Great location in Jerusalem
Very nice and clean room in Jerusalem new city, about a 15 minute walk from Jaffa Gate (the main entrance to the old city.)
The room that I had is similar to a junior suite. There is a living room and a kitchen but the kitchen just has a sink, fridge and microwave -- no stove.
The room was cleaned daily.
There is a coffee shop right in front of a hotel and a mini market right next to it. It is located on one of the main pedestrian shopping streets with lots of different stores.
Across the street there is a club with an outdoor terrace that is used as a dance floor on certain nights. Depending on which way your room is facing, this could be noisy, but my room was facing the back, fortunately.
The one bad thing was that the reception was unmanned at 7:30 PM when I was trying to check-in. I had to make a phone call to get someone to come. Another evening the front door was locked and I did not have the code. Had to make another call to resolve it.

One of the best stay values we've had.
We absolutely loved this place. Everything was perfect. Great location, clean, spacious, cozy bed, friendly staff. We arrived before check-in, left our bags for the day, and when we returned in the evening, bags had been taken to our room for us, which was fantastic. Thank you!

It worth the price
Really good location. Friendly stuff at check-in. However, room is outdated (paint is coming of the walls), marks on the walls, couches in the living room look old and not clean. The biggest disappointment was that there was hair on the sheets and dust near the bad as well as feathers (from pigeons?) on the balcony. I didn't feel comfortable in the room as felt it was not properly clean.

We are very sorry that your stay did not meet your expectations. Our housekeeping staff cleaned the room and replaced all the sheets again after you mentioned that in your opinion they were not clean, and therefore it is a pity that you still write about lack of cleanliness in the room.
You are more than welcome to come again for an improved experience.
Best regards,
Hotel Management

The apartment was HUGE. A big bedroom with full-sized bathroom, tv, and air conditioner; a smaller bedroom with two twin beds and air conditioner; a big living room with tv, air conditioner, a fold-out couch, another chair, a table; a full-sized kitchen with regular refrigerator, one burner, plates, silverware, pots and pans, counter to sit at. A balcony.
Room cleaned every day, including on Friday and Saturday; towels changed. The hotel doesn't have a restaurant so there is no buffet Israeli breakfast but it is centrally located in a fun district with lots of restaurants and stores. I'd return.

This is a very good place to stay
We enjoyed our stay at Shamai Suites very much. Our stay was for four nights. The value was excellent: very comfortable and clean comfortable bedding, nice washroom, kitchenette and sitting area too. We found the staff to be helpful and polite. BTW, you cannot ask for a better location in a very vibrant part of Jerusalem.
I suppose that like any other accommodations, if you look long and hard enough, you’ll find imperfections. This place is no different. But for whatever blemishes there might be, we highly recommend this hotel/suites for your stay in fascinating Jerusalem.

Very good place for visiting Jerusalem
The location is great, not far from the Old City, with a very lively neighbourhood with many restaurants, cafes, shops etc. The rooms are nice and comfortable.
Please note, that outside there are restaurants and a hostel with an external cinema, so it can be loud until late night hours. If you're a light sleeper maybe find another place, but if you sleep easily after a whole day of walking around Jerusalem - this is a great choice.

Location is great but property is outdated
The location of the property is convenient as its close to Jaffa Road, lots of shops and restaurants around. The property is big enough to accommodate 2 people. The shower room needs updating, dirty and needs a thorough cleaning. We decided not to turn the lights on whenever we use the bathroom to avoid seeing the moulds.

Fantastic
We were in contact with the hotel a couple of days before checking in as we needed help arranging a shared taxi to the airport on our departure from Shamai and they couldn’t be more helpful.
We were staying in a nearby hotel which was part of the tour we were on and the move to Shamai was as different as night to day.
Shaman upgraded us to a 2 bedroom suite, with the lovely main bedroom having an en-suite. There were top quality amenities and a fully equipped kitchen. Loved the roomy bathroom and big shower.
Good area for shopping and restaurants.
We left some items behind and Shamai are posting them on for us. Wonderful staff, wonderful service.
Can’t rate them highly enough.

There was no storage space in 2nd bedroom. And only small wardrobe in main bedroom so if 4 people stayed there they would need to live out of their suitcase. In the main bathroom there were no hooks for towels. We were put in a two bedroom suite which was very clean and spacious and I would definitely stay again with the above additions. The staff on reception were very helpful.
On the 2nd night there was water leaking from the ceiling into the bathroom and we were told the water was being turned off and we were NOT to use the water. I called Expedia yesterday (morning of check out) and the person I spoke to was incredibly unsympathetic and offered a voucher for 25%.
The manger/owner of the hotel was a lot more understanding (we checked out early as we couldn’t shower in the room) and advised he’s extending a 50% refund on the 2nd night accommodation by way of an apology for the inconvenience. Please advise receipt and arrange refund asap.

Good and Bad Location
We had a deluxe suite that was large with a good kitchen area. The location was good and bad: good since it was close to the Old City and many restaurants and markets near the Old City, but bad in that it was next to a nightclub and on a pedestrian mall that was noisy.

The building inside not taking care of, need painting.
The entrance little hall is not good decorated like nobody cares.
Very small and old lift
The room was clean, have a microwave, a kettle .
The bathroom is big with everything I needed ,
The day I arrived no body was at the front desk I was very tired and i needed to wait more than 15 min, until a kind a hippy woman arrived, the desk was dirty even she had a roll of toilet paper on it , she was not very nice, didn't care about anything, not a small smile. Next day was different, when I came down was a young man with a uniforme, he was very nice,I ask him about an address and he explained me how to arrive at. In the afternoon was other young woman very kind, she order for me a taxi, She was very nice. I'was happy I din^t see anymore the first lady when I arrived, really not nice person.

This property was brilliantly located and the staff were great.
I rate our room 3-star. It had a grotty bathroom. The bathrooms our friends had were refurbished and ours wasn't. We unwittingly sacrificed the refurbished room for a bathroom with walk-in shower, rather than shower over bath.
The lift in this building was a joke, only fitted 2 or 3 people, or one person with suitcase.
The deck off our room was filthy, and looked out over backs of buildings and you wouldn't have wanted to use it. Opened it occasionally for some fresh air.
The property was redeemed by the helpful staff, and great location.
The photos on the website look better than the actuality.
