Cheap, good hostel, although the staff was a little bit unfriendly to the girls, who were travelling with me.

The dorm meant that I was practically forced to meet people which was good. There are kitchen facilities though they are limited. The manager is friendly and chatty. The location is brilliant.

Central and cheaper than most hostels but cramped conditions to achieve a lower price.

The hostel is in a very good location to visit the old city, especialy the Christian Qarter. I was there for the Ortodox Easter, and the location of the hostel was the best comparing with other accomodation facilities in the area.

Awesome location right near Jaffa gate. Very friendly (slightly too flirty) staff. Felt very safe there. The staff took care of me for one night when I was really sick (traveller's illness), which I really appreciated. Kitchen is small, but useable. Loved the free coffee and tea. Satelitte TV which is nice when you're ill and can't move. Clean sheets, small showers, but the bathroom was cleaned daily and very clean!
