“Jerusalem Hostel”
Great location, nice people, big rooms, according to the price its okay, quite basic, but enough for a stay at Jerusalem. The tram is close to the hostel, on Jaffa road no cars. Lots of restaurants and bars nearby.
“Disgrace”
This place is a disgrace. I wonder if there is no control from the ministry of tourism in order to allow hostels/hotels to opperate? Or how long since they have been here?

MoreThis place is a disgrace. I wonder if there is no control from the ministry of tourism in order to allow hostels/hotels to opperate? Or how long since they have been here? Honestly this is the worst place i have stayed in over 100 countries. Why? Firstly and most important it is not clean. In the bathroom the shower drain is covered with hair from previous guests-have no clue since when but obviously my bathrrom was not cleaned before my stay. The entire bathroom is worn down and dirty. The walls are dirty and peeling off. Furniture looks like salvation army giveaways -one item at a time. The carpet seems to be here since 1928 and not cleaned since-worn out and stained. At least it could be cleaned if not changed. But it is disgusting as it is now. I would not stay here again for a million $. And i advise against staying here to anyone !
