Customer service was above and beyond! They don't have an elevator so they helped with our luggage to the 3rd floor. Conveniently located in downtown and very close to the beach and restaurants. Comfortable room with high ceiling.

Comfortable and convenient
Tel Aviv is a big city and it’s impossible to be centrally located to everything. We were very happy with the location. It was an easy walk to the market and to the beach. Check-in was easy, the room was comfortable and the hotel arranged a taxi to the airport at the end of our stay, which was very helpful Just a quick note, there is no elevator so you might have to walk the stairs to your room Compared to many of the other hotels that we looked at in Tel Aviv I thought the accommodation was very reasonably priced

Nice hotel with promise
Montefiore 16 definitely has some of the looks of a nice hotel with a less pricey tag than some of the other bigger hotels in Tel Aviv. The rooms are all very well decorated and, overall, I had a very nice stay and would stay here again. There are some things, however, that would make the stay better for me (and possibly other travelers). A few things that could be improved are: - While there is a coffee machine and sugar, I could not find any milk in the 2 separate rooms I stayed in - As others have said in reviews, check-in is only available during a certain time which isn't crystal clear when making the booking. While they are happy to give you a key code to enter the building to retrieve your key, it would be nice to have a welcome email before your stay to tell you this information rather than searching through the reviews - There are bottles in the fridge, but there is no bottle opener - Some attention to detail in the room would make it much better - such as cleaning the air vents (they were very dusty), cleaning the rain shower head, and ensuring that floorboards aren't loose or uneven.

I join the group of people who wrote about thin walls. I'm normally a good sleeper, but I was awaken every time when a person in next room came in late and used a key, took a shower, and when somebody was leaving early in the morning. The room does need some repairs on the ceiling. Though fixtures are news.

Just want to say there was no wastepaper basket in the room so I had to throw my rubbish (and I had a lot) on the floor (room 15) which I found distressing. I wouldn't do it in my own home and was not happy to do it there. They lent me an umbrella for 3 days which I appreciated

Great cdntral location right next to the Tel aviv stock exchange, with 10 minutes walk to the beach and 20 minutes walk to Old Jaffa. Can certainly recommend this place and the staff at your service and always very kind. Breakfast is not served in the facility but a voucher is provided, letting you to choose one of the 4 predefined cafe’s serving it.

Small and quiet. Room was small but very well designed. We arrived at 1.30am and had no trouble accessing the hotel and finding our rooms (the office closrs at midnight). The staff were very friendly and helpful. As our flight on the day of departure was late afternoon we checked out and were given access to a courtyard with complimentary tea and coffee.

Great Little Hotel for a Few Nights
This is a great little hotel for a few nights stay at a reasonable price if booked early. Room is small, but adequate for my needs. Offers free breakfast vouchers to 4 nearby restaurants. Internet was fine. Does not have an elevator. Friendly staff. Decent neighborhood in older city center very near Rothschild Street. 15 minute walk to the beach!! Would stay again.

Minimalist hotel
Minimalist hotel perfectly located in downtown Tel Aviv on the edge of artsy Neve Tzedec district. We stayed there for 2 nights at the end of a week long trip to Israel. The room was tiny, with minimal amenities, on the third floor without lift. I haven't seen any staff members except at the time of check in. Location, price and free WiFi compensated for missing services.

The hotel is located very close to the main areas of activity in Tel Aviv, and within walking distance of major streets and tourist areas. The only negative is that several of the rooms are located very close to the hotel's restaurant/bar, and at night, loud customers can make it noisy.

Hotel was close to the beach. The room was tiny.
The room was very small for two people staying 6nights. The most annoying part about this place is the bin collection about 5am. Trust me it’s outside the window, it’s very loud for about 10mins. Every morning it woke us up. The traffic is very loud right outside the window. The wardrobe had two hangers inside it. It was open had no doors on the wardrobe. There was two small drawers under the two hangers in the so called wardrobe. There was no other place to put your clothes. We had to leave our clothes in our cases. Some days we got towels, other days we had to go to the reception to request towels. the floor was never cleaned as in sweapt and moped. The room was very dusty not cleaned in the entire time we were there. The female reception staff, were rude spent their time on their mobile phone even when you spoke to them. They never greeted you in the morning or evening when you approached them. When I complained about the room when we arrived the receptionist said I would have to pay extra to be moved. She also said that “Expedia only paid 385.00 shekels for the room” so l would have to pay more. There is no bar area just a coffee shop at the front which is very small, coffees and sandwiches are very good. The photos of the rooms by Expedia were not any thing like what was offered. Totally dissapointed with this hotel. They said it was a Boutique hotel, sorry just a B&B with a hallway in dark green colouring.
