An absolutely new apartments hotel in the heart of the heart of Jerusalem, with helpful staff and pretty if not wow furniture. Both the apartment and the staff were far beyond expectations. Impeccable cleanliness and comfortable beds.

מיקום מעולה, דירה מרווחת, נקייה ומעוצבת יפה, שירות לקוחות מצויין
What could be improved: היה קשה לתפעל את מוט הרחצה בחדר הרחצה הגדול – רק אחרי הסבר +סירטון משירות הלקוחות הצלחנו. היה נחמד אם היו יותר קפסולות של קפה (היינו קבוצה של 6) וקנקן חלב קטן.Amir from Israel – 31 December 2024 (8/10)
המיקום נהדר, הדירה נחמדה, השרות המהיר והיעיל של הצוות
What could be improved: נושא החניה. נתקענו כחצי שעה בחניה עקב תקשורת לקויה בין חברת הניהול והנהלת החניון. מעבר לכך המחיר יקר.
