I found the hotel to be a mixed bag. The rooms were rather tight but still comfortable, despite being next to the common area causing noise at night. On the bright side, it's conveniently located near the communal area, although the late-night music made it hard to sleep.

The service was exceptional, with great local food recommendations and a very welcoming and polite staff.

I was impressed by the stunning view of the Petra mountains from my room. The hotel was clean and nice, but a bit tricky to find. The service was exceptional, especially from the lovely lady Sajeda at the front desk. The location was ideal for visiting Petra, just a short drive downhill to the parking. The dining offered a delightful mix of local and international cuisine, although it could use some improvement. Overall, a great stay with friendly staff and a beautiful view.

Staying in the female dorm room near the communal area was a mixed experience. The music played until midnight made it hard to sleep, but the room itself was tidy, cozy, and even had an air conditioner, which was a major plus. The staff were friendly until payment time, providing great local food recommendations, and being super attentive. The location, though quiet and away from the town noise, involved a challenging uphill walk that wasn't fun after a long day exploring Petra. The hotel offered a lovely view of the mountains during dining, but the breakfast options were not well communicated and took time to prepare. Despite some drawbacks, the facilities were kept clean and comfortable.
