I stayed for 4 nights over NYE from Dec. 30 - Jan. 3. At first, I was disappointed that I was not staying in the Walled City, but soon came to realize it's much better to stay in Getsemani. It's a quick walk to the walled city (10 min), and it's much quieter at night in order to get some sleep. The breakfast was my favorite of the 7 places I stayed in while on my trip. Freshly made crepes, juices, eggs to order, and a variety of fresh fruit.
My only complaint is that the room I stayed in was meant to accommodate 4 people, yet there were only two very small towel racks and NO hooks for any other towels, swimsuits, etc. There is ample wall space to install additionally towel racks and hooks. I believe they should invest this.
