It's very basic and the rooms are small but it's clean, the location is fabulous (right near Yaffa Center, walkable to just about everything in Jerusalem) and the second room is a big plus. My first stay over Shabbos, worked out well.

MoreI'm in Israel usually twice a year, and each time I spend several days in the Lev Yerushalayim Hotel. What it lacks in plushness it gains in being functional and smack in the middle of Jerusalem. Step outside, either to the front on King George Street or back to Eliash Street, and there are a plethora of buses which stop there. It's a 10-minute walk to the Shuk (open-air market), which not only is legendarily lively during the day, but transforms into a night scene of restaurants. It's a couple of blocks to Jaffa Road and the light rail, and walkable to the Old City's Jaffa Gate. The Great Synagogue and many other synagogues are a few blocks away. The Ben Yehuda pedestrian mall is across the street. The hotel, as before, can supply you with a physical room key if you don't want to use your electronic key on the Sabbath. The breakfasts, if you include them, aren't fancy but filling with veggies, cereals, cheeses, eggs and more. (An alternative are the many shops around where you can get a breakfast.) The internet is free and works in rooms, and the tv's are flatscreens. Walk a few blocks down King George Street, and right on Keren Kayemet Street a block to #11 to Hamerkaz Laundry if you want your wash done. I pay 50 shekels (about $14) and get same-day laundry service, thus not having to lug two weeks worth of clothing with me to Israel. The rooms have microwaves and minifridges. My second day in Israel was Holocaust Memorial Day. A few minutes before 10 am I stepped outside the Lev Yerushalayim to the very busy street. At the stroke of 10, a siren went off. Hundreds of us stood stock still in respectful silence; all traffic stopped. After two minutes, the sirens fell quiet and we all resumed our normal activity. Only in Israel....

MoreAs a family of five we stayed at this hotel with my parents. It is one of the worst places to stay in Jerusalem, avoid it at all cost! The only good thing about this hotel is its location. The major issue is the payment cheating. The prices on Trip Advisor are untrue: in reality the price there isn't for a room but for a person. When you come to the reception desk the guys there pretend you had booked the room for one and then make you pay an extra fee for each person staying in that room. Be careful with that! Rooms are in a ridiculously bad condition - dirty and smelly, kitchen has no glasses/plates/silverware, nothing at all. We couldn't understand what is the point of it if we can't use it. Food stains were all over the place: on the curtains, sofa, etc. Bed sheets are so old that they tore apart while we slept on them. The furniture is old and creaky. Doors, walls, and windows are so thin that we felt as if we were living on a busy street, noises coming from the outside made it hard for us to fall asleep.A tunnel under the building that you have to go through in order to get into the hotel is full of garbage and urine, homeless people sleep there and it made is feel unsafe. Breakfast is worst out of all we had in Israel: not tasty, nothing is fresh, poor choice opportunities, insanely expensive. For the amount of money you pay for the room per night these conditions are ridiculously bad.
