The hotel is perfectly located in the very city center of the Old Town of Jerusalem, with shared bathrooms and windows without daylight. The service was friendly and efficient, but it felt a bit lacking in amenities for the price. The traditional shabu-shabu dining was a unique experience. The facilities were basic but clean.

The hotel is perfectly located in the heart of the Old Town of Jerusalem, offering convenient access to all important places. The rooms, with 6 beds in all, shared bathroom, on the mattresses, lack daylight windows, providing a decent stay with opportunities for improvement. The service is satisfactory with essential housekeeping and commercial services available. The dining experience, serving typical Sicilian products, was included and satisfactory. The overall value for money is fair, considering the central location and included dining.
