Perfect Jerusalem Budget Option

I'd definitely recommend this place if you're looking for a budget option in a fantastic area of Jerusalem. It's tucked away from the busy street, clean, comfy, has good breakfast, and has a fun common area with a outdoor deck.

Well, property meet all requirements but breakfast needs to be more variety. The menu it is always the same, for people who stay , let’s say 03 days, this issue could be no problem but for me and my wife, was really not good eat always the same. Some staff in front desk are not very amicable. They just doing the job but be hostess mean much more than that.

A good stay

Nice Hostel, good price and very good location [short walk to the Old City]. We had a room with private bathroom. The room was pretty small, but that was fine, as we just used it to sleep at night. There was a little too much noise at night when light rail works. Breakfast OK. We arrived around noon, before the official check in time. There was no one at the front desk and after waiting for 5 minutes we looked around and found a worker who helped us store the luggage before checking in. One of the guests at the Hostel opened the locked door for us - to be able to get into the Hostel's front desk area. The Hostel has a very nice terrace outside, with plenty of live plants. All on all, a good value, a good stay.
