If you're visiting Jerusalem, one of the more interesting (and less expensive) places to stay is in one of the Christian hospices or guest houses in the Old City.
This one belongs to the Catholic Maronite sect (most Maronites nowadays are in Lebanon) and is located close to the Jaffa Gate. It seems spotlessly clean and was refurbished a few years ago (see below)
From www.maronitejerusalem.org
Mar Maroun guest house is part of the building of the Maronite Patriarchal Vicariate in Jerusalem which is located in the Old City of Jerusalem near Jaffa Gate.
The house is managed by Maronite nuns from the congregation of St. Therese of the Child Jesus, Who are also responsible of other parochial activities concerning the Maronite Parish in Jerusalem.
In 1999, just before the Jubilee Year the house was renovated so that each room now has its private bathroom and the other common areas are better lit and renovated so that our guests would have a more agreeable and convenient stay at our house.

Thank you very much. A friend of mine is looking to immigrate to Israel. It would be nice to get a few insider tips. The website for the Maronite Guest House has no pricing info, and I am sure that the prices have increased, but thank you for posting.
