Downsides

Before you go

Said it’s free 9 days ago. It’s been more than 7 days since the last confirmation, so it may be taken. Call first, and don’t go until they confirm it.

Ask on the phone before the trip

  1. Is the place still free? When can I see it?
  2. Is the rent EGP 2,750, as in the listing? What does it include?
  3. Is the deposit EGP 2,750? When does it come back?
  4. Who will meet me: the owner? Will I see the contract that day?
  5. Could you send me a video of the room on WhatsApp today?

If anyone asks for money to “hold” the viewing, don’t go and don’t pay. Report it

The area

© OpenStreetMap

You get the exact address from the advertiser. The map shows the area only.

Next to Demerdash Hospital and the Faculty of Medicine. Ramses St is loud, but it is next door if you study medicine.

Good

  • For medicine, faculty and hospital are steps away
  • Demerdash station (Line 1) is right in the middle

Watch out

  • A longer walk to the main campus
  • Traffic on Ramses St and around the hospital
