A European-style tiny hotel in the heart of Natania - on Independence Square. The location is the best!!!! 3 minutes from the stairs to the beautiful city beaches with wonderful sand (there are paid sun beds and umbrellas, showers, toilets) - you can take a large elevator back (there is also a cool observation deck for lovers of romantic sunsets). The rooms in the hotel are small, but they are quite suitable for sleeping - beds, TV, refrigerator, air conditioner, kettle/cups/tea/coffee/sugar. We had a view of the dump, but it was quiet. Those who had windows facing the square must have been a little noisy - in the evening the whole city crawls out to walk in the cold, the square is very beautiful in the evening. The food is only breakfast, but it is delicious at home, Mediterranean. The administrators are Russian girls who have been living in Israel for a long time, very nice. The hotel is clean, there is a mezuzah next to each room - very nice! Next to the hotel is the central Herzl street with several squares - you can walk; near the central market with fruits / vegetables and amazing bread (visiting it before Shabbat is a separate attraction!), next to the hotel there is an exchanger, an air raid shelter, a shop that works on Shabbat. You can walk to the bus station - go to Jerusalem, for example. Next to the embankment, along which you can walk to the "Wings" - we also recommend it. Yes, there are also several cafes near the hotel, but they feed (as everywhere in Israel!) It is VERY expensive, therefore, if you have a modest budget, it is better to take care of the issue - this is not Europe! And it is also important: on Friday, everything works only until one o'clock - cafes, shops, transport, exchangers - do not work, tourists need to do everything before lunch, and until Saturday evening, for example, they will not be able to change money. By the way, the beaches will be packed with locals. We left on Shabbat for an excursion to Haifa/Akko (the guide is a Russian Jew, the driver is Moldovan). Well, it's just a personal recommendation.
