't work so we had to keep balcony door open at night. It was walkable to shops and restaurants open late at night so that was good. Area seemed like heavily local and not touristy. The breakfast in the morning was good given the price.
