This will be my third (hopeful) stay at the Olive Room, in Beit Shemesh, Israel. The hosts are sweet, welcoming and
appreciative of business, and a DELICIOUS Israeli breakfast awaits you.
I felt like I was revisiting family, and the location was wonderful...30 minutes from Jerusalem, a 5-minute ride to my OwN family!
Can't wait to be back....lovely owners make you feel like you belong.

Comments (English):
The Olive room felt more like the Olive rooms, it was very spacious for its price. My wife loved many of the details in the house, a high grade for their taste. A really nice retired couple welcomed us. Their English is maybe not the best, but conversation was possible. The city gave a better picture of what Israel is really like for people living there. Also nature and forests like the Britannian park at a near distance.

J'ai séjourné plusieurs fois chez Helena et Elie : leur sens de l'accueil ,leur ouverture d'esprit,leur gentillesse et leur générosité me font "craquer".
Le confort , la paix et l'atmosphère du lieu me donnent chaque fois l'envie d'y revenir.
Un lieu de qualité avec des gens de qualité !!!
