    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.

    Nothing, all was excellent.

    Every aspect of the Artist Quarter Guesthouse was outstanding. The rooms are beautifully restored from centuries ago which give the visitor an authentic Safed experience, yet with all the modern conveniences. Ancient and modern are perfectly blended. The accommodations are spotlessly clean. The breakfast was fresh and delicious. Joy and Evan are the ultimate hosts. They went out of their way to welcome us, provide us with useful information and recommendations, and to ensure a wonderful stay. In summary, a fantastic experience.

    I'm struggling to find a single thing I'd say could have been better. I would recommend 11/10 this stunning place and great hosts, and will most definitely be staying there again myself.

    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.

    Honestly can't think of anything negative.

    Our charming and cozy room (one of two in the B&B), the setting, our hosts (filled with good suggestions about our stay in Sefad), the breakfast … everything. The courtyard is also beautiful; we ate our breakfast outdoors the second day. (Free parking, at a premium in some parts of Sefad, is available very close by). … This was our third stay over several years; we can't wait to return again.

    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.

    Everything was wonderful at the Artist Quarter Guesthouse. The one attribute that stands out is attention to detail. Everything one needs is supplied in the room. It is located in a charming and lovely authentic 18th century courtyard that has been renovated beautifully and in wonderful taste.

    Bed was a bit uncomfortable but I'm being pretty picky.

    Exceptional hospitality from Joy and Evan. A cute, picturesque little corner of Safed with the guesthouse offering a quiet escape in beautiful surroundings. Joy and Evan really have the art of quality hospitality down pat, ready to chat, amazing breakfast (actually too much e.g. one of our nights was Friday night when no eateries/restaurants are open and Joy provides a pre-prepared breakfast on Friday for Saturday. There was so much for breakfast we ate our Friday night dinner from the breakfast and still had ample for the following morning). Rooms are air conditioned, have tea and coffee, fridge, hair dryer. If I could give more stars I would.

    Something other than stones for a headboard would have been nice. It was a longish walk, with our luggage, from where we had to park our car (but both Evan and Joy helped!).

    Breakfast was served by the host at a table just outside our comfortable room, and it was great! Fresh-baked bread, eggs, etc. Strong Turkish coffee (our preference) was freshly brewed.
