It is a hostel and the service is very basic, but the rooms are very affordable and you have everything you need. Staying in a private room is the best and people are very considerate and friendly at this hostel.

good hostel. we were sleeping in a capsule. the capsule is small but cozy

6/10

Jerusalem was quite different this year from previous years. I was at several hostels, it was a rule rather than the exception that there was nobody at the reception when I tried to check in. At this one I had to sneak in and wait for about an hour before anyone came. The place didn't feel like a hostel anymore. There were very few tourists or travelers; the hostel was occupied by guest workers from India, none of them spoke English or Hebrew.

Quirky place with good atmosphere. Cabins were a bit dusty and some communal areas could do with a deep clean. But wouldn't put me off staying there given the price.

Cinema Hostel is unique, one of a kind. I came to rest but if you lije night life, the bar and music is very popular. Nicest big outdoor balcony i have ever seen. I like the private capsule rooms, they seem a bit bigger than other hostels. Its a memorable exoerience to stay here .

After a long wait for checking in Everything else during my stay went very well. The location is excellent being close to the tram stop and an easy 10 min stroll from the gates to the Old City. One thing to note is that breakfast is from 8-10am and almost all tours begin before that so I wasn’t able to have the breakfast that I paid for on most days.

DIdn't stay here. Asked for a refund because of the war and advisory to not go. But no response.

The Cinema Hostel offers several activities that are open to the public as well as guests. Music Jam, Language exchange club, and sunset yoga are just a few. The staff is multilingual and very helpful in everything from check in to giving directions to sites/attractions. They also welcome volunteers so one can work for their bed/board. I am having a wonderful time here in Jerusalem and knowing I have a comfortable/safe place to return after exploring the city allows me a freedom I had not expected as a first time international traveler!

Our experience was the Cinema Hostel was friendly, fun and staffed with hard working employees and volunteers. Common toilets and showers were clean, and we were offered cleaning service in our room. Breakfast had several choices and coffee is free 24 hours per day. Wash your own dishes, clean up after yourself. The women at reception were helpful with suggestions and advice. Plenty of good food for take out or groceries nearby and a pleasant terrace to enjoy it. Fridge available for guests but crowded. Rav-Kav card was available at the front desk for ( I think) 5 pounds. Load it at the bus/light rail stops. So convenient! Thank you.

I tried to check in twice. One time there was a note that staff wasnt available at 2 pm. Another time arounf 6 pm. I was informed by the clerk that i couldnt check in (along with others) because of something I couldn't understand. Perhaps about a group. After continuing to wait, I left and did not stay. Very disappointing. Would not recommend.

First and foremost, this is a hostel. If you're familiar with the hostel environment *and* you enjoy a hostel environment, then the environment is pretty standard. Shared kitchen, shared showers, shared bathrooms, etc. This is a good and not great feature, where sometimes you'll meet amazing people and have great encounters; other times...well...yeah. So I specify to put that out of the way, as in, I'm not basing my review on the fact that the hostel environment is loud and sometimes unpleasant. If you don't like hostels, noises, etc., then know this is going to be a typical hostel in that regard. However, a bonus here is the staff and volunteers are pretty epic. I'd give the workers a 5 star rating. The breakfast is salad, eggs, tahini, bread, cereal, etc. The capsules are as noisy if not noisier than the dorms, so beware if you choose one because of quietness; however, they are private. I generally felt safe at the Cinema, and the location is epic and perfect if you want to be in the heart of the City. A few things around the hostel don't work exactly perfectly, and there's a bar upstairs that has a big party on Thursdays that attracts creepy guys (who thankfully don't live in the hostel, but beware single ladies). Great experience overall. A few glitches, but again, it's a hostel. I'd recommend to anyone who is cool with hostels, and this comes from someone who has stayed in many Israeli hostels.

個室の部屋の中は比較的綺麗なのですが、シャワールームとトイレが最悪レベルです。また、部屋の外のカーペットが本当に汚く、いつ大量のダニが発生してもおかしくないと思います。 ホステルの下の階には、大量のインド人移民が住み着いているようで、屋上では妙な料理をしたり、肉体労働をしてるような感じでした。彼らの大量のスリッパが放置されており、時折ドアが開いており、覗き込むとほんとに汚い生活をしているのが目に入ってきます。 外観はマクドナルドのある比較的綺麗なビルなのですが、中はカオス状態です。トイレは紙がなく、全く掃除がされていない状況です。シャワーブースも、ドアが壊れており、水が出ないブースもありました。かろうじて見つけたブースは、お湯はちゃんと出ました。 ただ、個室の中はシーツやタオルがきれいでしたので、その点は評価できます。立地が良く、値段が安いそれだけが取れたと思います。
