WOMEN BEWARE: The front desk man watches porn, without headphones, right across from the showers and bathroom. The hostel is dirty, cramped, disgusting in every way possible. The entryway permanently smells like sewage. It\'s in a good location, but the old city is quite small (only 1 sq. km): you can find a better alternative. I have stayed in many hostels, and never had a complaint before. Hostels.com should not be encouraging this place.

The owner of the hostel was a rude guy, it will be good for him to work of his personality for becoming more positive, talkative and a bit less greedy.

They should offer proper showers and toilets. It was really very cold inside.

While the price of the hostel seems good, amenities such as internet, a locker, using the washer and dryer are all extra. There is only a small kitchen and no common area so it is hard to meet people which is exacerbated by the fact that there is no alcohol allowed; this made is nearly impossible to meet people. There is also a curfew of 2AM which can get in the way of seeing the local bar scene which can easily go past that time.

Good: Great location. Good kitchen with everything what you need. Clean. Bad: Really small rooms. No parking, you can't go to the hostel by the car.

It was such a terrible experience! a very uncomfortable bed and tiny bathrooms. I have stayed in much better hostels in Jerusalem and in other places around the world for the same or even less money. I am happy that it was just for one night! The only good think was the locker, which of course has an extra fee...
