“Israeli Welcome and Hospitality at their Best”
I spend much of my life traveling and came across the Shwartzimmer while participating in an archeological dig in nearby Hazor. I had little idea that this would be one of the best places at which I ever stayed. My two weeks there were fantastic. Wish I did not have to leave. The apartment is large and magnificent, with a brilliant view to the Golan Heights and an off-street parking spot right at the entrance. The place is very peaceful and tranquil. For city-dwellers this tranquility is an unbelievable special treat. The location is wonderful, within 5-minute drive to many excellent shops, eating places, and restaurants and within a short walk to a synagogue. The cleanliness and comfort of the apartment are outstanding. Everything worked. The air conditioning and wifi were strong and 100% reliable. But above everything, the hospitality by the owners was a rare gem, Israeli welcome and hospitality at their best. They really care about their guests. They made sure I had all that I needed, welcomed me with a basket of fruit, bottle of wine, beer, milk, and water in the refrigerator. They even had band aids and cotton wool in the closet which came in very handy when I cut myself at the dig. There is a beautiful jacuzzi in the apartment. The owners invited me to join them, which is a special honor. I learned that they came from a pioneering family, almost like descendants from the Mayflower. And when I had a problem, they were extremely forthcoming, honest, and accommodating. One more comment: I saw one review mentioning difficulty finding the place. I refute this. All it takes is calling or texting the owner, who gave me excellent directions. I will just end by saying: it has been one of the best stays I ever had, I would rate it 11 out of 10, and I will be looking forward to return and stay at the Shwartzimmer again – hopefully very soon. I liked everything
