    The location could be closer to the beach, but it’s just a shirt walk and taxis are metered and cheap.

    Very friendly and helpful staff, quiet, comfy common room and garden.

    Our stay was wonderful! The staff (especially the owners son) were very friendly and helpful. We got a lot of recommendations and they even ordered a lot of food for us. I felt very welcome and would definitively recommend it.

    A very good hostel for a good price! The facilities were clean and had a nice standard. The staff are super sweet and helps you organise diving trips, transports, food delivery to the hostel etc. I would really recommend to stay here if you want a hostel with a chill vibe, you feel like home!

    Not exactly in the thick of the action in terms of food options or beach, and a 20-25 brisk walk from the JET station.

    For me, the place was great as a base for my diving certification and remote working. It’s super clean, quiet, great A/C, strong internet, good breakfast (pay 3JD), accepts credit cards, and coordinates diving. I renewed for multiple nights as it turned out to be a great place to stay. Dorms less than half full and met friendly people, but not a party place by any means! I got a cheaper price through the hostel for my Open Water than I could find asking around Aqaba and looking online. For remote working, there was a nice quiet space outside for me to take my calls and never was there a connection issue.

    Owners of the hostel Amer and Abdella are very friendly and hospitable. They really made me feel like at home. Also they helped with organizing tour to Wadi Rum and diving. If you prefer quiet place this hostel is for you if you'd like to enjoy the night life of Aqaba they also have a hostel near the beach. Highly recommend this place in Aqaba

    There was one bicycle in terrace, i should ask if it rentable. I saw route which goes to Aqaba airport is so nice. Full of palms and flowers.

    Since I had overstay comment would be same as before. I enjoyed sightseeing of Aqaba and had much of swimming. Sea-water is warm enough, while outside is hot even at start of April. Location is good since 1st stores you pass to the Downtown are much cheaper, so i bought water, coffee etc and continue to downtown or beach. One ice cream was 10 piastels (around 13 cents Euro), for 1 EUR you got bag of ice cream. Half liter water - 0.25 JD. In downtown price is 3× - 4×.

    Nothing much to dislike, i prolonged the stay.

    Good cook, they make what you like. Bedouin Mendaf was top. Its very clean. Two terraces, lot of Arabian comfort (seats). 2 toilettes with shower. Owner was helpful when i need to buy air ticket, free ride to Royal Jordanian office. Fresh air, flowers around. Free tea. I like terrace in company with cats. Fan and clima in the room. Relaxed atmosphere.
