I write long reviews, but i hope this review will be helpful and informative. I chose the port inn because of the location, i am in the travel business i deal with hotels and hostels as a living. 1) location. literally five minutes away from Haifa Central Shmona Train Station and the passenger terminal from the port. It sits just off the main road, to pick up a bus. Its ten minutes away, walking from the bottom of the Bahai Gardens and German Colony. Its a real hostel. As hostels here in the country improve ambience, organization, and style. Becoming more like motels rather than quirky enjoyable hostels. This one is still a real hostel with the eclectic collection of decor with a mainline stream of haifa's unique character as a city. A breakfast in the morning. A small but good functioning kitchen. A tv longe room. A garden patio. A next door, parking lot (not free) and a next door laundromat. The toilets and showers are small but clean and perfect to either start or end your day with a hot shower. The beds are comfortable. The rooms are clean. But now lets talk about the magic. And that is owed to the staff. I arrived a little late for checkin. Its a small staff therefore, the hostels front desk closes at 22:45 (10:45pm). And i missed that time. But i ran into one the managers (i think), Zeev, who saved the day by getting me in. He said that for the comfort of his other guests is why he closes at 22:45. And i respect that. But he still got me in, so i could work the next morning. I returned back that evening in which i met another staff person, Marina. She helped me change my rooms form the emergency of the previous night. She helped me in the friendliest and professional manner. After i asked if the temperature in the room could be cooler. And she did. But then she kindly relocated me to a room that was empty and had better natural ventilation with the room's balcony and windows. And it was best that anyone staying in a hostel could ask for. The staff went of their way to store my luggage, get me in late at night, and relocated me to a dorm room that practically was a private room. The next day i asked Marina's advice about a place for dinner nearby (there is so much to choose from) and thanks to her had a great dinner with my favorite israeli beer at Mayaan HaBira. I will come back more often. You cant beat the prices, the location, cleanliness, and most of all the service from the staff who went beyond what was required from them. I strongly recommend the Port Inn when visiting Haifa.
