Golden Crown Haifa
No A/C in the room. Small window and feels like no air. Very noisy floor. The reception brought us a ventilator to the room…

Via Maria Boutique Suites
Fantastic room and a great location. Free on site parking was super convenient. The room had a natural wood ceiling, beautiful tile and a private balcony. Plenty of close places to eat and centrally located. I loved this place.
