Location was excellent for exploring all the tourist area in a walking distance, the place in general was very nice, Sharon really try to help us and accommodate the best way possible. Thank you Sharon.
I had a very beutifull expiriance over here. The apartment is really nice down to detail and so cozy and relaxing. Eventhough There is'nt really a view inside but in the garden there is a beutifull view and its lovely and also sharon was really nice and helpfull
Great location with really nice and original accomodation in the spirit of Tzfat.
Everything was great, the only downside was the small bathroom and shower which was really tiny.

Wonderful Experience
The apartment was amazing. Close to everything. Really nice courtyard garden with incredible views of the mountains and valleys. I highly recommend this place. Next time I'm in Israel I'm going to book a longer stay here.
Charming and spacious apartment. It’s in a great location near the art galleries, shops and restaurants. Parking was a little challenging. We had to park down a hill and roll our luggage up it and then up several steps. Pack light! Also, it was difficult to find, it’s not called Zefat Zimmers (I forgot the name but I would recommend asking). The apartment manager was super friendly and patient with us. She was waiting to welcome us. Overall, it was a pleasant stay.
Check in was very easy. The owner is very friendly. The spacious room is in a very central location on Jerusalem Street with restaurants and shops.

Not as cute, or clean, or well equipped as I expected.
The bathroom is the smallest bathroom I have ever experienced before. It smelled and the floor around the toilet had not been cleaned in a while. Thete were hairs on the bedsheets when we pulled back the covers of the bed to go to sleep. There were very few things to cook with in the kitchen. One tiny frying pan and one pot. The stove top did not work, and the electric burner plate did not function correctly. This is great if you want only a piece of bread and a cup of coffee. The iron was unuseable. A previous person had melted white plastic onto the surface of the iron. The landlord was good about helping us find the property.
Our stay in the loft-studio apartment was wonderful. The outdoor gardens and seating areas made for wonderful mealtimes during our stay and the accommodations were clean, comfy and cozy. Check-in required a pre-call to the owner so he knew when to show up to hand over keys ... would have been helpful to know this in advance so we could have planned a time vs having to wait once we arrived. There is NOT free parking on-site, but plentiful overnight parking within a 1/2 km of the property.
We came to Safed for the weekend and by coincidence had several events very close to it. Location was great, right, and especially that the old city was close as well, a 5-10 minute walk. The staff -- actually Sharon, the person we met (who is not on location), was prompt and courteous, and extended herself when we had a little bump in our arrival plans.
The room (Garden) was spacious and nicely decorated, with a small kitchen that worked out well for us. The bed was comfortable and the a/c worked well. The area was quiet, as expected. As other reviews noted, it was a little strange for the us to have the toilet and shower in the bathroom separated only by a curtain. We were concerned about flooding once we used the shower, but it did drain pretty well so it all worked out fine.
All in all I would recommend this for a small family who wants an affordable stay in a lovely setting!

Convenient, central and true to Tzfat feel
We stayed in Beit Yosef Pine Tree unit for three nights with our two teenage daughters. Sharon, the host met us there and was very helpful and friendly. The unit is a large single room with enough space for a lounge, dining table, kitchen and double bed. A small loft upstairs has room for another double bed. There is a single bathroom with shower/sink/toilet. On the upside the place is very well located on Jerusalem road and walking distance from all of of Tzfat's wonderful attractions. There is a free parking in the street behind which was helpful. The unit itself is very much in keeping with Tzfat's look and feel. It is clean and charming. The two downsides were the bathroom which is extremely small. When using the shower it totally flooded the floor of the whole bathroom which was frustrating. The other downside was the lack of appliances and utensils in the kitchen. There is no toaster or washing machine. The oven/stove is not working and a small electric plate was offered where only only one small plate was functioning. There is a distinct lack of cooking untensils and crockery too (e.g. only one pot and a small pan). Still we enjoyed our stay there since the charm and location make up for some of these shortfalls.
Many people come to Zfat for a day trip and don't stay over and the provision of decent accommodation right in the heart of the town is limited. With three of us (myself, my wife and 17 year old daughter) we wanted something well located in this hilly town, without having the cost of two rooms.
This was a great option and the price was ok for Israel.
There is parking nearby and some of it is free but spaces weren't available for the time we were there so we paid a small amount for the 08.00 to 16.00 when restrictions apply.
The lodging is close to the artists' area and the lively town with loads of places to eat and to buy groceries if you want to stock up the large refrigerator.
Only minor quibbles were that the otherwise effective aircon didn't keep the upstairs gallery cool, so it was difficult to get it right for all occupants, and there is a switch for hot water that we weren't told about so my wife and daughter has lukewarm showers before I discovered how to have hotter water.
Sharon the host was there to meet us and let us in. There is a Shabbes urn and timeswitches for those that need.
