Morei've resided in the golden gate hostel/inn at least 5 times over the past decade. it feels like home. the staff, especially sinaan and lutfi, are helpful and welcoming. i prefer the dorm because of its spaciousness and cost. i use the kitchen but miss the breakfasts which the hostel once offered. the location is ideal, 10 minutes from the damascus gate. aside from the excellence of the hostel (and its history as a khan or inn, dating from the 1400s, the mamluk period), the old city has within reach most anything one could hope for, including a unique mix of people, jewish israelis and palestinians obviously, coexisting, but also people from all over the world.
Less“Good for Old City”
This place has room options within Old City. It was very dirty though. We were here a week, and found it difficult because of the mildew and dust and dirt. The walls are very thin. We could here others brushing their teeth and whispering. There is WiFi in the lobby, but...
MoreThis place has room options within Old City. It was very dirty though. We were here a week, and found it difficult because of the mildew and dust and dirt. The walls are very thin. We could here others brushing their teeth and whispering. There is WiFi in the lobby, but only worked occasionally. This is probably common throughout. It is in a good location just inside the Damascus Gate.
