For start, the place had no hot water in any of the rooms each of us stayed in. Shower/Toilet were dirty and the owner gave false information, causing me to miss the last bus to Aqaba at the next day, then changing versions on the go concerning finding a taxi, I wonder why... In short, wouldn't recommend it.

Thank you for your comment. I told you that the minibus from Petra to Agaba has no time table, and the room I gave to you was one of the best rooms i have with the view. We have 24 hours hot water for sure , and when you left the hotel you promised me to recommend our hotel to all your friends in Israel ? It is better to be honest. Thanks

I enjoyed my stay at The Petra Gate. The staff and owner were very friendly and helpful. Located at the the top o the hill in Wadi Musa, its a pleasent walk down to the main entrance of Petra (even more so if you've got the energy to do the uphill afterwards). The place only had a few other guests at the time but I'd still stay there again. The rooftop terrace is also excellent for winding down and watching the sunset whilst scoffing takeaway Falafel pita after hard days hike.

Staff and the owner, Naser, are very helpful to arrange trips and plans within Petra and Wadi Rum. Strongly recommended for budget travelers. Recommend Wadi Rum trips/stays at with www.desertmooncamp.net.Ask for Madallah or Wahid. Hostel is at the top of Petra, nearby to many shops and restaurants. About 15 mins walking distance from Petra entrance. It has a great terrace and viewing area which is very useful during the summer time.
