Beth-Shalom

Stay Elsewhere!! Better Recommended hotels We used to be regulars. Stayed here many times in the past. As a travel guide . we have referred many Baha’i people too. This time we booked 9 days. Place has deteriorated enormously. Yes we made a mistake and left clothes on the heater to dry. The brother is rude and hostile. And it began the minute we walked in from overseas. No hello. No Welcome back Yes there is a war going here, as he reminded me rudely after telling us off about leaving the clothes on the heater. But no excuse to have freezing corridors with no heat whatsoever and wind and rain blowing through. We have come to visit sick relatives. And since staying here I am now sick! We stayed in 2 warm hotels in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem - no heating problems. There was even a drying rack. Nowhere to hang clothes to dry or clothes rack. No laundromat anywhere Why stay open if there is a war and you can’t afford heating in what has been the coldest weather in 30 years? Next breakfast deteriorated too. Used to be a better selection - many things removed and served several days in a row! Finally! A very low light switch immediately above the bed. Have banged our heads numerous times . No response at all It is actually the indifference and rude attitude . We are very unhappy about this and will not be staying here again! Or recommend to our Baha’i friends.

We were 3 to stay at Beth Shalom for 10 days. We did not have internet in our room for 10 days, each employee giving us a different reason why. Uncomfortable bed-camp, rarely changed blanket (even when stained) and clogged shower. We also stayed locked outside the hotel one evening. The staff is friendly and the breakfasts are good.
