"This boutique hotel is a gem, not only for the location, ambience and hospitality but also for the pleasure to experience Uri's restaurant. The best food we have ever had. Try the sampler :) Texas/Calif. "

"People sometimes mention friendly hosts but this time it's really a great host, not just friendly. Just a few examples: 1. Our "agency" which used booking for us didn't bother to send us his phone number, and we arrived late, but Nzar waited for us there. 2. There's a kitchen, and everything there is included in the stay, so we could make a supper for ourselves instead of eating what snacks we took in the lounges for the flight and beyond. 3. We had to leave early in the morning, but he gave us a lift at 7:30 in his car - i mean, 7:30! Getting up this early is a nightmare and he did it for random guests. The place itself is... well, it's typical Israel so don't expect much, but at least the most critical things - bedsheets, towels (unlimited btw!) were clean so that's what matters. Also, the building is old, so 6 meter high ceilings are a plus. Just make sure to get a special pair of slippers for the shower. BTW, no mold (!). As for the balcony... yeah. Well. I could live on it. What a view"

"Staying at the Zidan Sarai, meaning going 800 years back to the middle ages but with updated facilitations. The suit is huge, composed of 2 rooms, kitchen and hammam. The place provides a pleasant oriental atmosphere. It is located in a great spot, 2 minutes from the harbour, 2 minutes from the old market. Highly recommended."
