Pleasant Stay with a Few Caveats I recently had the opportunity to stay at this hotel, and overall, it was a pleasant experience. Here's a breakdown of my thoughts: **Renovated Cleanliness:** The hotel's recent renovations have clearly paid off; everything was fresh and clean. **Room Size:** The room size was good, offering ample space to move around comfortably. **Bed Size Concern:** However, I must point out that the bed size was a significant issue. I'm 6 feet tall, and my feet were left hanging in the air due to the bed's small size. (See photo for reference.) **Bathroom Cleanliness:** The toilet and bathroom were both clean, which is always a big plus. **Tiny Shower:** The shower room was exceptionally small, and if you're on the larger side, it might be a tight fit even entering through the glass door. (See photo for reference.) **Breakfast Experience:** The breakfast was decent, although not exactly what I expected in an Arab country. A word of advice: avoid the bread, as it seemed quite old. **Friendly Staff:** The staff was a highlight of the stay - very friendly and always ready to assist. **Noise from Road:** If you're a light sleeper, avoid rooms facing the road, as the noise from passing cars can be disruptive. **Ideal Location:** On a positive note, the hotel's location is perfect, offering easy access to nearby attractions. **Parking Convenience:** Another advantage is the availability of parking, which is definitely a plus.

It's a good hotel for the price point. It's a in a good location, close to everything, and ideal if you're heading to Petra, Jerash, or other places. The staff is very friendly and accomodating. They were kind enough to prepare a go-box early in the morning the day I was heading to Petra. It's a relatively clean hotel with a basic breakfast, not much of a variety but all the basics are there. The only downside is that I got a room on the side of the main street, which was very noisy. I had little to no sleep the first night, and I believe the only reason I slept the second night is due to exhaustion. All in all, it's a good hotel to choose if you don't need more than the basics.

Nice, clean hotel. It was a nice and funny touch having bath towels shaped as swans on the bed. Not walking distance to the city center, but a short and cheap taxi ride away. Large breakfast buffet was included.

Close to Restaurants, malls, markets etc. fair price. Directly on main road. Acceptable level of service. In short, if you are outgoing type and use hotel for sleep and breakfast, this should be highly considered.

Some staff at the desk really need to take customers service courses. No word at the reception, seems boredom to answer questions ... it's unpleasant! That said the hotel itself is ok, clean and quite comfortable. But when you arrive in a new city, you hope to at least get a smile from people at your hotel. Just because of that, the experience was bad. The rest of the staff is nice, it’s just those at the desk.
