I agree with previous reviewers that one must come here only after adjusting one’s expectations. I don’t normally stay in these types of accommodations, but wanted to give it a try after seeing the reviews and because of its location. I’m sorry I did, but I may have caught them on an “off” week. Regardless, I won’t be going back.... More

My family stayed here a few days ago and were very happy with our choice for a number of reasons: it absolutely oozes character and history, the Christians who volunteer to work here are warm, friendly and hospitable and it is a very short walk to the sights of the old city. The rooms are simple, but comfortable and it... More

This is a very well located guest house opposite the Citadel and just within the city walls at the Jaffa Gate. You are a 10 minute walk away from all of the major sites, including Western Wall, Temple Mount and Church of the Holy Sepulchre. You can go out in the morning and be within the souks in a matter...

Has an historical feel. Most of the volunteer staff are helpful - others don't seem to care a wit. Quiet, yet right on the edge of the Old city. Directly across from Tower of David and just inside Jaffa Gate. More

I've stayed here several times. I love being in the Old City. This is the easiest hostel to get to and you don't need to lug your baggage into the narrow streets. The prices are very low. The place feels historic and the people (many of whom are volunteers) are friendly and helpful. The courtyard is an oasis from the... More

Excellent position, just inside the Jaffa Gate. My room looked out on to the Citadel. The room rates are very reasonable and include a good breakfast with access to tea and coffee making facilities. The rooms are spartan and not large but are adequate and good for the price. This is run by the Christian Mission to the Jews (CMJ)... More

An oasis of peace and tranquility in a very active and busy Old City. Great coffee"s and solid meals with dedicated staff. My wife and I only ate and visited there almost every day for 4 weeks but did not stay in the rooms so I cannot offer a reveiw on accomodations. Suburb location. It is very difficult to put... More

We found the accommodations perfect for our stay in June 2011. It was a clean and quiet respite after touring the old city. Our room was clean and perfect for 5 weary travelers to rest and regroup for our next days adventures. This is a guesthouse (and not a hotel ) which made it ideal for our very 1st trip... More

Free parking and a garden in the old city? Unbelievable but true! This place is partly run by volunteers and kindhearted employees. Everyone was so helpful and friendly. Located just inside the Jaffa Gate across from the entrance to the Rampart Walls walk and the Tower of David Museum. Easy to find on foot or by taxi - it makes... More

Our friends who live in Galilee area recommended this guesthouse and it was PERFECT! We had two days in Jerusalem, and the location was just right for us. Traveling with our 3 young kids (9, 6 and 3), we had a family room (#8 in Alexander?) available with 3 singles and a bunk bed with a pullout bed under the... More
