The youth hostel is very well located, right by En Gedi national park. It is easily accessible by bus because the bus stop is directly in front of it, which makes it possible to travel to Masada and the Dead Sea beach in Ein Bokek by bus. The rooms are clean and spacious. Breakfast is included and is more or less okay.

The Breakfast was very nice, We also took Buffet Lunch, it was very good. The Hostel is secure, nicely located and well maintained. Just note that its a Hostel and not a hotel, thus all the things are basic, nothing exceptional.

“Good spot to visit Ein Gedi but literally pay the same for a hotel with better facilities”
Very average breakfast. Had to pay for dinner that was expensive and very average. Frozen schnitzel. Door not hot. Basically bad camp food. No pool. Just sleep there and leave
