David is without a doubt the best hostel host I’ve ever stayed with. He helped us save money on so many things including transportation and the Nile cruise to Luxor. He gave us takeaway food for free for the Abu Simbel Temple trip and personally drove us to the shop to buy some beer and to the ship for the Nile cruise. David’s hostel is definitely the best choice in Aswan.

David Hostel was the best accomodation we had in Egypt. Its not the fanciest place, but its located in a neighbourhood where you can experience the city and get to know the daily life. A perfect place for travellers to share experiences with other people around the world. David was the best host we met in Egypt. Always willing to lend a hand in everything. The other guests shared our opinion. If I travel to Aswan again, its a no doubt.

What a nice place to stay and to meet travelers. You really feel home. Unbeatable price for rooms in Aswan. David, the host is fantastic, always helping and giving good tips.I truly recommend and will come againThank you for everything !

David is the main pilon of this awesome hostel where people meet every day for breakfast and make new connections with each other. Light breakfast is not invluded but it is free of charge - falafel and beans and coffee and tea are free throughout the day. Rooms are modest but they have everything you need. Next to the hostel, there’s a fish restaurant and a pizza/burger one from where you can take away. David is very helpful at every time of the day. He even came with me to fix the car when I had problems with it. It is not for the fancy ones - it is a budget convenient accommodation.

If you are picky, please spend the few extra euros/dollars/pounds elsewhere. But: if you are really travelling on a tight budget, David makes up for every comfort you are missing here! He helps you with everything and always gets you tips and the right (and probably cheapest) prices to visit everything! Definitely made my stay in Aswan! Thanks a lot!

Good and very reasonable rates for stay in Aswan. 15km from airport ,5km from railway station. Owner is English speaking and very good. He can arrange a good tour to Abu simbel.

You get what you pay for. Cheap place, dirty bathroom without warm water, brown water coming out of the tap and mattresses that have had better days. The dorm has a camera, I dont know why, because thats kinda awkward. The good thing about this place is the owner, he is a nice guy, and helps you out. And they do free laundry (pretty quick as well!). But nah I wouldnt recommend the dorm.

Mr David is the bestVery hospitable, generous, kind and helping person. Do not hesitate to ask him anything you want he will help you with everything you need.On my first day he showed me around the place and the room is very clean and air conditioning works perfect.I would greatly recommend Mr Davids to anyone

Great place to stay in Aswan. Clean, roof terrace, hot showers and good facilities & excellent value. David is very helpful and knowledgeable with regards to the local area, helping me even after I left the hostel with information on busses and transportation to Sudan. Highly recommended and I will certainly stay again.

I went there at 2 am almost and he refused to host me as the dorm isnt allowed for Egyptians which isnt mentioned neither on the website nor on booking app

David is an amazing host. The place is a jewel and it felt like home from day one. Low priced, outstanding service and high level of cleanliness - something very rare to find in Egypt.

David, who is the owner, is a very nice & helpful person. He runs it by driving you to book your ticket, or just to enjoy the city.Davids son speaks very well english, and is a potential help for his father in the future. Roof terass is great and will with some help, turn to a new sleeping place with a room. To recomend!

David is the owner of David hostel and he is a great guy.He is very helpful and answer our questions very patiently.He very well speak in English

David and his wife are great hosts! Very attentive and caring. The hostel is perfect for the room price. We could also contract many activites with David with all the security and confidence that you wont find anywhere in Egypt. We totally recommend this place. The hostel is in a quiet place perfect for resting. Also you have lot of food stores and mini markets around.

Clean and comfortable Rooms, the owner of this property David is a very friendly and hospitable person. We had a late night checking he was very kind and accommodating. David also guided us through out our stay at Aswan right from getting to the property till the end of stay, he made sure we had a ride back to the train station. Overall I am very satisfied with the service. I highly recommend this place.

David helped us so much. He really is the most amazing host you can imagine. He is also very up to date about all the new corona travel restrictions and is willing to help you with this. Definitely recommend. Thank you David for all your help!

David the owner of the place and his wife are very decent , helpful and hospitable .They answered all of our questions like all the time with pleasure , he knows the city very well and knows all the ways you can get to your destination .Rooms are clean , bathroom is working fine hot water free WiFi and surely there are alot of local restaurants with very cheap prices , good taste and quality food .

David was a wonderful host, he’s been the most amazing person we came across in our Egypt trip. He made our stay very comfortable, the room was immaculately clean. He was very kind to accommodate our last moment Abu simble trip and booked our tour.

GREAT PLACE TO STAY!!!Davids Hostel is a short 5 minute drive outside Aswan City Center in a very quiet neighborhood. The rooms are comfortable, the beds are comfortable and the fans work perfectly to cool you off after a long day in the heat!David is one of the best hosts weve met during our year long journey! He is very interested in learning about other cultures and bringing the world inside his hostel and also doing everything possible to help travelers along their way.If you are looking for a place to stay we highly recommend this hostel!!

Reasonable price & organise tours & caring staffMainly for travellers, backpackers and travel on budgetWe dont have 5 stars pleaseBut we have 5 hearts to our guests❤️ Free wifi💓 Free breakfast❤️Free laundry💓Tea and coffee all the day (garden)💗 Free schedule your time and sending locations and answering all your questions

Very nice hostel in the basement of an apartment. David and his wife are the most friendly and helpful people! Theres a tiny kitchen you can use, but its only suitable to prepare small and simple dishes.

Thanks David, you made my short stay very pleasant. Place quiet, restaurants and shops nearby. David will be willing to help you, ask him whatever you need!

David had arranged our lodging, breakfast and conveyance to Abu Simbel along with all internal movement across the city in his car for $25. This was a great deal considering the distance to Abu Simbel from Aswan. David as a person is really nice and makes it a point to personally help all the travelers he interacts with. Please do check out his hostel at booking.com.

I booked one night at David’s Hostel and ended up staying for 4 as I waited for the ferry into Sudan. The hostel is the downstairs of David’s family home and he immediately welcomes you into his family. During my stay, David arranged transport to Abu Simbel temple, a trip to swim in the Nile and visit the Nubian village, and would shuttle me to the main rail station daily. David took interest in all of his guests while I was there and was keen to learn about their experiences in Egypt and abroad. David also offered airport transit, although I did not use he service. I gave 4 stars as the nights could be warm with no ac in the rooms but other than that it was an enjoyable stay! Cheers David!

Great accomodation if you are searching to feel welcome and at home! David is very kind and he will help you with everything you need.

Nice small Hostel outside of the city in an authentic neighbourhood. Youll find small shops and restaurants around. Busstop is also close by. Rooms were clean. The owner is attentive and helps you with any questions.

Cheap prices and David was so helpful and friendly

There are dormstyle rooms (50) and individual rooms (200). Bikes can be locked up in the courtyard. The hostel is not in central Aswan but itis really quiet and chill. Shops and restaurants abundant.

Cheap hotel, helpful staff! Conditions very simple,and the owner leaves his own bird hungry. Hot water very slow, and only one bathroom for 12 guest,s.😮. Rooms is very small, and old condition.

Great place, not expensive and david and his wife are genuinely very friendly and helpful

It is the best hostel you can haveReally good in everythingGod bless the staff there ♥️♥️

Very nice

David is absolutely fantastic. he goes above and beyond for you and i would 10/10 recommend his hostel to anyone!

Best Hostel in Aswan!

Contact him if you really need cheapest tour prices to Abu Simbel temples and Nile River cruises.

The best place in Aswan to sleep. The owner is more then kind and helps you out with every problem. Also the community there is lovely.

Brilliant host but the hotel self is a letdown. Poorly maintained and needs a LOT of maintenance.

This is the best place I have ever been to in Aswan, David is a true genuine Egyptian with kind heart and amazing hospitality

Clean, quiet and safe

Very good for those wanting a cheap but safe place to stay. Amenities are basic but adequate

Very cheap and helpfull. A bit far from downtown. Excellent choice

Fantastic place to stay. Very nice for Backpackers

Very good man and helpful clean beds

Amazing place for Backpaker

Good hotiel😍

Peaceful reception directly with the owner, Mr. DAVID, a very kind and helpful person. The hostel is in a quiet neighborhood 20 walking to the Nubian Museum and the ferry boat pier to Elephantine Island.. Simple and delicious breakfast. Good cost-benefit ratio. I recommend!!

I made a reservation, and because the train was late, and an hour and a half before I arrived in the city, he canceled the reservation, and the reason is that the door closes at 11 pmClosing or opening times should have been clarified before bookingBad experience

I think it is a good hostel, and David is an excellent and friendly host, always ready to help and give advice about Aswan

David is one of the very respectable people, the hostel is very nice and hospitable, and it is close to the city, there are buses, and the price of the hostel is very cheap for the respectful service it provides. Thank you very much for hosting, David.

The place is very beautiful, hospitable, comfortable and close to everything in Aswan ❤️ And of course, by the engineer David, the owner of the place and his wife are people of the highest morals and sophistication in dealing 😍 their taste is sufficient and their constant reassurance ❤️❤️ Seriously a very sweet and real experience Beautiful people and the place is beautiful, clean and tidy 💜💜

David Hostel is Aswans best place, a clean place and with good energies. It was very well received by David who is a very special, attentive person and always willing to help you at any time.He really loves what he does, and is very careful with his guests! Its really worth staying in this place, a wonderful reception. If you are going to Aswan this is the best place.🇧🇷 David hostel is the best place in Aswan, a clean place with good energy.

I originally booked three nights with David, but due to a change in my plans I only wanted to stay for two nights - no problem for David! In general David always proved to be very helpful (without, like many Egyptians, reaching out for tips) and perfectly rounded off my stay in Aswan with his hospitality and good tips. :)

The owner and the couple are very kind and fluent in EnglishHe gave me bread for breakfast for the Abu Simbel tour early next morning.Since it is quite far from the center of Aswan,There are few places to eat and shops around, so its a little inconvenientWhite Taku is running, but Tuk Tuk is hard to catchWe also handle various toursThe rooms are clean and tidyHowever, the computers that could not be used in the single room were full of dust ...The shared bathroom has a shower curtain so the floor is not floodedThere is a hot shower and a washing machine (charged)However, if too much hot water is used in the bathroom, it will take time for the next person to use the hot water.The shared living room is easy to spendThe difficulty is that it is difficult to catch the radio waves of WiFi and SIM

Hostel As a cheap backpacker in expensive Aswan, very good hostel. The owner, David, gives all kinds of information for the backpacker, avoids a little bit of grief, and helps avoid fraud in negotiations with all sorts of annoying tour guides. The street is a bit flawed in the city, but if you are walking in anyway, this so-called heaven, which harms your health, it is highly recommendable.

Very friendly he and his family. I book a tour without asking and at night the dormitories are very noisy using an electric cutting machine at 1040 p.m. and moving furniture at 11 p.m. I get up and ask if you can stop by 11pm. Very kind di in itself but still with its noise. Defenitivamente is the cheapest place has no windows is in a very small basement and far from the city

Excellent reception. A little out of the way but easy to access by collective taxi for 2 pounds. The owner will do everything to help you.

The boss is super good!Although the location of the equipment is desolate, I really like it here.Very unexpected, there is still breakfast, CP is great.

High prices and poor service

Everything except wifi is great, great and like a family care David, breakfast will be ready to take the road if you go out early, very warm bed and breakfast

Very good in terms of accommodation for the price and close to everything in Aswan

Its okay except for something far from downtown. Its just in the basement of the residential area. David was kind too.

Normal hostel. A bit far from the center, but you can get on mini-buses.

Cheap and close to Aswan Corniche

Very good

Lovely

Thanks David for your great heart, it was a pleasure and a luck to stay in your hostel, I hope to return!

Lines will be. Single person 12

The owner was kind and there was no inconvenience.

Average and there is a better price close to these prices

Generally reasonable for a person alone

It is a basement without ventilation.

Ghali is small compared to a number of places

Convenient place to stay for one night

Good

The service is very sweet
