Frommer's Review
Israel's great painter, Reuven Rubin (1893-1974), captured on canvas the spirit and landscape of Mandate Palestine. Though the holy cities of Jerusalem and Safed were among his favorite subjects, he also painted scenes of sun-dappled Jaffa and Tel Aviv, his home city. There a documentary film about Rubin's life and work, and the Rubin Museum hosts temporary exhibits, usually of modern Israeli artists. Combine this with a stop at the 1920s period house of Israel's first great Hebrew writer, Haim Nachman Bialik.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
