Friendly hotel with nice features
The front desk staff was very good. Very helpful and always with a pleasant greeting. They gave you details on the hotel amenities as they share with their "cousin" hotel. Convenient to bus stop to airport, that runs every hour.

Quirky clean well priced hotel up a flight or two
This is a quirky little hotel with retro 50s decor, which I adore… it’s only about four blocks from the Gorden Beach, which is my favorite beach so I like the location The price is good in the rooms are comfortable. There are some cons here all of the rooms are upone to three or four flights of stairs. While there is coffee in the lobby… The lady at the front desk said they never have milk that said, how hard would it be to have milk?… Breakfast is not at the site it’s around the corner, and since I was late for a plane, I just went across the street and brought a cappuccino.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
First you get a heavy awful smell of a cheep cleaning product that make you want to puke. Then you find out that the bed is unleavened. One side is low and soft the other is higher and hard.. I decided to say something. The front desk guy had hard time to understand me, luckily there was a vacancy and I got a different room pretty quick. Then I’ve notice the length of the bed. I’m super short. And I reached the of it. Can’t imagine what other people felt like. Strange enough, when I came to complain about the bed the front desk thought I’m complaining about that. Clearly I’m not the first one to notice.. And the small window in a size of a prison cell. The bathroom had mold on the caulking. I can only hope that the towels were actually washed. Cleaning failed. Feel like a cheep hotel that people come to hookup And this my friends, a perfect example on how the joke is on us, the guests. And how those people get Rich. And their kids wear Gucci clothes while we need to settle for bear minimum. Paying hotel prices while getting cheap hostel rooms.

Great find not far from the beach!
Incredibly friendly staff, and very warm welcome! There are only two things I would note: - I was unaware there was no elevator at this property. While it was not necessarily a major inconvenience, I was placed on the top floor and had to carry my luggage up 4 flights of stairs to my room. - The signage outside the property could use some improvements, it is somewhat hidden off the road (especially since the reception is in a separate building from the hotel units. Overall, I’d highly recommend any solo travelers and families alike, especially for a budget friendly and optimal location in Tel Aviv!! The staff was beyond friendly, and extremely receptive to my needs.

This was a great property when it comes to location. You're a 5 minute walk away from Gordon Beach, 45 minute walk to Jaffa. The property was clean and had everything I needed. My only complaint is the walls are fairly thin so if you have people near you that are up late partying you hear it clearly

Hotel is definitely unic in presentation and furnishings. Not my style and I did expect to have such a small roomwith just one small corner to hang your belongings. No shelves and no space to place luggage. But the staff was so kind to make our stay better tgat they offer a much bigger room with more furniture and more convinient. Breakfast was very good. Service is outstanding.

Liked: * Great location. * Unique and interesting design. * I was offered an upgrade from a single room to a double room which was very generous. * Price was fair. Overall I had a good experience, but there are a few things that can be improved: * The hooks in the bathroom were placed very high, I had to climb the toilet in order to hang my towels. * The bathroom floor definitely wasn't washed before I entered the room, I could see big dark stains on the floor. * The bathroom didn't include a toothbrush cup (not even a simple plastic or disposable one).

Nice place, should improve basic things
I liked the vibe of the hotel with retro style. Room is nice also. I had 2 not good incidents: 1. On check in the receptionist refused to give me the room for long time as of payment misunderstanding, but the day after the manager apologize for this and upgrade my room as well as breakfast voucher. 2. In another day there were no hot water one morning. They told there was a problem and it will be back after 1.5 hour... I had to leave for a meeting. Another note: if you offer free donuts and popcorn make sure they fresh and not old. No complaints for the free beer 🍻
