Nassir, the manager was SO friendly and incredibly helpful to us- we had a a group of 9 and he helped us with cheap transport and shuttles into petra (although b.t.w. its not far to walk either!). We had an excellent time and i definately reccomend staying here- thankyou!

friendly staff, very basic rooms, creaky bed, not very clean (actually it was dirty, it seems that they donīt have anybody who cleans the rooms apart from changing (hopefully they did) the bed-linen, very small bathroom (It was not possible to sit down on the toilet - for an averaged sized man)

The owner was absolutely wonderful -- he seemed like the one guy in Petra who *wasn't* trying to rip us off. He helped us negotiate taxi rides and find good, cheap places to eat in town. The place is still undergoing renovation, but looks like it should be done soon.

Wow. I was beyond impressed by this hostel. The Staff was very helpful to me. Their english was very good. They were so welcoming from the time I checked in. I had an excellent view of downtown Wadi Musa and Petra's rocks in the distance. Its a downhill walk to the Petra Visitor Center (15min) The owner drove me to the nearest bus that was headed to Amman, caught the attention of the bus driver and I was able to hop on. I WILL stay here again, with no hesitation.

A small friendly and happy hotel. The owner told me 'we want guests to feel like part of the family' - exactly my experience. Fairly basic but comfortable & impeccably clean. All staff are genuinely helpful and go out of their way to answer questions, give good advice and ensure your welfare during your stay and with onward travel. A good breakfast is provided and there's a very well priced evening buffet. Hotel is in village centre and a morning lift is provided to Petra entrance. Excellent

Very, very basic accomodation. The building is unfinished. Carpet in the room was dirty, was layed directly on an uneven concrete floor and was curling at the edges.   Read Owner Comments
