    Perfect location right outside Damascus gate. Staff is friendly. Communal services were absolutely not the best, but they were cleaned pretty often.

    It's about Israeli prices, not maybe this accomodation it self, but the prices are super high for what you receive.

    Location, very close to Damascus gate. Staff was quite nice and recommended good places

    The room was small and dark, enough to rest after a day of sightseeing but not very pleasant to be in to be fair. It could also be cleaner.

    The place is cheap and very well located to visit Jerusalem just by the Damascus Gate. A cheap place to sleep after a day out. Staff was nice and accommodating.

    Kitchen utensils were dirty and the kitchen smelled a bit bad. Also, the refrigerator in the kitchen was not working.

    The location of the hotel was very nice as it was within walking distance of the mosque.

    It could've been cleaner and quieter, but it's not the facility's fault that the guests can't respect other visitors.

    The staff was very friendly. I traveled a lot of places and never met such friendly staff. The beds were very comfortable. There was AC and a closet. Every bed had a socket. There was a terrace with a wonderful view. There's complimentary coffee and tea, a fridge is available. The location was amazing. We really had a great time.

    Construction @ all hours of t night was a problem with my 1st room which had a window overlooking t street & Damascus Gate. After protesting they quickly, with stealth, moved me to a private room @ t back of t building - bravi, brava, bravo! T problem now was that there was no window to t outside world. I settled that issue by leaving my door open a crack overnight, allowing fresh air from hallway windows to permeate my humble abode! Much cheaper than a hotel!

    Location, location, location is everything.

    Veggie markets, Jerusalem East, Damascus gate
    • Leisure trip

    The hostel is located in an old building and does not offer much in terms of cleanliness and facilities. Our room was nice but the bathroom did not have neither a window nor an air vent and the ceiling has now become moldy. While showering, you'll have to hang your clothes on a raw nail rather than a clothing rack or a hanger. I thought the place was funny and charismatic, but if you are looking for the classic urban hostel which is standardised, clean and basically the same in every town, rather head to Jerusalem West.

    The Palm Hostel is located in Jerusalem East right in front of Damascus Gate at the entrance of the old city. You will have to walk through a veggie stand to access the hostel. The area is very lively and you'll find plenty of shops, small Arab markets and some nice restaurants around. The location is ideal to explore the old town and the staff is super welcoming and nice. The room was spacious enough and the beds were comfortable.

    The single room did not look at all like the one when I booked. Forget the table and chair. The room was facing the street/square with currently roadworks being carried out until beyond midnight and megaphone used all day long to advertise minibuses trips to Jaffa and Tel Aviv thanks to a weak window.

    The location just off Damascus gate
