Liked: Su localizacion en el centro esta muy bien.

Disliked: No se como sera en el resto de hoteles de amman pero este si estas tres dias, en tres dias no te limpian la habitacion. Nuestro bano no estaba mal pero el compartido estaba sucio. el desayuno no es gran cosa, no hay leche. El trato del personal muy normal y tampoco se esmeraban en ayudarte.

Liked: The good thing is, that it is cheap.

Disliked: But Downtown is not a good area, unless you only want to see the historical sites. Downtown is the poorest part of Amman.

Liked: Friendly people, easy location, open 24/7

Disliked: Things were a little dishonest. I booked a cab to the airport, paid 20 dinar - what I would have paid in any taxi cab - but then I had to share it with 3 other people. So I should have paid 10 dinar or less. The hostel was great, but be careful on transportation and trips they offer - they are expensive.

Liked: bathrooms are shared and I thought pretty yuk! Very basic facilities but it is cheap so I guess that's what you pay for. Breakfast is made up of bread,jam and cheese. We stayed for one night before our flight was due to depart and that was enough. Overall alright

Disliked: Customer left no negative feedback.
