“My recent stay was fantastic — the room was modern, clean, and cozy, with a comfortable bed and a nice TV. I also appreciated the free daily water and the handy location just outside the Old City. The owners, a mother and daughter, were so lovely and accommodating. The small balcony was a nice touch, and the bathroom was spotless.”
