    • Classic Quadruple Room
    • Stayed 7 nights

    The room could do with deep cleaning often as we did find ants in room, which the staff did help with to try cleaning as soon as we informed them.

    The staff were excellent and always willing to help and listen and serve you with a smile; giving us tea and sweets everyday in the evening after the night prayer. The shower is very good and the room was a good size and had a comfortable bed. The location is far from Aqsa Masjid, the walk is steep in places and takes up to 15 minutes to Lions Gate, so keep this in mind if you travel for Aqsa Masjid. There is a bus service available close to the hotel, 5.5 shekels per person, which takes you to Lions Gate and further. There is a nice view from the 6th floor of the hotel and the breakfast/suhoor was a standard Middle East breakfast.

    A few improvements on refurbishing (aware these come at cost so support would be nice to help )

    Fantastic location and amazing views just took our breath away on first arrival ! All of Jerusalem major sites in one glance !! The most warmest of welcomes was given to us by the family who run hotel .We felt very special and nothing seemed any trouble . Very easy to find due to large signage on hotel front and Sat nav was exact as we arrived by rental car and had secure parking facilities . We felt the family run hotel had a lovely warm feel which could be improved with help from increased business .

    It was little bit noisy at night by the hotel. Boys on a bikes, spoke loudly. Also, mask isn’t far so I heard a loud prayer at 4:00 in the morning. My husband slept very tight and heard nothing . This hotel is little bit old. It needs remodelling. The carpet was dirty with spots on it.

    Good location. Beautiful view from hotel’s room window at the old city . Reception was very polite and friendly. We didn’t have a kettle and a hair dryer in our room. We asked the reception, they brought us everything the same day. Breakfast was provided. Also we could eat at evening too.

    The hotel is located next to a mosque, so we were woken at 4am by Ezam. The breakfast was not very tasty, the cutlery and dishes at breakfast were dirty.

    I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. The hotel is clean, the rooms are neat and tidy. It's not a modern hotel, more of a granny style, but there is everything you need. The staff were very friendly. The location is convenient, 15 minutes on foot to the old town.

    Rooms are outdated but completely fine if the purpose of your stay is to spend time in the city rather than the hotel.

    Slightly out of the city but a 10 min walk to lions gate. The staff were so accommodating and the breakfast panoramic view was wonderful.

    It was a good place to stay but wish I had chosen a place along the tram line.

    I realized that a hotel along the tram line would have been more convenient. There were no restaurants near by at all but a fruit and veggie shop at the end of the road and a convenience shop across the street.

    The hotel and staff are good. But it is a 20 minute up and down hill hot walk to the Old City but past the Garden of Gethsemane which is so peaceful. The breakfast is fine and the view from my room was marvellous. The staff was very helpful.

    Argh. Mixed feelings.

    • Classic Quadruple Room

    I booked a room for 4 (3 adults and 1 kid), the classic quadruble room. When checking in I had to add 300 NIS because my younger son is 16 years old. I was told that in the booking it shows my child is age 0 so they didn't charge. It was my 4th stop in Israel and I did the same for booking 3 adults and 1 kid age 16 so I didn't know what happened but after a short discussion I paid anyways, they said we needed to wait because they had to move a bed to the room for the forth person. I said why, it is a quadruble room isn't it?! The room is super congested and we couldn't walk between the beds, not to mention to find place for opening the luggage. The grout of bathroom is moldy - all black and the shower head holder was broken. There is no ventilation in the room. For the included breakfast, the staff is nice and diligent but his smoked 15 feet behind us at the couch, even there's a sign at the reception that no smoking is allowed in the whole building. The breakfast was the same 3 nights we stayed there, and some cold cuts tasted bad (pretty sure they had turned bad) and the butter were melted. The fried eggs were soaked in oil. I did not dare to eat the cheese and cold cut after a bite because they were not fresh. And I had a feeling to puke after eating some tuna fish (weird taste also). The place is like a vintage. This is the first time I visited Jerusalem so I didn't know what to expect. Passing the narrow streets before reaching the "hotel" I thought maybe it is like a developing place? And for the parking part one has to go ask someone to open the gate everytime you go out or return. The street is super narrow(1 car's width but not a one-way street) but there is so much traffic. The carpet may not have cleaned for decades.

    The staff is nice and easy going. They do try to accommodate our needs. The senior man who helped with the luggage is very friendly. After the very unpleasant first night I found my booking details and early next day I said I booked the quadruble room and the picture on booking.com. it should be much bigger. The staff (different from the check in one) gave us another room which has a mountain view. That is the true quadruble room! Thank God. If we had to stay in the tiny room it would be miserable and our family would have a very bad memory of Jerusalem. The room is clean and bright. AC is good (except there was outage 2 nights at around 3 or 4 am - on purpose? I sweated to awake) Also the breakfast area on the top floor is excellent and marvellous. The staff is diligent and is attentive to the availability of food. The fresh tomatoes, cucumber, watermelon and bread are good. Price is affordable and it is good if one can lower the expectations.....but coming from North America it is hard! The facility/building can be inferior to the worst motel in Canada. Yet, dye to the dry hot climate there is no pest or bugs so at least I did not need to worry about that. Only flies in the breakfast area :p

    The room was much worse than on booking fotos. Old equipment, dirty carpet and cigaret smoke from air-conditioning. The room was realy small for 4 beds. The hotel is in the Muslim area next to minaret so we could not sleep because of early morning prayers. The bathroom was half destroyed. We had to ask for towels and cups.

    The location of the hotel is very close to everything. It is in the historical part of Jerusalem near Getsemane garden and near the wall and gate. They serve nice breakfast on the top floor with excellent view of whole old town. They have parking places.
