Fair location, staff is friendly and helpful. Not the most amazing hostel I've stayed at, but not bad for the money.

Stayed for 1 night in twin ensuite room with a fan. Our experience with the staff was excellent, since we were arriving directly to Petra Visitors Centre with JETT bus, they came to take our bags to the hostel so we can go straight to Petra sight. Also, next morning we were going very early to Wadi Rum, so they reserved seats for us in a minibus and arrange for it to pick us up in front of the hostel. The room was very clean and the bathroom was great. Basic but good breakfast. We recommend.

From reviews I was expecting a bit more. With 10 JD more you can get a single room in any sorrounding hotels with your own bathroom.

One of the best hostel I stayed at. The owners (Gail and Ibrahim) really made the hostel shine.

This is a great hotel/hostel, setup to cater for people going to Petra and does a great and friendly job of it. The two owners are young travelminded people having settled down for the moment and they hang out in the communal area since they live in the building and are always friendly, helpful and funny. They offer a great packed lunch to bring with for the day in Petra. WiFi is maximum available in Jordan, it is not a party place (Jordan is not) but a nice homebase to explore Petra.

Loved this place. Felt like a home away from home. Great breakfast. Only problem was that wifi signal did not reach room, needed to sit in reception.

Really nice and helpful staff. A little old building and elevator. But it's not a big problem. Good hostel!

The toilet for the dormitory is not so much comfortable because of the tight space, but is a good hostel and the people are really kind and helpful

Really liked this hotel, especially its reasonable price compared to other places in the area. Breakfast was great and the room was very clean and comfortable. The staff are very helpful, welcoming, and nice. Sack lunches to take into the park are a great idea and were very delicious. Rooftop terrace is awesome. We really enjoyed this place and absolutely would stay here again!

This hostel is smack in the middle of Wadi Musa, the town that services the 'Petra' attraction. Warm welcome by staff whom were cool and all spoke English. The hostel is old and has basic facilities but is well maintained and very clean. The rooms have clean sheets and the shower was hot. Located within 100m are a plethora of shops, stalls and eats. The wifi works everywhere and was excellent speed. Lounge area is comfy and they serve you free tea. Breakfast is fresh and starts at 6:30. Awesome!

The staff are very friendly. The atmosphere is homely. Just one criticism: it was hard to get hot water in the shower.

Our double room was narrow but clean enough. The view from the terrace is nice and the breakfast is very good.

It was a great place to stay in primarily because of its owner.The lady took great care of us and was always always cheerful and affectionate. They could improve the toilets of their rooms though.Overall a place which is value for money.

The hostel itself is basic -- don't expect anything fancy. The real prize is the owner, Gail, who is extremely helpful and pleasant. There is a friendly vibe at this place, and it's a good place to rest your head in Petra.
