I don't really know what could be done to improve the hostel, as most of my concerns were with the general area, which at times felt a little thretening. Perhaps a less hands on approach from some of the staff would have been more appropriate? Although my favourite part of the stay was the meals made by Odais mum. Generally it was clean, and felt secure. The location is fine for local tourist bits, the tour arranged by Odai was good. Basically, it's cheap for a reason.

the only thing of this hostel is that the wifi works in the lobby, is cheap and the staff is nice. in the description say that is 30 metres from the bus station to the airport (that's why I choose it) but long time ago the station was move by the goverment 8 kmtr away, so is not very usfull anymore because in the area is nothing to do and see. the hot shower didn't work and the beds are the works one were we slept, is less that 1 finger width

FRIENDLY, HELPFUL, WELCOMING. ODAI, THE OWNERS SON IS EAGER TO PLEASE AND IN RETURN ASKS FOR HELP WITH THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE. BE PREPARED TO GIVE UP READING/RELAXING TIME TO ASSIST HIM !!!! VERY BASIC DORM, JUST A MATTRESS ON THE FLOOR AND TEMPERAMENTAL AIR-CON BUT ROOM DOES NOT GET TOO HOT AT NIGHT ( IN MAY ). FOR JD2 PER NIGHT I'M NOT COMPLAINING AND IT'S WALKING DISTANCE FROM CITY CTE AND CITADEL. JET BUSES FOR PETRA ARE A SHORT WALK OR 3 MINUTE TAXI RIDE AWAY. RECOMMENDED.

Best quality price in whole Jordan. They were really nice from the beginning to the end. Close to the main attractions in Amman. Very easy to find because it is in the middle of Abdali bus station, in a very nice and secure area. They helped me booked my bus ticket to Petra. They offered me tea and a really nice Bedouin supper. Breakfast is included.

This hotel should not listed in hostelworld.com. When we arrive in afternoon check in, we have to wait the owner almost 1hr. After we checked in, the owner so rude n give us in the store room (still under construction on the roof). When we asked about the places to go, the owner only recommend his business trip with the high price more than JD$350 per trip. After we refuse he got mad n so rude. By that night also we checked out n he asked full payment in 4 nights. FYI , i got pictures to share.
