Reviews

• Liran from Israel – 21 September 2024 (6/10)

  The beds were exceptionally comfortable, providing a restful night's sleep.
  The apartment's aesthetic was impressive, with a modern design that enhanced the overall experience.
  Situated in a prime location, it offered easy access to key attractions and amenities in Jerusalem.
  
  What could be improved: Unfortunately, the bathroom had an unpleasant odor, which detracted from the overall comfort of the stay.
  There was a noticeable shortage of towels and bedsheets, which was inconvenient.

• Andrzej from Poland – 16 February 2023 (8/10)

  The location is perfect. The apartment is very small but cozy and well organized. The kitchen has everything you need.
  
  What could be improved: The apartment is a bit small for 4 adults. Especially since the bathroom is on the mezzanine. The walls are weak because you can hear your neighbors – but that's a detail.

• Ghislainthau from Spain – 14 December 2022 (7/10)

  The location is quite good, some 10 minutes to New Gate and Damascus gate.
  The apartment is really small but renovated and neatly organized.
  Several lovely cats that great you, if you're a cat lover, it's great.
  The kitchen is equipped to cook a little, which helps keep the food budget reasonable since restaurants are very expensive.
  
  What could be improved: The apartment is really small. In winter it is cold: there's AC/heat however it only heats the upper level (mezzanine) so people on the lower level will be very cold. There are no additional duvet/comforter.
  
  Although the apartment fits 4 people (1 double bed + 1 sofa bed), there aren't the correct number of kitchen accessories: 4 plates but only 3 mugs, 3 glasses and only 2 sets of fork/knife/spoon. Not convenient to share a meal.
  
  The check-in is at 15h, which is quite late (especially since many flights arrive to Israel very early in the morning) and the host isn't flexible about it at all! We had kill time in Jerusalem from 6h30 to 15h until we could check-in. Checkout is at 10h, inflexible also. 5h between check-in and check-out is really exaggerated given the apartment is so small, cleaning should take no more than 2h in the worst case. The host could make an earlier check-in and later check-out to make his guests' stay easier.
  
  The apartment is in a no-through street but you can't park there with your rental car or you'll be fined! It would be good if the host told us but he didn't make any mention of it.

• Ekaterina from United States – 4 December 2022 (7/10)

  Good location
  
  What could be improved: Was really cold on the first floor

• Ivan from Israel – 16 July 2023 (6/10)

  The place is great. Very close to the old city.
  
  What could be improved: The air-conditioning in room 1 was awful. There was not enough power for this volume, also the air-conditioning produced different unexpected sounds, that disturbed my dream at night. Also mold in the bathroom. And a lot of things were almost broken like the shade of the floor light on the doors of the kitchen, or frames with pictures on the wall. I wouldn't recommend it.

• Konstantinos from Greece – 22 April 2025 (8/10)

  The apartment is perfect and the location was near to the old and the new town the owner is very good guy and we didn't have any problems for sure we are coming again 😀

• Alexandra from Russia – 6 February 2025 (8/10)

  I really enjoyed the location and the vibe of the apartment, made me immediately feel at home. Also, I was staying during winter and was happy to find out that the air conditioning was able to heat the upper floor really well.

• Hamoui from Israel – 17 September 2024 (8/10)

  The apartment was tidy and cosy, had a big television, comfortable bed, convenient kitchen and even a microwave. The location was exceptional, right next to the old city, and a walking distance from the city center.
  
  What could be improved: The bathroom was a little small, but still useful.

• Edward from United Kingdom – 12 September 2024 (8/10)

  The location was perfect, very close to the old city, pleasant neighbours. The air-conditioning worked very well.

• Bharat from United States – 3 April 2023 (8/10)

  super central location. Walking distance to old city, grocery shops and public transportation. The apartment has a nice layout and it has everything you need for a short stay. highly recommend. Jeruslaem topography is hilly so be prepared to walk uphills.
  
  What could be improved: none
