We really enjoyed our stay here. Our double rooms were very spacious and clean. The breakfast was really good, authentic Arab breakfast. The staff here are absolutely the best especially Mishleen. They suggested many places to visit and they provided us with a free map of the old city which was pretty useful. The hostel is made up of a huge old house which is beautifully decorated. Setting outside in the morning was very peaceful. I highly recommend this place if you want to stay in the old city and be immersed in the culture.

Falling a little short for an Abraham Hostel!
Rooms were smoke-free, but other guest sat in the court yard smoking late into the night just outside of the main guest room making a lot of noise and a lot of Smoke drifted into the room. $7 to wash and dry a load of clothes at a hostel. Very limited knowledge about tour information. Rooms smelled a little like mold. Hostel was part of the Abraham group of hostels, but knowledge of other member hostels was very limited and some wrong information was given out.

It's the most beautiful and spacious hostel I have ever stayed. Staff were all super nice and the free old city tour was simply amazing. Mind that their reception closes at 22:00.

Nice place with charm
The hostel is housed in a historical building with a lot of charms. Sitting in the common area during the blazingly hot afternoon will give you some room to breath. The free cultural tour offered by them offers some insider information that you wouldn’t find out by yourself. Room is with ac but works out fine at night. Bed is comfy.

Charming place
Stayed in the dorms, very comfortable! Excellent WC/Shower. Excellent breakfast! Excellent wifi. They even remembered my name! And staff handled another guests emergency situation very well! They loose some marks for allowing smoking in the courtyard :-( and changing the time of the tour I pre-booked weeks earlier without alerting me. Just 15 minutes. But I was 5 minutes late instead of 10 minutes early. No real harm done.

The hostel is in an 19th century Islamic-style mansion so is attractive in that regard. Excellent location, right in the heart of the Old City, on a quiet, narrow, car-free street. But there are a few things I didn't like about this hostel. The Lonely Planet guidebook says "anyone with a stamp from Lebanon, Iraqi Kurdistan or Iran in their passport gets the first night in a dorm for free". I was in Lebanon before I came to Israel so I pointed this out when I checked in but the guy on the reception did his best to not let me have it. First he said "it must have been on this same trip". It was. So he said "you only get a free night if you book on our (Fauzi Azar's) website." I tried booking on their website twice but the screen just froze and the booking wouldn't go through so I booked with Wotif. They weren't going to give me this free night so I complained and fortunately the nice female manager let me have it but charged me for my first breakfast, which is supposed to be included in the price. Oh well, that's better than nothing I suppose. Some other negatives:- 1. Painfully uncomfortable mattress on my bed, 2. Tiny toilet & shower cubicles, 3. Very little atmosphere but that's no fault of the hostel. I only met one friendly traveller there, most other people spent most of their time in silence, staring at their smart phones. 4. The dorms open onto common rooms so you can easily hear people talking outside (when they actually do talk). 5. Loud dog nearby barking till 11pm.

Inconvenient and lack of maintenance
I didn't really enjoy my stay and endup left the hostel 1 day earlier. The hostel facilities are old and lack of amenities. The bathroom door cannot be locked. The toilet is very small, I barely can move inside. In terms of location, this hostel located in the middle of the hill. You need to walked up a lots of stairs to get to the hostel.
