В целом впечатление более чем положительное.
Pros:

Завтрак не пробовали, расположение отличное. Очень понравилось наличие бассейна. Бесплатный вход на лифт на смотровую площадку.

Cons:

Из ощутимых минусов только отсутствие возможности оплатить наличными.

מקום נפלא ללילה שתיים לא יותר
Pros:

קבלת פנים בקבלה הייתה נעימה ויסוידית. איכפתיות ורצון לספר על המקום. מיקום המלון מצויין, חניון לכל התקופה נדיר! ביתה קפה צמוד למלון ארוחת בוקר טוב.

Cons:

החדרים קצת קטנים, מחודשים, הכורסאות המדהימות שחלק מהאווירה לא ניתן לשבת יותר מחמש דק. כך שהחדר הוא רק למקלחת ושינה וחבל. מקלחת סבירה. למי שמחפש לילה שתיים בהחלט הייתי ממליצה למי שרוצה ליותר לילות תשדרגו.

Pros:

Прямо в центре. Красивый вид из башни.

Cons:

Бассейн не в самом здании - общественный рядом, старый. Нет халатов и тапочек. Гостиница уставшая, все старое. Не стоит своих денег.

Beautiful building, good value
Pros:

We booked this hotel mainly for its excellent location and good value compared to the many luxury, and more expensive, hotels nearby. The building is beautiful and spotlessly clean everywhere. The food in the restaurant is very good, not kosher, but the restaurant is open and hopping on Shabbat. The rooms are a decent size and recently renovated.

נהנינו מאווירה נעימה, מצפיה באורחים ומבקרים מכל העדות. זהו ירושלים שהייתי רוצה לראות בכל מקום.
Pros:

כל המאפים היו טריים ומעוררי תיאבון. שרות מצוין ברקע מוזיקה נעימה.

Cons:

עוצמת המוזיקה היתה גבוהה לטעמי.
