The hotel offers comfortable rooms with unique built-in furniture tailored for the space, but the overall appearance is a bit dated and drab with old furniture. The service is exceptionally polite and hospitable, going the extra mile to accommodate guests but some staff may be inflexible with early check-out requests. The location is in the Arab part of town, not ideal for access to public transport but within walking distance of the Western Wall and Al Aksa Mosque. The dining experience features a great selection of fresh dishes but limited in terms of variety. The facilities are well-serviced and convenient for guests.

I found the hotel to be a comfortable stay with a normal double bed in the clean and cozy room. The staff was caring and understanding, even letting us freshen up before dinner. The location, while not in the Old City, was pleasant with views across the Old City and the Dome of the Rock. The dining experience was delightful with a variety of delicious options, but the distance from the main sights might be a downside.

The hotel is situated on the Mount of Olives district, offering views across the Old City and the Dome of the Rock. While the rooms have been recently upgraded and are clean and modern, the lack of soundproofing can be bothersome. The service is friendly, with some room for improvement. The location is great for exploring the Old City but may be a bit further from the city center. The dining options are varied, catering more towards European tastes. The facilities are decent but could use some enhancements.
