The new hotel is the first in a planned chain of low-cost hotels, to be operated under the moniker WOM (short for word of mouth) by Brown Hotels in collaboration with Israeli architects and entrepreneurs Lihi and Din Gerstner. Work has recently begun on the first WOM hotel on the lower floors of the Ben Yehuda Street building where Brown recently opened the Lighthouse boutique hotel.
The upcoming 100-room complex is set to contain single and double 2-square-meter rooms with shared bathrooms. A dedicated mobile app will let guests know when the bathrooms are free to use.
