Only issue is that to them "room" and "roof" seemed to mean the same thing but I loved the roof after I ended up there. They worked hard to get me an airport taxi when it was impossible late on Friday and nothing is open to call...good guys!

For the price this was by far the best hostel I've stayed in. Amazing location overlooking the old city, especially from the roof terrace. Being near the Jaffa gate it makes both old and new city easily walkable. The staff are also really friendly and made an effort to remember our names. Very tasteful decor throughout and very clean.

Overall nice a place. People need to be better informed that if they book the cheapest dorm they will be staying out on the roof on a mat with a bunch of other people. The place needs to come up with a better system of who is staying on the roof. There is no reserved spot. Everyone must fend for them self and hope that once you have secured your mat that no one decides to move your stuff and leave you without a mat or the location is not there original choice. Overall a good experience. Ve

We stayed at Citadel Hostel for 4 nights. Immidiate we draw attention to the athmosphere, interior and friendly staff.
We stayed in one of the family rooms with our two children, they enjoyed the interior and the nice temperature there.
The weiv from the roof where outstanding, and enjoying a cup of coffee in the morning there, while Jerusalem was waking was an experience that we strongly will recommend. Is every thing just fine? Well-the toilet and kitchen facilitets could be better.

The hostel was very cute and friendly, but I was unsure about the cleanliness. They had no hand soap and ran out of toilet paper, and I was told there was a cat living in the alcove where they kept the "clean" blankets. I slept on the roof, which was lovely - great view, if you don't mind the muezzins and church bells waking you at 4.30 and 6. The only security was leaving a blanket on top of your bag to claim a mattress - no lockers or anything. But really, what do you expect for $14?

This place was very cool and in a great location. I was surprised by how many people they actually fit in the place. I love the idea of having a mattress on the roof, although the amount of bathrooms and showers didn't really accommodate for all the extra bodies. Otherwise I had a great time here!

May not look great from the outside, but it is wonderful on the inside! I will definitely stay there next time I am in Jerusalem.
