Ahuzat Gilboa

We arrived at the Gilboa Estate to celebrate an event, following many recommendations we read on the various websites and the pictures of the B&Bs we saw.
Unfortunately, the reality was very different from the recommendations we read and the pictures we saw.
This is a B&B whose glory days have long passed. Although the garden in the compound is beautiful and well-kept and the guesthouse looks clean, it was not maintained.
At the entrance of the B&Bs are torn sofas, the ceramics around the jacuzzi are falling, the back yard of the B&B was completely neglected and in general the B&B and the furniture in it looked old and uninviting.
Unlike luxury B&Bs, which offer a variety of accessories and treats (such as a coffee machine, drinks, chocolates, etc.), the B&B at "Ahuzat HaGilboa" is not equipped at all and our B&B did not even have a bottle of water or a carton of milk, not to mention other treats.
In order to enter and leave the gates of the settlement, you have to call the owners of the guesthouse each time, which is inconvenient and can cause inconvenience (for example, when you want to enter back into the settlement in the middle of the night).
Those who come to the B&B should also take into account that they are near Arab settlements and therefore get to be woken up by the muezzin at four o'clock in the morning.
In addition, the owner of the B&B is not a particularly cordial person, starting from the phone conversations with him and ending with his response to the requests addressed to him.
In short, the B&B turned out to be a disappointment and a place we will certainly not return to.

About a month ago, my friend booked us a night at the princess's bed and breakfast to surprise me for my birthday, and in addition, two weeks before the desired night, we booked a couple's massage.
The honorable Mr. Yoav called my friend three days before and informed her that I had duplicates in the order and he should cancel, of course there were no duplicates, he simply received a larger order and tried to send us to Kebinimet.
After a conversation of half an hour he decided to give us another B&B, my girlfriend asked him if he remembered that we also ordered a massage and of course he didn't remember because the gentleman doesn't write anything down!
We arrived at the B&B on Friday. Indeed, the B&B is beautiful and tidy, my friend also asked to stay until 4 o'clock on Saturday when she booked the B&B, and of course the master forgot that too and said it was not possible and wanted to kick us out at 12 o'clock. After a short argument, we stayed until 3 o'clock.
The room is really beautiful and everything is clean and tidy, one problem is the converter goes crazy and doesn't work at all properly, I came to tell him this and he waved me goodbye.
Disgusting and unpleasant person at all!!!
The place is stunning but the contact person is absolutely disgusting.
Needless to say I will never go back!

I stayed at Zimmer Dekal which is located on the first holiday of Sukkot on 27-28/09
We were very disappointed with the B&B. The B&B is very low level and very old with all its fittings and not as promised. I will mention a number of things: the double bed is very creaky, the kitchenette is poorly equipped, there is no TV remote. , weak current in the shower, marker leaking mushrooms in the shower, doors creaking. Products cannot be stored on the door in the refrigerator. Wine and treats were promised on the site, but there wasn't even milk in the fridge. The coffee expired in 2014. Safety hazards: extremely hot water (my daughter was burned), lighting in the entrance is not clear how to turn it on, windows open inward (my daughter was hit in the head). There is no closed shower, the water spreads and slides easily. The shower is really poor.
I will note that the outside environment is very well maintained and beautiful. Unfortunately I will not return and do not recommend. Another thing: the owner of the place demanded the money upon our arrival at the place. Something that is not acceptable and the first time I encounter such a thing.

When we arrived and the owner of the B&B showed us the room, there was a dead jack in the middle of the room, I didn't pay attention because it can happen. Then we entered the jacuzzi and turned it on exactly as he explained to us. As we turned on the jacuzzi pumps, a terrible smell of sewage and dirt came out. I immediately called him and he, before he even looked, offered in the height of his impudence to give us the money and that we should leave at 6 in the afternoon. After I explained to him that we had nowhere to go, he changed our B&B to a more spacious B&B. It is important to note that he had 4 free guest houses and he chose to give us the smallest one. In this B&B the jacuzzi also took out dirt but not to the same level so there was no more strength to complain. In the bathroom there was a problem with the water drainage, when you take a shower the shower is flooded. In short, I will not go back there, the experience we had there was not pleasant at all, the attitude of the host was disgusting. Just disgusting

The host was very nice and the B&B was clean and cozy. We stayed in the "Love" unit. There are about 5 B&Bs in the complex.
The problem is that compared to other guesthouses where we stayed, the sense of pampering and personal attention is very lacking.
There are no treats such as fruit and chocolates, although it is stated on the website that there are. The host gave us a small bottle of wine after we mentioned it to him.
There were no robes and no bubble bath for the jacuzzi. The main problem was the bed - the mattress was not comfortable and we had to turn it over because the springs were sticking out. Also, the pillows were very uncomfortable (you see they have been through a lot) and when we asked for more pillows, there were none.
If they take care to improve all these things, there is no doubt that the stay experience will be much better.
