It’s a hostel. The area is awesome even though you will need earplugs if you are a light sleeper.

Friendly and Safe, Noisy and Fun
Always someone at the front desk ready to be helpful and answer tourist type questions. Basic breakfast of eggs, toast, tomatoes hummus, and coffee; served on the pleasant rooftop; chance to meet other travelers. Perfect location for visiting the Old City, seeing the modern museums and visiting other areas of Israel using public transportation. Conveniently on the tram line and on a busy shopping street, however that means it is a bit noisy.

The hotel is quite old, many areas would need an update. The Aircon is centralised so there is no way to turn it off but the staff can try to regulate the temperature. The staff was very nice and helpful! Also the location is great!

Convenient to the Light Rail Line. In the heart of West Jerusalem. Convenient to shops. If the hostel wants you to stay in the annex nearby JUST REFUSE. It is filthy, broken down furniture, poor door locks. YUCK. But the main building is good. Kitchen facilities lacking and uncared for my the staff. Breakfast is a joke dry bread and jam.
