We stayed at the Akko Gate Hostel during the generally packed Passover holiday. The staff was very friendly and helped with everything we needed. The room was spacious, but pretty basic with minimum amenities (no towels or soap for example). It did have a great balcony overlooking the street. The location is in the old city which makes the hotel close to everything, but that comes at the price of a noisy environment (in our opinion, well worth it).
Overall, I recommend staying here.
