Liked: Orient is not located very close to the Petra entrance but all the cheap restaurants is around The Orient. Free wifi. Clean (but cold) showers. The staff helped me book the bus ticket to Wadi Rum for no charge. Decent exchange rate...

Disliked: The dorm room was just a blanket on the roof...

06 November 2010 Marie would recommend this property

Liked: I enjoyed the warm welcome, clear and complete information given, and the central location of the hostel right beside the bus station and on the same street as many nice restaurants and shops.The staff give genuine care and consideration to the people who stay here, and do what they can to make the stay pleasant and to help with making arrangements for tours, transportation and recommendations when asked for. If you go to Petra, it's a good choice to stay there, as the prices are low and it offers good value, even free breakfast, plus having a nice atmosphere for meeting other visitors and backpackers.

Disliked: Marie left no negative feedback.

13 August 2009 Edgars would recommend this property

Liked: The hotel manager was cool, a really hip guy. Any sort of problem gets solved in a lightning speed. It' s cheap, it' s clean and close to Petra where the hotel brings you with their private taxi for free. A slight overdose of pink in the room coloring but apart from that - a great treat.

Disliked: Edgars left no negative feedback.
