Quiet, well appointed hotel ideally located for visiting Jerusalem. Friendly staff, comfortable beds, efficient A/C, good sized room with mini-fridge, black out curtains on the windows, daily servicing of rooms (except on Shabbat), comfortable lobby area and delightful courtyard festooned with flowers. We didn’t take breakfast, but it seemed popular. I had contacted the hotel in advance to confirm we wanted twin bed rather than a double. Speedy, friendly response and they duly obliged. We were assigned Room 301A which was spacious, had a shower separate to the toilet/sink which was ideal for the two of us getting ready in the morning, and great views across Mea She’arim. The hotel is just a few minutes’ walk from the nearest light rail stop, but walking to the Old City only takes 20 mins anyway (plus 20+ mins for photo stops and browsing in shop windows!) It is also close to a very reasonably priced supermarket with one especially friendly cashier, in the same square as the light rail stop, opposite the liquor/wine store on the corner.
