Pros: This is a homestay located in Al-Lubya Village, but in a different part of the village, not by the riverbank. Because of this, it's very quiet and highly recommended for those who prefer peace and quiet. The homestay was newly renovated not long ago, and its facilities and conditions are considered quite good for the area. You can stay here with confidence. There's also a small square in front of the property, which was very convenient for parking our rental car. For dinner, you can arrange with the host in advance for them to prepare a local Lubyan meal for you. In short, I highly recommend this homestay.

So happy about the choice of this stay
Pros: It has been a great more local experience, the square where it is, the guest house, beautiful, room nice and very clean, we could do also the laundry. The staff was really nice with us and accommodating, the food at the restaurant upstairs cooked completely from scratch at the moment and delicious. We stay only one night but we decided to come back few days since we loved this guesthouse and Assuan

Wonderful stay in a traditional Numbian Village !
Pros: Our stay was truly wonderful. Nubian Village may feel surprising at first, but the guesthouse is beautifully located in a peaceful area, within a charming village full of kind and welcoming people. The children are especially lovely, always greeting you with a cheerful “Hello, welcome.” The guesthouse is spotlessly clean. The rooms are perfect, well-equipped, and feature a balcony as well as a very comfortable bathroom. The rooftop terrace is a real highlight, offering a breathtaking view over the Nile and Aswan. Breakfast was absolutely exceptional — without a doubt the best we had in Egypt. Everything is homemade and simply delicious.
Cons: Unfortunately, and of course this is absolutely not the fault of the guesthouse, it is important to know that Aswan is a city where tourists may encounter many scams, so extra caution is needed. The public ferry to reach Aswan city (crossing the Nile) is very close to the guesthouse, about a 10-minute walk, and normally costs 10 EGP per one-way trip. However, even if you use it daily, some people may try to charge you more or even prevent you from boarding, so be vigilant. The same applies to felucca tours on the Nile. I strongly recommend booking an organized tour, as many people around the city may try to scam or mislead tourists. Being aware of these issues is important, as scams can unfortunately affect the overall experience of staying in the city.

Amazing staff and host, beautiful and magical guest house tucked away in the Nubian village
Pros: Very hospitable and friendly staff They were incredibly helpful
Cons: Bit away from Aswan central which made a few things harder logistically but also meant more quiet and relaxed vibe

Pros: The property is located on the West Bank of Aswan. We found the property extremely well maintained. The hospitality extended by Mr. Habib and Basher was on another level and we were pleased to stay there. They arranged the felucca and camel rides for us.I would highly recommend the guest house for someone looking to book a stay within a reasonable budget.
Cons: Nothing as such.

Pros: Comfortable, clean, on the West bank of the Nile river (public taxi boat is 10 EGP)
Cons: Nothing (maybe just know that there is only 1 drink included in the breakfast, I took a small bottle of water and a coca cola and the breakfast manager complained)

Nice place to stay
Pros: A very nice guesthouse, we had a simple room with a balcony and Aircon that was pretty noisy but cool. We had use of a kettle in the outside space, we brought our own coffee, if you used the coffee there, you had to pay extra. We had a late bus journey on the day we left and were very grateful to be able to stay in the common space after check out time. Breakfast was good, the views were beautiful of the Nile. Comfy bed, good clean accommodation, spacious rooms. Plenty of communal space.
