I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the plus side, the rooms were spacious and had a fantastic view of the Port of Aqaba, plus the price was quite reasonable. However, the service left a lot to be desired, especially on the first day, and the location was a bit noisy and messy at times.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On one hand, the location is fantastic, making it easy to explore the area and enjoy the nearby restaurants.
