We booked a Family Room as a couple. The room is amazing - very clean, very modern, own bathroom. Free parking next to it, close to Petra by foot. The host is unmatched by his kindness! He loves to get in touch with his customers and exchange about cultural differences alongside very good tea - he also likes to invite people to his family’s wedding, sadly there wasn’t one around the time we stayed :( For extra payment he prepares breakfast, lunch or dinner - we had an amazing breakfast at 6 a.m. (time can be discussed with him), a perfect start for our long journey through Petra! It was a pleasure staying at your place my friend! Best regards Sandro 🇦🇹

The property is located 6.5 km from Petra Church, 6.6 km from High Place of Sacrifice and 6.6 km from The Great Temple.

The property was very clean. Also close proximity to Petra. The walking distance is around 15 mins. Located in the heart of the city. Good restaurants and local market around. Since I was a solo traveller, I was quite worried about being scammed. However, the host helped me around with local shopping, ensured I did not get scammed with tourist tax. He was kind! Also, he’s a great cook. Very reliable in that sense. I didn’t feel worried at all. 10/10 recommend staying at Z Hostel. Ps. He also manages Wadi Rum tours. Pps. The host is also a great calligrapher (:

    One of the best hostel I’ve stayed in lately for a very affordable price. Pool and nice outside area, good coffee(if the right person prepares it), everything clean, very cool desert style rooftop with amazing view and on top of this all such a cute and loving dog to cuddle with.

    This is a great stay for those traveling on a budget. The value for money is good! Not a 5-star hotel obviously but a safe and clean stay close to many restaurants. The host Waleed was very helpful and flexible throughout my stay. I was traveling solo (F) but I felt secure.

    We came very early to the facilty and the room we booked was already full, but thanks to Ziyad he offered us a better room in his second hostel without no extra charge. He and his staff were very friendly, The hostel is located in the center of the city with a walking distance to Petra Visitor center, location is very safe and there are several stores and restaurants around.

    Great location for the family, good contact with the host, amazing food (dinner), we loved the stay, the kids did not want to leave :) . The apartment is located in the upper city, and you have great views for Wadi Musa. You need 4 min drive to get to the center or 6 min to get to Petra entrance. The host and his family are very helpful and hospitable. We spent 3 nights during winter time (quite cold outside), but A/C in the rooms kept us very warm. Last thing - the neighborhood is very calm and safe.

    It’s a very good budget hostel to stay in Wadi Musa. just 1.5 km walk from Petra reception centre. All best residents are nearby. Money exchange is 4 minutes walk. The owner/manager is wonderful and very helpful. Volunteer helps, as like as staff. I strongly recommend this hostel for the best stay in Wadi Musa.
