underwhelming stay

noisy air conditioning unmanaged guests
the laundry service was acceptable.
The air conditioning on the fifth floor created a disturbance, i could hear it from my room. additionally, the hotel did little to manage the noisy guests. Children were running around the pool area past midnight. it was not ideal.

The hotel's location offered really good views. The vista of the Nile river was especially striking. The hotel is conveniently close to major attractions. I found it easy to access the felucca trips. The hotel was well kept, clean, and nicely decorated.
The a/c in my room did not function properly. I called the reception multiple times for assistance. they did not address the issue . I also observed that staff entered my room despite the 'do not disturb' sign. This occurred repeatedly and disrupted my rest.
