😠 If it weren't for the fact that they dont give refunds, I would've gone somewhere else. There is no elevator, the rooms are so tiny that I feel, only one person could stay in there. There were no paper towels in the restroom, and the locks are not good. The "free" breakfast is coffee and a cake, any... People often mention room, stay,

    This place is a joke. When I arrived I was placed in an extremely small and unpleasant room about the size of a closet. I could barely fit my luggage. Room was disgusting.I thought that there may be bed bugs. Window had not been covered appropriately and someone could easily see inside the room. The pictures shown are misleading and not to mention there's no elevator. I ended up checking out immediately even though I had no place to stay. Receptionist didn't care and was not given a refund.

There were no paper towels in the restroom, and the locks are not good. The "free" breakfast is coffee and a cake, anything better, you have to pay for. If someone asked where they should stay, I would say anywhere but here, even if it means the airport.

    I can't recommend this accommodation. Our room was dirty, hair laid on the floor and the shower it was mold. The view from our balcony is not remarkable. Just destroyed stuff of buildings and rubbish. But the worst thing was that a kakerlakk wanted to stay the night with us in our room. Thank God we could avoid. The only positive thing is that the guys at the reception were friendly and courteous.

    I was booked at Momo's nearby, but then changed my booking, so they put me in the Sky Hostel instead. I paid more for a room with AC, but it turns out the AC is plugged into a power-saving motion detector, so if you're not moving around (like while you're sleeping!), the AC turns off. That was annoying since I'd paid more for AC. Otherwise, the room had everything I needed for a 2-night stay: bed, bathroom, a tiny table, mismatched chairs, and a small weird fake plant slightly tipped out of its pot. A mini-fridge would have been nice, since the communal one downstairs is a little creepy. The area is noisy and the hotel lacks ambiance, by which I mean that you should make sure you're not put off by a lobby full of drifters, but the room was fine. Great location, close to all the nice beach hotels you're not staying at. :-)

    I first came there 4 years ago and the dorm room was a bit depressing. Now me and my friend could afford a private room for two and it was great: spacious and full of light. We enjoyed it very much. Thanks:)

    Very basic hostel. I stayed over weekend. The bed I got could have been clean, but do not expect anything here. Breakfast is a pre-made sandwich and coffee/tea/juice. Would have gotten a 1, but place has a roof and is rather close to the sea.

    Horrible place. AC didn't work. The walls were peeling. Dust in the bathroom. Shower door was broken. Do not go there!

    It is filthy. The doors are made of plywood. The hotel does not care about guests experience. There are not even hooks in the bathroom. It costs as much to stay as other, really nice hostels in the same area so can't even be considered a cheap sleep.

    Good location. Depending on the counterperson sometimes helpful sometimes not. Only expensive carparking possibilities in the neighbourhood. Room smelled horrible humid cold socks wet. Doors don't close peoperly. During very windy nights they bang constantly. Very loud and very annoying. Filthy and super dirty common toilet. Only for sleeping in your own things and survivung a few hours at night a cheaper option. I would not stay there again.

    Luckily only stayed there for one night. The only positive I can think of is the proximity to the sea. The room was beyond basic, shared shower and toilet were dirty. No lift, WiFi only in the reception area. Doors were made of plywood which meant no decent sleep due to all the street noise. Staff were neither friendly nor helpful. Common area consists of a few sofas next to the reception, and kitchen consists of a kettle, fridge and microwave right next to a toilet. A cherry on top was a cockroach in bed - if it wasn’t late at night I would have looked for another place to stay. I saw several rats in the area where you can leave your backpack after checking out ( for 5 NIS!!) Overall, worst hostel I have ever stayed in.

    I paid for a reservation 100€ in advance, then I cancelled the reservation and they stole 130€ from my credit card, that is 230€ as a gift to a trash hotel run by Russians. I recommend avoiding them, they are not polite and they are not interested in their clients, only in the money they can bring them.
