16 August 2009 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: I did enjoy my stay at Jaffa Gate. It was a great place to get together with people from all over the world, different cultures and religions.The staff was friendly and considerate. Since the dorm, I was supposed to sleep in was painted, I was given a private room for one night without further costs.However, I have to admit that the cleanliness of the bathroom have been an issue for me. They are not in the best shape and should be cleaned more often.Embarrasingly, I have to add that I came home with insects bites around my feet that look like flee bites. If the stem from the beds or sheets of the hostel or not, is not known.

Liked: It was clean, but for $25 per bed, you would expect a towel, soap, and a fan. These items were available, but at extra cost. Pathetic.

Marco Brose

Liked: TOP Locattion right near the Citadel in the Old City. But showers and toilets were very dirty. Beds were OK. NO SAFE OR LOCKERS!! Stuff was very friendly an helpful, and nice people the meet. But though I would recommand an hotel. Costs approx. 10 Shekel more and will be more clean. Personally I wouldn't stay there again.
