    The one thing that can be improved is cleaniness in indoor spaces.

    I was here for 3 nights and had a great experience staying here. The location is super close to the downtown area which anyone coming to Amman has to visit. The staff was very warm and helpful with anything you needed. Kudos to Ines & Laith (hope i spelled it correctly). Lastly, the hostel has so many spaces to chill. One can always find a private corner or join others in one these social areas.

    I really loved my stay here! The people in this hostel are super friendly and create a welcoming atmosphere. The bathrooms and toilets were always very clean. They also offer a wide range of tours all around Jordan, which makes it easy to explore the country. I definitely recommend this hostel to anyone looking for a wonderful and adventurous stay in Amman.

    Nothing related to hostel experience. The only issue is that its situated at the hill, just like many other buildings in Amman, which can be a bit tiring if you are walking up from downtown, but its not a big deal.

    The best hostel in Amman. Clean, lovely community, quiet environment, reasonable tours and a short walk to downtown.

    The girls dorm was a little noisy when i was having my nap time, but that’s just fellow travelers living their best lives. I’d still come back if i get to visit Amman again!

    Perfect spot for travelers on a budget! The staff were incredibly welcoming and always ready to help with recommendations. Beds were comfortable, showers were clean, and the common area was great for meeting new friends. Location is walking distance to downtown.

    Best Hostel in Jordan!
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveler

    Bathroom toilet and showers could be a little nicer/more clean if I had to be picky. Top bunk in the dorm is pretty high as well but they are quality bunks so not really a big deal.

    The vibe at this hostel is great! I wish I would have stayed longer then I did. The balcony is a great spot to chill and unwind after a fun day of exploring the city. Highly recommend you take the 2 day petra/wadi rum tour from the hostel as well. Wifi was great as well. They offer luggage storage when you do the 2 day trip as well so you don't need to book a stay here during that trip.

    We absolutely loved this hostel! The staff were so lovely and so helpful and the tours they help you organise are so much fun :) They also helped us organise the rest of our trip through Jordan recommended other places to stay along the way. The beds are also perfect for a hostel room with curtains for your own privacy.

    Everything. This is the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in. We went on 2 tours - Jerash & Wadi Mujib and loved those. We also met new friends to travel with. We’d only booked 4 nights in Carob and nothing else because we’d seen that others just planned the rest of their trip with their help - this was a great plan, glad we did this. Allowed us to take the advice of the staff and do a better trip that we would have planned for ourselves. We stayed in their recommended camp in Wadi Rum and had the most amazing time there!
