Our room was very tired and in need of a refurb. The photos on Hotels.com were clearly taken a long time ago! Windows would not lock. Good little grocery available on the kibbutz, (limited opening hours) useful as the dining room is not open in the evening during the week. Pleasant and friendly little tea room, but again limited opening hours.

una vera oasi nel deserto
molto accogliente, pulito e ricco di agevolazioni; ottimo la possibilità di avere un angolo cucina in camera per potersi preparare un caffè o un te caldo; ottima la pulizia e la disponibilità; Piacevole anche la tea House ove poter pranzare o cenare con prodotti locali freschissimi

Wenn auch Öko-Kibbutz: das war dann doch etwas sehr sparsam an Pflege und Sauberkeit... Wlan ging manchmal Leute sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit.
