Low Quality, discount hotel with misleading photos
This hotel should be advertised as a "basic level discount" hotel. The photos shown on Hotels.com are misleading -- they are very out-of-date and the amenities are exaggerated. We experienced a power outage, a water outage, and 3 days of ant infestation during our stay.
This is what was advertised as designer furniture, a mini-bar, and coffee service.

I was very surprised that this hotel is listed as a Boutique Hotel. There was nothing “Boutique” about it. The staff was mostly not friendly from the moment I arrived. Although I was told in advance I can store my luggage, they don’t have a luggage hold. There were stains on the the blankets (although the sheets & cover were clean) that shone through the covers. When the fuse for the Aircon blew, the receptionist implied I was to stupid to work the AC (still after 4 days), before finding the issue…no apology. Complaining to Expedia did nothing. Only to get confronted by the receptionist as to why I’d call my travel agency as for him, replacing a stained blanket with another stained blanket “solved the matter” and telling Expedia that they don’t even have a storage hold. The cleaning staff consistently complained during the change of linen, insisting he doesn’t see any stains. I felt very uncomfortable throughout the stay, sleeping in that bed, trying to avoid the staff etc. I am very disappointed in that stay and especially in Expedia as I am used to better standards and customer satisfying problem solving. There was, however, no resolution whatsoever. The rooms are also not sound proof. The breakfast was good as it was at a cafe on the next corner, as opposed to the hotel itself. Location of the “hotel” was good.

Only good thing about the hotel is the position as it’s so close to the beach and central to everything. The room was not in good condition especially the bath/shower. No mattress protector so managed to get a 2nd sheet for the bed, some stains on the sheets and pillowcases, wallpaper coming off wall . Back garden in a state and needs a good clean and not advisable to go in there unless you want to be bitten to pieces by insects. Website says tea/coffee facilities in room , there are none, only in the reception area. Had to ask for shower gel as none in the room and only 2 towels, no hand towel or bath mat. Would I stay again, no thanks, place needs refurbishing big time.

Nice for a quick stay
Very nice gentleman helped us check in. However the property is hard to find, though VERY communicative with email before arrival! Probably because it’s Hard to find due to road construction, however past that, it’s a cute little step-up from a hostel style hotel. Good for a night of two before or after a flight. Near enough to the beach. Very tiny rooms though.

Afford yourself as big a room as you can
The gentleman running the place seems knowledgeable about the area and things tourists look for. The individual room was small, a large enough bed put in there could take up the entire square footage of the room. Though the bed itself was comfortable, with multiple soft pillows. Be prepared for the cramped bathroom space. The toilet, the sink, and the shower were right next to one after the other. The shower head was not angled enough to allow movement for the person showering. Elbows and knees are constantly bumping into something.

Stay here only if you must!
This hotel was cheap in every aspect of our stay. It’s a small boutique hotel ran by the owner who has no idea what service Industry is like. The check is process was unpleasant and complicated. He wanted to break my three day stay between two rooms. After I refused to move he found a way to not make me move. They have a coffee machine in the lobby which you are not allowed to use, however there are no signs so you’ll be yelled for making yourself a cup of coffee after a long trip. The hotel was very basic and rundown. The room was tiny and without a window that can be opened. It’s semi clean and had a lot of signs of wear and tear. The bathroom looked like it was done by someone watching DIY videos. DO NOT buy breakfast!!!! It’s a total rip off. They serve it at a different property and it’s basically toast of bread, jam and butter and yogurts full of sugar. Cheap coffee with milk just adds up to the whole picture. We only went there once. The garden is basically a designated for smoking area with plastic plants hanging around it. On the bright side it’s close to the beach and relatively inexpensive.

nobody yelled at you,that is a lie, and somebody with manners would have asked for permission first, before you touch the coffeee machine... regarding the room, i told you 5 minutes later you will stay in the same room {only 5 minutes later}, so why mentioning it ? the hotel is not rundown, this is a lie, we keep and maintain it on daily basis, and it exists only a few years. you say the breakfast is a rip off, we charge 10 nis, which is about 3 dollars, what do you expect for 3 dollars, and there is much more than you mentioned, there is ceriall, grannulla, cvacker, all kind of milk products, 2 kind of cheese, gem, butter, bread, which mean you lied again

La verdad es que está en un lugar inmejorable, las playas a 100m, cerca de todo tipo de servicios, restaurantes, líneas de autobús, parquings, lavanderías…; con un toque retro, diría que incluso demasiado en las habitaciones, la Atencion es buena, aunque al señor mayor”conserje” no le haga gracia alguna hablar otros idiomas que no sean inglés o hebreo, el chico de recepción muy amable, servicial y colaborador, la verdad que si regresara a Tel Aviv- Yafo, volvería; Gracias por todo.
