Alon Hotel

- hotel is very well located and thats about the only good thing i can think of. - honestly its one of the worst hotel i have been staying at in recent years. I understand accomodation can be expensive in Jerusalem but some basics should be seen everywhere: hygiene. - the room was supposed to be a studio.. its in fact a very small room with an area where you can cook and a small fridge. - the utensils and equipments need to be changed and maintained better. They are basically not cleaned or useble. -the bedromm side ..well it looks like it has not been cleaned in ages.. and the renovation done ( paint and all seem to have been done over dirt) - the beds are comfortable ( we had twin beds ) but bear in mind they are very small (80cm width) - we stayed 7 nights and bedsheets have not been changed once. -towels were very old and we had to ask constantly for them to be changed. - cleaning of the room or bathroom not done once either. - the bathroom is very small and also hasnt been cleaned while we were there and i doubt before we got there. - (i had to clean it myself with the product they leave for us in the room) - the shower is in terrible condition and there is virtually no water pressure ! - there is a heater that is very rusty - the balcony is unuseable as it is very dirty - the hotel is VERY noisy. - bars noise till after 1am and constructions noise from 5.30am - the staff and the " reception".. one of the gentleman was quite decent whilst the other one was rude and so unwelcoming

Michael and Anton , and one more lady at the reception were the best. They made sure everything went well with our 2 day stay in this hotel in downtown jerusalem. Thank you, folks! The hotel doesn't have a lift but Michael and Anton were always always ready to assist me with my baby stroller, of my baby or my 4 year old son. The room was big enough for me and my kids, old but clean. Thd aircon worked well too which was nice coz it was hooooot in jerusalem. I cooked, boiled water just like at home. The location was superb. Around the bend there's an Asian convenience store selling well of course Asian stuff and more but cheaper price compared to the others nearby too. Say mineral water to them is 4 shekels, the others 10! We will return definitely.
