Very nice place with lovely people. When I arrived I could observe that it's clean. The different rooms are really nice. There is a chilling room with free thee and water. A room where you can work on your laptop. The dormitory is clean with air conditioning. They provide anything you need and you really feel that they care for us. Very lovely people. Baha and Mahmoud I'll never forget them They made me feel home gave me tips about what to visit and also helped Planning. One of the best hostel I ever stayed in! I really recommend you will not regret!

I like mattresses, and also the outlets with USB charging

Hola mundo. I like HAKAIA too much. This is the best Hostal in the Middle East for sure, the people is so nice, the stuff is incredible, They reply my message almost 24 hours for things that doesn’t have anything to do with the Hostel. But the best part of this experience is the mattress, it’s so comfortable. I really like it because I was sleeping in other hostels in Egypt and Turkey with terrible mattresses, and I was so tired, but here I slept like a baby. Everything is great here.

It was a bit loud in the street outside but not the owner's or hostel fault. It is Ramadan, so street are busy at night

You've to come here to meet Baha'a, the owner and his brother Mohammed. They're exceptional and will show you the Jordanian hospitality. As well as the goods spot and places to go, the prices, etc etc. This is a nice hostel, really clean and tidy. Where you can even find a working office. You'll find a nice seating place near the desk, nice place to have a talk and enjoy a tea, right after the entrance. Possibility to rent snorkeling equipment, buy some small stuff (magnets, spices, post card, etc etc from local market). Really good breakfast. Delicious tea, available at any time. It was a bit loud in the street as it is Ramadan but it was an exceptional stay, as always. Thank you again to have host us and see you again!

One if not thee best hostel in the Middle East. Everything you could wish for and more. Delicious breakfast every morning. Super friendly and knowledgeable staff. They rent snorkel equipment and have super quiet comfortable dormitories. Can't recommend highly enough.

Everything was great ! The place is great, it has everything you need as a backpacker. And even a super cute cat 🥹 The breakfast is basic (Jordanian style) but homemade. The room and bathroom were clean and the bed was comfortable. The Tayeh brothers will give you great advice and maybe propose you a day tour somewhere 🤩 You will feel that it’s really an authentic place!

Staff very nice and helpful. You feel that you are in family hostel. Also, there were facilities to wash clothes (washing machine, 3 jod or wash it yourself, and then there were 2 clothes racks in balcony. Very good and simple Jordanian breakfast. Although I was travelling (tourism), there was a room for coworking, with several desks and a tv screen. I have not visit public beach or Al-Ghandour beach. I paid one day in Berenice beach club. The pick up-drop off shuttle was free.

Absolutely nothing.

It was convenient and in the middle of the city. It was close to everything. The staff were very helpful and just lovely. This is the best hostel I have ever been to. I have stayed in hostels all over Europe and this one was the best by far. Everything was super clean and convenient.

We have spent 3 nights in the hostel. The hostel is clean, new, modern, and super comfy. There is also a super nice hostel cat. The owner, Mohamed, helps you with any questions, recommends activities like diving, coffee, and food places. There is also a rooftop with a great view of Aqaba (a nice sunset spot). In the mornings, there is an excellent traditional breakfast freshly prepared by the owner. Would definitely come back.

Very little. My only suggestion would be to lower the balcony screen so you can see the view.

Clean, comfortable, very kind staff, amazing breakfast.

This is a great place for backpackers. The location is just fantastic, just a kilometer away from Aqaba Gateway, and right opposite the local bus station. They have a balcony where you can dry your clothes, something not hostels have. You can also plan your water activities from this place, and tours as well. They also have a range of diving equipment you can use for free. The breakfast is really good as well.
