First night we had dinner at the Indian Restaurant Kohinoor beside the lobby and the second night which was Friday, we had the shabbat meal at the Hotel dining room. The meal was a huge buffet of too much food, which is typical at Israel hotel dinners.
I very much enjoyed the heated swimming pool (included in price) downstairs. There were bathrobes in the room. I could just wear a bathrobe and go down with the elevator to the floor -2 to the swimming pool.
The location. The view. The swimming pool that opens at 6.30AM - my normal swimming time, so I could keep my swimming routine while there.
Don't ask me how but I managed to drop my cellular phone, Nokia 6101 to the bath full of water. Attempts to save it with a hairdryer of the hotel bathroom didn't help. I needed to buy a new one the following day. I got Nokia 6131.
No electricity one night. I had gone to the bathroom at around midnight and there was no electricity. I was too tired to think about it more and just walked around in dark and fell asleep again. At 4.00AM mr.haiamisa woke up to strange noises from behind the bathroom wall, like a waterpump that was trying to work but didn't manage and the noise just went on and on. Still no electricity. Mr.haiamisa phoned the reception after 4.00AM and told them we must have ghosts in between the walls and he asked someone to come immediately to rescue us. They came and fixed the electricity, listened to mr.haiamisa's crazy stories and the ghosts went quiet as well. Hmm. what might they have thought about the crazy folks at the room #2026?
The hotel was under construction and it was impossible to go to the dining room that was in the floor -1 by the elevator, only by stairs. When we went down there with RhineRoll we were taken down by a staff elevator and via a long route that went via meeting rooms and the hotel kitchen...
