Good value and location, everything well setup and geared towards flash packers. I stayed in a a fairly quite single ensuite room, great for your arrival day when you need to catch up with sleep. Private rooms with opportunity to meet other travelers. The morning shift was considerably more helpful than the evening one. I could send gear here before my arrival and they offered to exchange money when I couldn't withdraw from the ATM. Thanks!

The location is great; close to key attractions, restaurants and shops. Rooms are spacious and clean. Beds have lights, plugs and lockers. There’s a very tasty and substantial breakfast buffet for 3 JOD. The girl at the desk may not appear the most welcoming but she is courteous and gives you honest and helpful info when asked.

They reliably picked me up at the airport in the middle of the night. My room was very comfortable with a working TV, AC, a fridge, and a balcony for a good value. The location is perfect: just a short walk to all the main sights and to restaurants, and it is easy to get a taxi right near by. Lots of outlets in the room, and all very clean.

Does exactly what you want for cheap accommodation without obvious compromises. It's walking distance to downtown, Citadel, Rainbow Street etc.

“Great stay, just don't expect anything beyond a clean bed.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Stayed 2 nights
When I mean extras I mean towels (1 JOD), breakfast (3 JOD), or anything else. I had issue with wanting to fill my water bottle from the filtered tank. They were resistant, and saying I needed to use a plastic cup that you throw away or buy a bottle of water from the shop down the street. I think this is ridiculous, as it saves them a little bit of money by not consuming their plastic disposable cups.
This hostel is economically a good deal, just don't expect any extras.

Reception was usually empty every time I was coming back. You had to ring a bell and wait if (not always) someone was coming.
Good location, walking distance from the centre. Nice bed, with charging sockets and lights available next to it. On the first night there were no other guests in the room so I had it just for me. Clean bathroom.

Our driver to the airport decided to make a stop along the way (said 5 mins) but after 12 mins we had to go find him and then wait another 4 mins for him to finish was he was doing. At midnight we were not very impressed.
Due to change in plans, we were only at the hotel from 5pm to midnight before flying out. We were able to do washing which was very convenient. We walked to a Tims Burgers for a meal and found it in a nice street with some other food options and shopping. The hotel organised a driver for us to the airport which was cheaper than the taxi we got to arrive.

The guy working the night shift is friendly but doesn’t seem to have your best interests at heart. Example: trying to get you to use their driver by telling you that public transport will be more complicated and more expensive than what your research. It was neither complicated nor more expensive.
