The view was amazing, with a breathtaking Vista of the Dead Sea and the mountains of Jordan in the background. Breakfast was better than hotels five times the price and the staff was so accommodated they allowed people to take out lunch in containers and even supplied ice. The location was perfect for hiking Masada before sunrise, and a steady stream of friendly people guided us to the trailhead and encouraged us onward.
The pool was too crowded, but that could be expected since it was over a hundred degrees Fahrenheit. Also, it's probably a normal Israeli thing, but the guy at the table next to us with his family eating breakfast didn't tuck his giant pistol into his waistband and had his shirt up over it, like he was showing it off instead of being discreet.

This was a great place to stay. We really enjoyed the roominess of the rooms and the comfort of the meals prepared for us. It was really good food and the staff was very helpful and friendly.
We liked everything!

Very good hostel. It is the perfect location if you want to climb Masada in the early morning.
Very bad management of noise. There were some kids staying in the hostel that made noise all night long. Was impossible to rest. This is not acceptable, specially in a hostel that promotes to climb the mountain at 5 am (before sunrise).
