The staff was extremely helpful serving us an early breakfast before the usually hours. Friday Afternoon Free tour given by Schachar was excellent as he is both interesting and knowledgeable. The room was clean and comfortable and the location was great.

The hostel is on the top floor of Jerusalem’s main post office, which was built from 1934 to 1938 by chief architect of the British Mandate Department of Public Works Austin Harrison and British government architect Percy Winter. The unique structure combines international styles with those typical of Jerusalem. The building was originally the main communications hub of the city.
