    I was staying in this facility before and was not certain how to rate since it has really good and not so pleasant sides. The Spot from the location and the lobby looks like a cool and easy going place near TA habour and the sea. It was nice, maybe a bit too loud music. It is specious, has billard, terasse and a reading room with several books. There is a bar for drinks and snacks. Beds have curtains, however in some cases not covering the bed completely. The beds are completely prepared and waiting for guests to arrive, clean and comfortable. The dorm itself is problematic. First of all, the knoking sound coming from the wall, where the sink is - either from pipelines or from an air conditioner can keep you awake at night. Second, the room is not clean, with old dirt on walls and floor, pieces or dirt near walls, with garbage in the shower. No soap in the shower, sink, toilets or anywhere in the room. Towels cost 15 nis. No garbage bin found, only a small one in the toilet (12 people in the room). No free tea or coffee, like in some hostels, but sold at the bar. The kitchen is not well equipped. Not even cups present. I was told to bring my own if I want to have a drink. Last time I wrote about problems with checking in and out, since no receptionist was present for a long time. This time the receptionist by the check-in around 20:00 was both welcoming and professional. But the check-out at 10:45 was problematic again, with no one present for 13min. And one needs to be sure the check-out goes well since the hostel is taking 300 nis deposit from your credit card, which one gets back if no demage is caused during the next 7 days. Also something to be aware off.

    We went to play pool , but it wasn’t the best experience because some of the parts of the table and cue were broken. 2 of 3 sockets didn’t work.

    Everything was good as expected. Clean room, almost everything works.

    good option if you're on a budget but still want to have your own bathroom

    as mentioned hte room is very basic, somewhat scruffy, hardly a place to hang you towel clothes hangers bent and greasy (!). not entirely clean.

    for the average prices in tel aviv, this place offers a very reasonably priced option. the downside is that the room is very small and simple. location is superb, with the harbour, beaches, restaurants and town all very close, and plenty of public transportation options available. The communal space is nice and offers an option to relax and work if you need to.

    first time to try the single capsule room. It costs a little higher than getting a bed in a dorm-style room but I loved the privacy I needed for an overnight stay.

    The capsule wasn't as clean as hoped. The blanket had blood stains. I had to ask for extra cleaning.

    Common area is very good. Also easy to get around with busses (straight from the airport!)

    it's not actually the hotel's fault, I stayed in a mixed dormitory and someone wanted the aircon off most of the time. I usually wouldn't mind but it was a very hot weekend at that time. it's only for 1 night so i opted to just share a room. well, one downside of not getting my own room.

    the location is perfect

    The room is not well cleaned especially the toilet. The blanket and bed are dirty.

    I like the location of the hotel because it is near the old port of tel aviv, restaurants and shops. Glad we booked on holidays that the bar is closed. Don't expect a quiet place because this is a capsule room.

    Vending machine inside hostel didn't work. It accepted my money, but didn't give the order. Employee at reception adviced to call to support by phone number on vending machine and support promised to make a refund. But the experience is not very good at this case.

    Common space in the hotel is great.

    small suggestion to enlarge a duvet or give two fir a couple.

    stylish design of the lobby can reminds you good club with a sophisticated smell of cigar,.... the room is efficient for a long time stay or one night. all what you need for a good price. the location just perfect for sea lovers.
