    convenient location
    old furniture
    below expectations breakfast

    The location is convenient, close to everything!

    The furniture in the room was old and uninviting. It seemed like a letdown that there was no safe box available for my valuables. The breakfast buffet was below expectations, with canned fruits and not a single fresh option in sight.

    The staff were very supportive and responsive, and the free parking was available. The location was comfortable and best possible - a short walk to everywhere we wanted to go. The hotel itself was in a shopping area, near to the shopping area and the beach and beach and city. The vibe here was SPECIAL. They offered concierge service for free, that's pretty good.

    small room
    breakfast issues

    Great Location, but Several Disappointments

    The location was the highlight of my stay, as it was just a short walk from key attractions. The room was quite small and lacked any sitting area were nice. We also faced issues with the breakfast service, as the options were limited and they failed to deliver what we requested. It didn't live up to my expectations based on other hotels I've visited in Jordan.

    helpful staff
    street noise
    limited breakfast variety
    disruptive environment

    The spacious suite offered a terrific bathroom and a well-stocked fridge. Staff members were helpful, assisting with logistics and providing valuable tips for sightseeing. The aged USDA prime steaks served at dinner were a standout, showcasing the kitchen's quality. The noise from the street was somewhat disruptive, and there was limited variety at breakfast, which fell short of expectations.

    loud mornings

    great staff but noisy mornings

    The receptionist team was great with their politeness and willingness to assist. I appreciated the complimentary room upgrade with me and my friend the privacy we desired. The breakfast was really good, with a wide variety of delicious options. I particularly enjoyed the beautiful garden view from the dining area.

    The morning calls from the müezzin were quite loud, though I understand this is part of the local culture.
