De Cardo Hotel

The hotel was clean. The shower leaked water all over the bathroom floor - which I cleaned up. All in all it was fine. But - it was almost impossible to find. I went to the address - and I don't see a thing that resembled a hotel. It turns out, you need to walk through a rusty gate and down a flight of stairs (below street level). It occupies just a small space all on one level. If a lady from the hotel hadn't seen me on the street looking confused, I'd have never have found it.

This place, very nice

酒店非常不錯

Great Location, Comfortable Room - But Very Noisy. Great Location, Comfortable Room - But Very Noisy. More Hostel like than Hotel !! The location of the hotel is absolutely perfect — within walking distance to the city center, the Old City, and Mahane Yehuda Market. You really can’t beat it for convenience and atmosphere. The room itself was large and very comfortable, offering plenty of space and all the amenities needed for a pleasant stay. However, the major downside was the noise. The hotel is located beneath an older residential building, and you can hear everything from above — kids playing ball, riding scooters, and generally making a lot of noise directly overhead. It was extremely disturbing, especially during lunch resting time and evenings. Noise from neighboring rooms was also quite noticeable. If you’re a light sleeper or looking for peace and quiet, this might be a challenge. But if location and comfort are your priorities and you don’t mind the noise, it could still be a good option.

1) Especially if expecting to arrive late: make sure you have manager's contact info and instructions on where the entrance is and how to get in! 2) Pro: a) perfect location - steps from Ben Yehuda St., and 10 min walk to Old City, b) large - my room was really two separate rooms with two full bathrooms - perfect for a family, c) quiet 3) Con: a) hardly any storage, b) needs a deep cleaning, c) needs a table and chairs (plenty of room for this)

To get a 2 bedroom suite at this price was a great, but then you factor in the amazing location, and this place is a gem! The suite had 2 bathrooms, which made our family of 4 very happy. The water was hot, and the rooms were clean, not spotless. When you factor in the low price, we were very happy with everything. When you're this close to the Jaffa Gate, the pedestrian-only shopping streets, and the Mamilla Mall, you never need transportation, but if you do, the train is a block away. One downside of the room is the windows don't let much light in, so it can feel a little cave-like. We did appreciate the second bedroom was a safe room, with a steel door and heavy locks.
