The owner of the property. Set in the hills this exquisite property offers more than basic amenities and thats ...the colonel ( owner) khidamath ( hospitality ) . From the moment of our late arrival ,his presence at the main gate. Helping us to park our own car under his portico,to welcoming us inside his house for welcoming drinks chocolates and making us feel AT HOME AWAY FROM HOME. Spectacular location . Guests can play ping pong. Barbecue and shisha ( Hubble bubble ) can be arranged on request. Wonderful Jordanian breakfast on a platter. And absolute privacy all throughout. Safety ensured as it's next to an army camp. The rooms are huge most of them with balcony overlooking the river dam . Backdrop is scintillating whether it's night or day. A must for all visitors to Jordan. The strategic advantage of this property is it's proximity to UMM QAIS - PELLA which should be on your bucket list while in the land of the nabaeteans. Let me also share that I had a dead car battery other day of my departure and the way he sorted everything was remarkable . It was eid and so difficult to find a mechanic. But he did over the top offered us lunch and didn't leave us in the lurch. God bless him and his family for taking care of mine family. I am really indebted....
Read moreWe had a very pleasant stay. Mr Murshed is a retired colonel from the jordan armed forces. He is very knowledgeable and fun to talk too. He has a home next door and built a motel in the adjoining property. We drove into the motel. He very kindly invited us into his home and gave us water. He then showed us our room which is very comfortable with TV and air conditioning. The bathroom has good plumbing and a shower. You should bring shampoo and conditioner. The views from the balcony are breathtaking. There is a dam with a river flowing. The sunset is gorgeous. Right next door are sheep and goats. He has a beautiful garden with lemons and pomegranates trees. We also played ping pong. Due to ramadan dinner is not available he offered to cook for us. You should definitely take him up on the offer. We didnt want to bother him so he drove us into town and we picked up chicken and rice. He is very and helpful. In the morning he gave us a lovely breakfast and we took off. He accepted dollars in payments. Definitely recommend...
Read moreThe hotel is in a remote place and is run buy a family. There is no staff. You have to go to their house and ring a bell for anything or else contact them on whatsapp. The view of the dam from the room is beautiful but it does not make up for the issues we had. Our booking said, WiFi was available everywhere but unfortunately there was no WiFi signal in our room or the lobby outside. Being far away from home and in such a remote place we wanted to contact our family but we were told the internet signal was down due to Eid which is hard to believe because the WiFi was working fine in their house. The liquid hand soap in the toilet was mixed with water. The Ac was good and the bed was comfortable. The breakfast was also very good. The hotel is very expensive(as expensive as any good hotel in Amman). Overall it was a good experience. My advise to the hotel owner: You have to provide WiFi, telephone to contact reception/you, soap, shampoo and other basic amenities after charging so...
