I chose this property from reviews and how close it was to Petra Visitors Center. Since it is off-season, I may have been the only guest at the time. The staff was amazing and very accommodating, as they made me amazing meals at the drop of a call - which were a bounty of deliciousness. Would stay there again without hesitation.

A very good hotel for the price. A 10 minute walk to the Petra visitors centre and entrance. The walk back to the hotel is steep.
Check in was very good.
