  : Overall a decent value in downtown Amman. Could be a little bit cheaper. Wifi was fairly slow and did not reach all areas of the hostel (bad). Showers were clean and hot water was excellent. Location was absolutely perfect - tons of places to eat, buy souvenirs, or explore very close. The rooms had sinks in the rooms, which was excellent for brushing your teeth or washing your hands without having to walk all the way out to a common bathroom. Rooms have creative names of celebrity persons like Bob Marley which makes it easy to reference which room you are in. The general manager guy (in his 50s or 60s with a bald head; I didn't catch his name) is very friendly and talks to you by remembering your name, which I don't think anyone has done in an inexpensive hostel to me before, which was nice.
  : Hotel staff were smoking inside the common area which made the entire common area unusable given concerns of second hand smoke. Seriously - who smokes inside any more? This is 2021, almost 2022 - not 1973. Smoking is disgusting and hotel staff doing it in a common area is entirely inappropriate. They aren't paying my medical bills for lung cancer so they should stop this nasty behavior. Common area is also filled with tons of weird art and taxidermy like some sort of weird decorative legacy of the 1950s. In serious need of an update (and an update could simply be powerwashing all of the nicotine and tobacco residue off, repainting, and getting rid of the weird taxidermy...not asking for much here). Also, staff has a 3% credit card fee. Television in the common area blares weird Jordanian/Arabic programming all night even though no one is watching it (could someone please turn off the TV).

  : Staff was very kind. Hassan at the desk was always ready to help. We did several tours with Fouad and his son George and everything was perfect, also their useful tips.
  : Facilites were quite old but very correct for the price we paid.
