Excellent stay, highly recommended. The place was excellent, clean, and very well maintained. The hosts stayed in touch with us even before our arrival and provided clear and helpful directions, which made it easy to find the property within the maze-like streets of the Old City. We received a wonderful welcome and were given great recommendations and assistance in getting oriented around the city. The breakfast was excellent and absolutely delicious. The property had a charming, peaceful atmosphere that made our stay especially enjoyable. We highly recommend staying here and would gladly return in the future.

A beautiful historic vaulted stone chamber was very evocative of ancient times, our host, Joy, was a delight and her breakfast was wonderful. The location was very convenient to old Sfat and the unusual local hasidic hippies! The courtyard was positively gorgeous.

Great place in the center of Safed

A wonderful room in the very center of Safed, with all modern amenities, despite the antiquity of the walls, with a very cozy courtyard, where a delicious and varied breakfast was served, prepared by the owners. The hostess Joy is very nice, welcoming, and did everything to make our stay in Safed pleasant, providing us with maps and information about interesting places. Each of our questions was answered exhaustively.

Authentic Tzfat, peaceful, stunning stay in the Artist Quarter Guesthouse - recommend very highly

This place is like a little piece of Heaven. I went with a friend to celebrate my birthday, and it was absolutely perfect. Easy to locate, beautifully (authentic) appointed rooms, and a look out at the top of a spiral staircase in the garden, (toward Har Merron) and stunning garden with a fountain, sooooo peaceful and gorgeous. The hosts Joy and Even could not have been any more helpful or nicer, and the whole trip had such a great vibe. The breakfast is home cooked (Shakshuka on day one, Omelettes on day 2 and shabbat brekkie on shabbat). All super delicious (also with salad, home grown olives, humus and juice and coffee). Quiet (no tv which I liked), easy to get to Jerusalem street for shopping, and close to the important religious sites. The rooms are airy, the bathroom has great hot water, and the kitchen was stocked with everything one would need. Joy & Even are really well set with information about whats going on in Tzfat and where things are etc.

Overall, our stay was wonderful, and we recommend it!

We had a delightful three-night stay at this listing in Safat. The hosts were exceptional, providing us with detailed and essential information to help us find the location, which is somewhat hidden—so be sure to follow their advice. Staying in this century-old stone house made our experience truly special. The accommodations were spacious and well-equipped with Shabbat facilities. We also enjoyed a fantastic breakfast each morning. Exploring the area was easy, and I recommend asking the hosts for synagogue recommendations. The room heater functioned exceptionally well, especially since we arrived during the coldest time of the year.

The BnB is excellently located within close walking distance of the Old City and the main shopping area. Joy and Evan Yisrael serve an absolutely fantastic (and voluminous!) breakfast and were a great resource for local sights and information. The studio is in a building hundreds of years old and has a great historical feel.

It was a great blessing...I wish I had longer to follow up my interests there...

Main thing was the peaceful setting and charming garden area. Even more helpful was the supportive hosts friendly and welcoming and enthusiastic. Thanks especially to Evan who gave me guidance on what/where to visit.

Gorgeous place tucked away in the streets of Safed.

Very good location in the Artists Quarter of Safed. Wonderfully sized room with great airco. The roof deck and the courtyard are both gorgeous. The place is truly like a secret garden. Very very attentive and kind hosts.
