"Pros: Oasis of peace in the middle of Aswan with Rawja welcoming smile and great traditional Nubian breakfast.The location of the guest house is EASY to find.Any driver will tell you and guide you where Baba Dool is .They will drop you at a small terminal for a boat going to ELEPHANTINE island which costs only 10 EGP and in 5 minutes you are on the other side, then 7 minutes walk between little houses and you are there easily.No problem at all.Its safe it's quiet and comfortable place to rest.Highly recommended ! 5 *****
Cons: Nothing." ~Pawel
"Pros: Located inside elephantine village... which means lugging luggage thru sand and alleys to get to yur room.
Its an island...yes...da ferry is a large motor boat w like 10 pple...for .10 cents. Lol
Yu are on da nile on both sides...yu do havevtrek to other side of island on foot to get to yur place...wear comfortable shoes...
I trained da kids not to beg... give me directions...carry my bags... ill take care of yu..
Sunset... sunrise out yur window overlooking da nile.. a hole in da wall w basic appeal.
Cons: Shower... no pressure or hot water to speak of... and yu literally taking shower over da toilet. Take shower shoes. Bathroom has no mirrors...in fact ...no mirrors at all...use yur imagination. Manager will come over to charge yu for soda yu may drink...while yu there.
Da beds and pillow were from monestery discipline facility....lol
No tv really...not that i need it. In all..good for solo traveler...yur gfriend will slap yur face...plan smartly !!!" ~Mario
