Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is conveniently located in the modern city center, within walking distance to the Main Street with the tram. The rooms are a bit small with almost no space to open the suitcase, and the window is quite small, but there is a balcony offering some fresh air. The dining experience is delightful, featuring real bread instead of packaged options and a delicious Manchego ratatouille. The service is very attentive, including housekeeping and tours/ticket assistance.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel with clean and comfortable rooms exactly as shown in the pictures and friendly staff. The dining experience could use some improvement, but the overall value for money was decent.
The hotel is perfectly located in a quiet area, very close to the Machane Yehuda market. The rooms are just like the pictures, with a small window and a lovely balcony. The service provided was exceptional, including housekeeping and impressive tour assistance. However, the dining experience might not suit everyone's taste with a preference for organic products. The facilities were well-maintained, offering a memorable stay at a reasonable price.
