The hotel is wonderful. In no way does he lag behind the fives, except for one - the second line. There is something to compare, 7 times in Egypt. But I want to tell about something else. Guys, think carefully before you rush into an adventure about a trip to Israel. Firstly, not a single tour operator warns that restoration is underway in the Church of the Nativity, because of which you will either not see anything, or stand in line for 3 hours just to see the birthplace of Christ for 2 minutes. Secondly, it turns out to go on Friday is categorically contraindicated: Orthodox Jews have a Shabbat, that is, whole hordes of men in hats and sidelocks fill the whole of Jerusalem. But the main highlight is that the road to the Dead Sea takes 7-8 hours and the same time back, and you will spend 4-6 hours at the Israeli customs !! ! they will interrogate, rummage through your bags, turning them upside down, disassemble your photo-video equipment almost piece by piece. If, of course, you think that the end justifies the means, then do not be offended later, I honestly warned you!
