Everything was perfect. The whole place is cozy and comfortable, with a very relaxing atmosphere. The staff were friendly and helpful, and everything was clean and well-organized. It’s a great place to unwind and enjoy a peaceful stay. I would definitely recommend it and would love to visit again.

Nice rooms and common area, very clean and stylish. Extremely value for money. Host with very good recommendations on what to do. Ideal for visitors with own car to bring food. Highly recommend for a weekend get away from Cairo with friends or family.
We loved our stay at The Roof and will definitely return. Sahra was an amazing host and her recommendations for what to do in Tunis Village were all spot on. The Roof space is great for families or groups. Clean, spacious, and great outdoor space. The shared kitchen was an added bonus.
The roof was very clean, the bedrooms are very comfortable and clean, and the kitchen was clean and well equipped.
The street to the house is incrediblly narrow and access by car in and out is quite difficult. The spiral staircase in the roof has corners that can be quite dangerous if anyone hits their head on their corners. Please add soft protection corner covers
Chambre et salle de bain spacieuses. Décor sympa. Cuisine indépendante équipée avec le minimum utile, four et réfrigérateur. Jolie terrasse. Jardin agréable.
Pas de cafetière, beaucoup de bruit le soir assez tard, une rue passe juste derrière les chambres. La personne qui accueille ne parle pas du tout l’anglais. Il y avait une piscine et comme on la voit sur les photos je pensais qu’elle était à partager mais en fait elle est privée pour un logement, il faut le savoir. On y a été le 1er jour et la propriétaire nous a dit qu’on pouvait en profiter mais pas le lendemain puisqu’il y avait des locataires ensuite.
The place is beautiful all around with gorgeous views from the room or the terrace. The room is quite spacious, beautifully designed and quiet. Owners are helpful and communicative. Highly recommended for a relaxing unwind.
No WiFi. Not a criticism of the place and not their fault as they do not claim to have it. and they do communicate this fact in the user's guide (you receive it after booking is confirmed). But at this day of age it's just assumed to be available. Better know in advance if you need to be connected.
The place was amazing! Perfect location, very nicely furnished, rooms and kitchen extremely clean. The staff was great and very precise in every information given. Desert trip with Osama is very recommended! The terrace view is really charming...I will come back again for sure, me and my friends enjoyed very much.
Amazing place Everything was incredible,Sarah is very friendly and helpful.
The place is clean & all
My account is set on my default family members of 2 adults & 2 kids but this time i was in egypt so came with my 2 siblings & mother. The host charged me extra for 2 persons and she insisted to have the amount in cash before leaving while I didn’t have cash. I understand the rule but what I don’t understand that there was no service whatsoever for the extra charge, no extra bed, no towels, only one paper roll & a hand soap that you barely see, just few teabags so everything was already set for the 2 adults which for me isn’t fair if she is so keen to have the money, she should be keen to provide the value & the service for it. Further during my 2 night stay she didn’t even bother to check on us if we miss anything or guide on how to throw the trash . She only texted when we came to remind for the money and when we left again for the money.
The property is well located at the edge of the Tunis village with an amazing view on the village and the Qaroun lake from the Roof. It is nicely designed, peaceful and quiet. The houses and the Roof blend well with the local environment, paying special attention to sustainability. Rooms have nice outdoor terraces. The fireplace in the Roof proved very useful at night and created a nice atmosphere to sit outside. Our room had a comfortable bed and good quality linens that allowed us very good sleep. The hosts are very friendly and provide useful tips to exploring the area, eating and getting around.
Very charming interior and nice garden/courtyard area. The room was very cozy and comfortable.
There are not very many to no options around the area for groceries, places to eat, or cafes.
The combination between the modern and authentic nature of the place
All was good
The space was relaxing and the room and bedding were very comfy
A wifi would be great
Beautiful and very tastefully decorated. Central location. Very nice owner.
Nothing. I also liked the suroundings/garden. This may change in the future as construction is ongijng on the neighbouring plot.
Excellent facilities, very comfortable and clean and decorated with an eye for detail. It had a fabulous ceiling too! We enjoyed our private balcony as well as the communal rooftop areas. The hosts were friendly and super responsive and provided great information for getting the most of our visit.
Hinges were squeaky (easily remedied by host after we told them) and an outside door banged in the wind all night which disturbed our sleep a little (we couldn't figure out which door was doing it), but was only minor inconvenience.
Very calm and peaceful location Spacious, modern and clean Friendly helpful English speaking host

Beautiful apartment and a very tastefull interior. Slept like babys here. From the soft bed to the waking up at the beautiful terrace. We where all alone here and the owner kindly told us to make use of everything. Everything was fresh and clean. We really enjoyed our time here and enjoyed some well deserved relaxation. The village is amazing and pittoresk, everyone is kind and we had great time.
Bit pricy, but was worth it for us.
The interior design and the space itself is amazing! Spacious, well thought through and done with an eye for detail and love. Communication was easy and all information needed provided.
The place is a bit far from the main area, which is not a problem for adults (5-10min walk) but if with kids it had quite an impact as the walk could extend to 45min to reach the main street, horse stables etc. The roof does not have a pool. The information on booking is a bit misleading: one of the ground floor apartments has a pool and if the apartment is not occupied Sara the host told us we could use it. But since the apartment was occupied we weren't allowed to use it. Which is understandable but wasn't very clear from the beginning.
