Pros:
1. location is good, 5-10min walk to the museum, square and other downtown restaurants.
2. Breakfast is acceptable
Cons:
1. Amenity and equipment: very old. Water heater in the bathroom is very bad - the first people can take shower with hot water, but the second person cannot, the water suddenly getting cold.
You have to wait at least 1 hr in between.
2. Environment in the hostel: unhealthy. The elevator in the hostel is doing painting, with extremely strong smell of paint. The toxic smell last all the three days during my stay. Very unhealthy.
3. Service: average. You need to ask for what you need, for example, hair dryer, towel, shower gel, shampoo. If you don’t ask, the staff will not provide.

The location is convenient, just a few minutes walk from the museum, but the air conditioner is too old and the water heater can only take a shower for one person before there is no hot water.

The environment is comfortable and the staff are friendly.
The only drawback is that the electric water heater is used for bathing, so hot water is limited and you need to wait.

I'm Japanese. It's my first time in Egypt.
It was clean, there were no insects, and it was a very good hotel for the price.
The people at the hotel are also very kind, so I highly recommend it.
It was a little confusing because you can't get to the hotel lobby unless you take the elevator to the top floor.
Baths and toilets are shared.

Great place to experience Egyptian hospitality
It was really nice staying at Champollion Hostel. The family(it seems they were a family) who runs the business was extremely kind, friendly and helpful.
It was located at the very centre of the city - I could walk around the central area for shopping and eating out. And i felt super safe as there was police right in front of the hostel as well as around the city centre.
The room was clean with basic furniture - a bed, a clothes rack, a bedside table and a private bathroom.
I could also experience a 150 year old lift - a super adorable kitten greeted me when I got to the ground floor almost every morning.
I would recommend Champollion Hostel to those who like warm, welcoming and friendly atmosphere and want to stay at the very heart of the city.

The hostel opened a few years ago, so it was very clean, and the staff were all very nice and helpful, so we had a wonderful time there. Our children loved the common space and spent a lot of time there, feeling at home. Although my flight back home was at night, the staff helped us even after we checked out. Highly recommended for your stay in Cairo!

Hotel is located at 7th floor, lift only reached level 6.
Need to bring up/down luggage.
The staffs are very friendly and helpful.
The breakfast is simple and yummy.
The hotel is just blocks away from the crowded downtown Cairo.
