looking to stay 2-3 days(family of 8) in the area but not sure if I should book airbnb type of house or hotel.  Dont see any option for a pool near the area on airbnb.   aAt least with a hotel we have a chance at a pool if empty?

Exactly. They actually have a small story with a lot of Cholov Yisroel and Haimish brand products as well. They operate behind/on top of the Degel Israel shul.
