The property is tucked in a quiet corner and is sort of a secret place for travelers like you. It accommodates three people and is totally pet-friendly. The owner leans towards travelers with cats.
Spacious rooms as well as those that are bright and airy - are one of the most important points to look for when choosing an Airbnb. And this Airbnb in Jerusalem’s Old City ticks those boxes.

6. Picture-perfect retreat with a lovely balcony (from USD 150)
A very chirpy and tastefully done Airbnb home makes for the perfect place of stay in Jerusalem. Located close to all the interesting sights in the city, this apartment truly adds to the experience. There’s a private balcony for you to watch the sunset with your friends after a long day of sightseeing.
A cosy and yet spacious flat in the midst of everything. It provided everything that we needed as a young family with three kids: a washing machine, an ironing board and a lot of places to lay down and relax. We were even able to invite some friends for dinner. Our hosts made special efforts to provide for us a baby bath tub and a crib and ordered a taxi transfer to the airport. We were lucky renting such a nice flat that made it easy to feel like home in the city. Dilchs Sowie

7. Stay at a kosher home to experience it all!
This vacation rental is located very close to the Old City, the German Colony as well as the First Train Station. Lady travellers, make note, there is in-house massage service available for you here. Two people can stay comfortably in this welcoming place and there is breakfast facility available (grab it!). It is ideal for couples and travellers, but not suitable for children as the host mentions it may not be safe for kids from the age group 2 until 12 years. The hosts are very hospitable and friendly, just ensure that you don’t take any food into the home unless it’s marked kosher. Being a Kosher home, it is very tastefully done and will give you a beautiful experience of living in the Old City. Killing two birds with one, can’t get any simpler!

9. Old city apartment with private courtyard
Located in a residential neighbourhood, this old city Airbnb apartment comes with a private courtyard. The hosts are said to be very friendly and can speak fluent Russian. (Russian travellers take note!) The vacation rental is in the Jewish corner and gives you a perfect atmosphere to experience the typical life of a local.
The place was great. Very authentic Old City experience. Why would you want anything else visiting Jerusalem for a short time. If you want 5 star hotel, book that. If you want a cool place owned by nice people who have lived in Jerusalem and owned this house for generations, you will love staying here. They were so kind to offer us tea and cakes one evening and spent time with me and my family. It was a lovely time. They also gave us all the space we wanted or needed so it was really just a fantastic time staying with them. I would love to go back and stay here again. The house is comfortable and has everything you need for your stay. Reese
