You are greeted by very friendly staff and get complimentary drinks straight away with a Turkish delight too. A huge shout out to the owner Harun and the housekeeper Fatima. The staff was very helpful when we lost something and found it ASAP. When we were staying there they gave us strawberries with a chocolate gateaux and it was absolutely delicious, (it was on the house). The breakfast was really good with a coffee machine for anyone who likes coffee

“Not too bad”

Got this really cheap on Agoda..$170 for 2 nights including tax. For $85 in one of the most expensive cities in the world, I cannot complain that much as it was my own room with my own bathroom (I will stay in hostels from time to time though).

Got this really cheap on Agoda..$170 for 2 nights including tax. For $85 in one of the most expensive cities in the world, I cannot complain that much as it was my own room with my own bathroom (I will stay in hostels from time to time though). My room was right on DIzengoff which worried me due to the noise but the windows really drowned out any of the street noise and people are out there at all hours. It looked like the hotel tried to look modern but didn't fully do it. You could see mismatched furniture which looked like they were from a garage sale or something. The AC worked but wasn't that great as it clearly was old. I saw reviews mentioning mold. While I didn't see any, honestly I"d imagine nearly all hotels in humidity have it. No real front desk. I had to wait a few minutes when I arrived as the check in person wasn't there. Checking out was even more informal where you just leave your key at the hotel and hope they find it lol. All that being said, the room was clean, had a mini fridge, you were walking distance to restaurants and stores of all budgets, walking distance to the beach, and bus 445 (the airport bus) was right in front. Tip though for the airport....It doesn't leave all that frequently unless it's during normal hours. When my flight arrived it was after 11PM and service was I believe once an hour from the airport so I ended up paying for a taxi which was super expensive especially for 1 person but I didn't want to wait an hour in pure humidity after a 13 hour flight! When I left Israel for a 6 AM flight, I was able to take the 2:40 AM bus. At those really bad hours, it was every 2 hours but I was able to work around it for that time. I'm a female traveling alone and even at those hours there were still plenty of people on the street so I never felt unsafe. Honestly if you are on a budget and can get it cheap, it's fine.
