Many write that in Egypt, Alenka chocolate is held in high esteem, instead of a tip. Is this so, or have our people decided so, and they are already sick of Alenka?

It's true about chocolate. Local chocolate is of very poor quality, and imported chocolate is very expensive.
As a medium of exchange, you can also use cigarettes and even any candy, not necessarily chocolate. For many years now, we have been specially carrying ordinary barberries with us. And on the plane it helps to pass the time, and it really helps any negotiations with the Egyptians.
Money is, of course, a universal equivalent, but there are things that an ordinary Egyptian in his country cannot buy with money.

The main thing is a good and friendly attitude towards the staff, and what you want to give them a chocolate bar or bucks is a matter of your preference.

Vodka works everywhere. This is not Saudi Arabia (you can't go there), in Egypt, if you're careful, you can... Egypt is a secular state.

Tipping goes to the general cash desk (with the exception of cleaners), and the gifts remain with the addressee. Chocolate here is expensive and tasteless, I always take chocolate, cigarettes, even in unfamiliar hotels, and in my native Makadi Sunrise, I have half a suitcase. Tipping is a separate item of expenditure

House on a hill with no windows. There is a building with a reception window, but they can be settled with a view of the road.
