Looked good online. Came highly recommended. But the we arrived. Front door would not stay latched. Shower head leaked and sprayed water all over bathroom. Used towel to mop it up only to find out they charge extra for replacement towels. Noise all night long. Breakfast was good but they made us wash our dishes. Had to strip our beds and deliver sheets down stairs. Place is quit worn with sloppy maintenance. Absolutely not “very good”!

amazing place to spend the weekend, very good service i slept like a baby because the area is very quiet, there are shops nearby so you can go to eat lunch only 300 meters from the hostel, the crew is very kind and i felt like I'm staying in my family place, not in a hostel, the one that stands above all was Tommy great guy with very high service awareness, i will come again for sure :)

Great budget room for night; walk-able to beach/center (not in summer). Good breakfast included; nice ground; room with kettle and small refrigerator; easy street parking (and limited on site parking). Very clean.Locker is 10 NIS (up to 24 hr).

Personal service and hospitality are top of the pops. Very clean place in walking distance to: Bus station, Airport, food and shopping. The hostel is well-organized and set like an oasis. Surrounded by a lush garden it offers rest and tranquility, even though it's set in close proximity to the city centre.

Easy walk to the bus station and good inexpensive restaurants. Good outdoor lounging space. Only concern was that my bunk room was stuffy and had no windows; not the best place to share with two guys who were sick.
