I had an issue with my room which was supposed to be partial sea view then it turned out to be view on a working area, the hotel dealt with it fast and the GM kiras changed my room into a better sea view room to make my stay excellent. I stayed 2 night 3 days, food was very good, the beach was clean all the time Rooms are spacious and clean. They spread water for all guests in all rooms. Breakfast was a bit crowded but they had many options. Thanks kiras for the great help !

The property has great location a great beach with beds and shade. The pool was nice and the service was great. The only thing I wasn’t expecting is to find the rooms very old and in bad conditions, the web page shows a very modern hotel but it’s not like that. I’m reality it’s old but well kept in common areas but my room was damage, old and very small (and I get the family room )

Couldn’t be better
I stayed here for two night to visit Petra. As we arrived here in the morning, I think we had better go to the city centre before check-in. But the reception let us check in earlier so we took a rest instead of wandering under the hot sun. Breakfast was good. On the last day, we could stay in the swimming pool until our taxi arrived after check-out. I feel this hotel cared about visitor’s convenience and satisfaction. I will visit here again with my kids!
