Everything ! The location, the owner, everything in this apartment was great. If you will spent the night in Abu Simbal you definitely should stay in this apartment. 10 min by walk from the temple. The breakfast is included and it will in the nearby hotel Tuya which also a good place to take a drink or to eat while waiting for the night show. But the most important thing that you need to know is the kindness of the owner. He was helping us, before, during and after our stay. Thank you so much

the kitchen is not really usible. Missing a lot of stuff for a longer stay.

Fetching us from airport, having breakfast and bringing us back was a great thing. This was worth the higher price we payed. You can easily go by feed to the monument area. Restaurant is nice with good food. Contact was very good und ownwer nice too.

The location on the map is wrong so we struggled to find it at first then the host came to pick us up and show the way The correct location is near the Bank of Egypt (follow the main street and when you see the bank of egypt turn right just in front of it) There was some water leaking on the bathroom floor

Friendly and responsive host Well-equipped Cute and spacious maisonette with nice decor and privacy

The mattress on the bed was a little lumpy, I could feel the springs through the bedding.

It matched the description well and we were pleased with the details provided like a hair-dryer, tissues, bits of food and plenty of water.

Very well furnished and comfortable apartment. Per our request, we were provided with a stove and cooking utensils. 1 km from the Abu Simbel temple. We had our car and driver for the overnight stay, so it was easy to make the trip to the temple in the evening for the sound and light show (besides the morning visit ). Market with groceries and vegetables was about a 500 meter walk.

Nothing really. Just contact the host prior arriving. The adress on booking.com is not that acurate.

Location, amenities, value for the money and the host. After Luxor and Aswan it was very nice to feel the quiet in Abu Simbel.

Place was very clean and shaban the owner of the apartment was very kind and good hospitality. We was leaving to Cairo early morning around 05:00 but he did packed us breakfast. He is a very good and a honest man. I recommend who ever comes to Abu simbel to take Al Fouad.

Only thing I would say was internet a little slow but enough to see Netflix and send emails. And also nothing near by to do groceries, of course not host fault. And also he recommended places to eat I did in tuya hotel wich is near by and loved the fish you must try it.

Everything Shaaban is an incredible host, he took take of everything transportation from and to airport ( for free), getting tickets, recommended activities, he even get my a tooth brush. And didn't ask for any extra fee. The place also is great anything you need air-conditioned, fridge, stove, wifi, etc. Totally recommend it for your trip. And also when I had to leave early for temple he made a take away breakfast box.

An impeccably clean and cozy apartment within walking distance of both the Abu Simbel temples and the bus station. The responsive host's thoughtful gesture of providing coffee, tea, and snacks added to the comfort of our stay.

The owner Shaaban is a very kind person. He let us drop off our luggage around 11am because our scheduled arrival was at 10:45. But then Egyptair did not only had an 1-hour delay with the flight, but they also left my luggage in Aswan, thus we stayed much longer at the Abu Simbel airport looking for my missing luggage. When we finally arrived at his apartment around 12:00, he greeted us with a smile. The apartment had everything we needed (I did not have my luggage so it was great to find shampoo, soap, shower gell in the bathroom), there were even 2 big bottles of water in the refrigerator. Apart from the good air conditioner, there was also an electrical fan that helped dry out my only clothes overnight so I only wear them again the next day. He treated us, his guests, like friends and tried to offer any help we needed. We were very grateful to be able to stay at his apartment, which is probably the 2nd nearest place to the temples one could stay (the closest is Tuya). It took us around 10-15 minutes to walk to the temples. He also helped us get tickets for the sound and light show, reserve a sunset boat on the Nassar Lake, find a shared bus to go to Aswan... just talk to him when you have any questions. PS Shaaban and a friend of his family talked to Egyptair on my behalf, I think that helped give the airlines company some pressure and resulted in the recovery of my luggage.

Need to add a cook stove (there was only a kettle) He might have forgotten to put towels for shower.

Localization is perfect as you can walk to Abu Simbel Temple. Shaaban is really nice and great us in person for checking and checkout. He let us use bicycle and helped us to go to the market in town, that was really nice.

Everything was perfect. The only point is that the accommodation is not correctly located on Booking although the address is right. Do not hesitate to call the owner when arriving :)

The accomodation is clean and comfortable, greatly located (10min walking from temples). The owner is very welcoming, nice and available, he made everything easy for us, helped us to go back to Aswan. He also owns a restaurant nearby, which is also a nice place.

Drain blockage in shower, bathroom flooded.

Very friendly and helpful owner, nice and new apartment with AC and fan. Comfortable beds. Kitchen is equipped with essential things. Great location in a walking distance to Abu simbel temple and shops. The owner has a hotel with restaurant where you can have meals. He helped us to take a transfer back to Aswan.

The price - 4 times of what it's normally paid in Egypt. Not sure what is the deal in Abu simbel that there are not affordable places to stay overnight, 60€ is too much

The flat is nice
