Shabat means accessing the location for the first time on a Saturday evening is limited. I had no way of contacting the receptionist. This is their culture though, so expect it and accept it.

Air conditioning was exceptional. Room was clean. Very comfortable. Receptionist was very friendly.

mould on the matress and curtains and the smell of damp. the receptionist only worked from 11am until 8pm when we asked for another room he argued with us and then walk out and wouldnt talk to us.didnt dare lock the outside door because he wouldnt give us the code so if the door was locked we would be outside all night.one women did get locked out her room but there was no one at reception to help her and no one answered the phone no we rang.also we was in the basement with bars on the window and no smoke alarm

nothing.the hotel needs closing down yep its that bad.booking.com should do the right thing and remove this hotel from their list.we talked to a few locals and they knew about its bad reputation. i gave it a score of 1 only because the rating didnt go any lower

First thing first, this is not a hotel, it's an apartment in an old apartment building that was split into small rooms. As others have said, there is nobody at reception to talk to. There was a water shutoff overnight that was not communicated to guests, and there is no hot water in the shower. While the room was clean, those things are deal-breakers. Even for the frugal traveller, this comes across like a scam.

Great location, a short walk to the beach.

READ THIS BEFORE BOOKING! Manager was very rude and the place was very dirty! To summarise our story, the manager is extremely arrogant and unhelpful. We found people sleeping in our room on arrival and the manager told us to go sleep in their room, despite it being dirty! There were roaches everywhere and the place looked like it hadn't been cleaned in ages! I attached some pictures of the place where you can literally see dead roaches in the corridor! I also attached a picture of the room that the manager told us to go sleep in after other people had just slept in the same bed. One of them was still literally in the room trying to pack up her stuff while were there. He also was very uncooperative and didn't even refund us for this first night that we didn't use and hung up on us when trying to ask for another room. Rooms were all very dirty, no one is hardly ever at the reception and the manager never shows up either. Other than the location, I can't think about anything nice to say. Book your stay anywhere else but do not spend a penny at this hotel because it is disastrous!

The location

There wasn't anyone in the reception to speak with. The room smelled bad, there was humidity, and the bathroom was filthy. We had a reservation for another night. However, we decided to cancel it and find another place.

the room was not the room that was on booking, it was a smaller room, very dirty, smell of sewage, there was a dead cockroach in the bathroom cabinet, the balcony was all broken and full of insects. the guy came and put us outside the door, gave us the key and got away quickly, no where to be seen since then. we went away from there for one night out of the three nights we paid for, and when we came back someone else already got our room, we left things in the room and in the fridge and it wasn’t there anymore.

Its absolutely the worst place we have ever stayed ( you can't even call it a hotel) . We arrived before midnight, we were left with no key to our room , reception was closed. Eventually when we got to the room ,there were cockroaches, bed sheets were not changed, towels were not changed, we had used by previous guests towels, there was not a single toilet paper roll, blocked sink, window wouldn't close. We would have not stayed there and looked for a different hotel but we arrived very late and it was too late to look for alternative and we had to be up at around 5 am. We anyway couldn't sleep there as thinking constantly about these cockroaches.. We emailed Idelson place and left a complaint but no response. We haven't read reviews before booking this place but now we understand what this place is about. We think it's absolutely disgusting and disgraceful that booking.com still keeps this place in their listings of hotels after so many bad reviews., Even if booking.com wrote to me saying that they will consider terminating cooperation with Idelson. Booking.com has also promised us a compensation, but all that we have received was equivalent of 12£ and ' promise ' to 'make it up to us' , tried to contact them , still nothing... So we are considering to never use booking.com again.

Hello. I'm Larysa. I booked a hotel for one night on May 11 - May 12, indicated that payment would be made upon check-in, indicated all my data. at Buckingham the price was indicated in Canadian dollars 126.38 CAD. but as soon as I was at the door of the hotel, 154.02 CAD was illegally deducted from my card. when I asked at the reception I was told that this price is at the shekel rate. Price at the shekel rate ILS=0, 3665 this is 344.85 shekels *0.3665=126.38CAD. I presented all the documents. I am not a resident of Israel. On what basis was 154.02 CAD withdrawn from my card??? it's just a scam and arbitrariness. Because I wanted to pay on arrival. Please understand. Refund the price difference.

Everythin! Water was dripping from the top of the house on customer 's head. There were coccroch in the bedroom. We couldn't sleep. We have to put all our luggage on top of the bed, to avoid cocroch getting nto them. It was a terrible night.

I didn't like anything about it. It was horrible

Some weird slit above mirror in the bathroom, partially stuffed with paper towels, with a view of hotel entrance and nearby street. Could be useful for a spy or a vigilante? No fresh towels or any sight of room service during 6 day stay.

Nice inexpensive hotel in the center of the city! Everything worked fine and was almost new and almost clean. The main thing was an ability to book without credit card and pay with cash.

The bedding did not fit the bed. The bathroom air vent was clogged and caused me allergies. There is a huge cabinet in the room which we did not use, it is honestly taking up space.

Location and price were very good. It was close to restaurants and supermarkets. The air conditioner worked really well for cooling the room down.

DO NOT arrive early! You will be left there stranded as there is no reception on hand. I was left outside for 5 cold long hours together with another couple.

perfectly fine. clean and the bed is really one of the best I’ve ever slept in.

Everything was great. However, there's no breakfast or other food option. But there are grocery stores nearby. Still it would be good if there was a vending machine in the hotel for snacks and drinks in addition to the tea and coffee they provide.

I have stayed several times at this hotel. I booked a single room but the reception guy kindly upgraded me and gave me a lovely double room. In the past as well I occasionally got an upgrade. Location is very central, fridge in room. There is coffee and tea available at the main entrance. And a terrasse.

I liked it first, its location and value for the price compared to the other, in addition to cleanliness, good treatment, chain and assistance. Google luck for them
