Reviews

  • Samuel from Spain – 30 April 2024 (10/10)

    I travel intensively and have been to many places around the world. Only this place and a very few got such an effective, carring , fully available, pleasent , welcomming and nice person like Nadav the host is.
    He has made the place to his high measures,
    All the best
    Samuel

    What could be improved: The balcony that was not attached to the room and the balcony itself. But Nadav the host compensates for this by far.

  • Fang from Australia – 3 October 2023 (10/10)

    Everything is smooth, Host Noam is kind, efficient and very approachable. the location is superb, just kew minutes walk to Jaffa Gate, Old town.

  • Muresan from Romania – 20 September 2023 (9/10)

    No breakfast

  • Barak from Israel – 11 June 2023 (10/10)

    The Suite is lovely and brand new.
    Wireless internet, cable TV and many other handy stuff.
    Great location 5 min walk from the israeli center of Jerusalem and just 2 minutes walk to the old city, it was 150 meters away from the light train station which we used quite often. We will sure be back

    The host Noam was attentive and available to all our requests.
    It is highly recommended

  • Zsolt from Hungary – 10 March 2025 (9/10)

    The location is absolutely excellent, just a few minutes' walk to the historic old town. A market is also conveniently nearby. The manager, Noam, is incredibly kind, helpful, and always available through chat applications.

    What could be improved: Unfortunately, there was construction work at a neighboring property during my stay, which was extremely noisy. However, this was not the fault of the apartment.

  • V from Italy – 1 April 2024 (9/10)

    The apartment is located in front of the old city and at the start of one of the main roads of the city center, just a few steps from the tram station. A few meters further, there are also some bus stations. The place is safe, private, very quiet and well maintained. The kitchenette is well provided with many items of cutlery, glasses, dishes, etc. There are the basic electric items for a pleasant stay, such as a hairdryer, coffee machine, kettle, microwave and also a mini electric stove and a refrigerator. As well, items for cleaning are available (sponge, detergent, cloth and paper). The shower is spacious and the water is pleasantly hot. The boiler does not take too long to get warm and it keeps the water for long. At least in March. To enter the apartment there is a system of codes and keys, but it is very manageable. The owner will guide you through with any necessary information the first time! He is always available and friendly. There is a little luggage room in case one wants to place their luggage before the check in or after the checkout, which are flexible hours. You just need to arrange it with the owner.

    What could be improved: The apartment is meant to be for a couple of backpackers. The space in between the bed, the bathroom and the kitchenette is very narrow. Only one person at a time can stay in the bathroom, and there is no space for placing the personal items, except for a toothbrush holder and a little space in between the wall and the toilet. We did not have space to place our luggage comfortably, but there is a structure to hang a couple of clothes and a few shelves, and there is a luggage room, it was just outside our doors. Although the bed is very comfortable, we had trouble sleeping since the bed and the blankets were in "winter mode", while outside the weather is warm. It was very hot. The lock of our apartment was a bit tough when we opened or closed the door, but nothing problematic

  • Suzanne from United Kingdom – 18 October 2023 (7/10)

    The location was perfect as the old city was across the road

    What could be improved: A little cramped but just needed to be organized

  • Suzanne from United Kingdom – 14 October 2023 (7/10)

    It’s location. Was perfect for exploring the old city

    What could be improved: A little on the small side but if staying for just a few days it’s not a problem . Close to everything

  • Linda from Norway – 15 April 2025 (9/10)

    Perfekt lokasjon, rommet hadde alt jeg trengte for å lage mat. Kommer gjerne tilbake hit

    What could be improved: Hadde foretrukket utsikt

  • Kalman from Germany – 20 March 2025 (10/10)
