Disliked: Staff & service
Fine for a night
It was very hard to find (do NOT use Google maps - it will take you to the wrong location). Upon check in the receptionist charged my card again, even though I pre-paid through hotels.com I had booked an all female dorm but was placed in a mixed dorm. I didn't particularly care, but something to consider if that is important to you. The dorm beds are all open, so no room with doorways, but the hotel was pretty quiet. It was spacious with lots of area to sit. The bathrooms were spacious too. They have two toilet stalls with sinks separate from the showers and a large counter with mirror for getting ready in the morning. The condition/upkeep of the bathroom was a little sub par, but not awful! Taxi from the airport was 22 JOD. Taxi to the JETT station was 2-3 JOD. Lots of shops and restaurants nearby the hostel, too.

Very friendly staff and helpful. Close to all the main attractions in Amman 👍 Plenty of shops, restaurants within 30 seconds of leaving the hostel. Rooms are new and very comfortable and quiet, free water no waste of plastic, tea and coffee, hot shower, working a/c after a hot day in Amman. Would definitely stay again 👍
