Guest reviews for Extra Traveller
"The owner is SUPER clean- no shoes in the hostel but he will provide slippers. They will check showers after a guest showers to clean up if needed. They are also super honest and reliable people who really look out for their guests. There are wall sockets and a dim light in every bed with a privacy curtain. The bunk beds are really sturdy so the bed doesn’t shake if someone climbs up. I would suggest doing extracurricular activities such as scuba diving for wrecks and whatnot with the tours and companies they suggest- they throughly research the companies they use to make sure guests will have a top tier experience. I used another scuba dive shop and ended up having issues with the company which was only resolved with the extra travelers owners help. Thank you again Anas for the help!"

"The staff, the place everything was perfect His father is so sweet, he was so welcoming, I enjoyed staying there ❤️"

"Clean clean clean. Honestly for a hostel dorm that is the main important thing. The beds with the curtains provide some welcome privacy and the air conditioning is a rare luxury for a hostel. The owner is very friendly and helpful. He has an extensive network of contacts and set up my trip and stay in Wadi Rum with a couple of Beduins guides who are very welcoming but less adept at marketing their accommodations online. Good hostel for socializing when full."

"Actually it was my first time in a hostel and it felt home to me , everyone is friendly even the people who stay with you , an experience I recommend to do !"

"Everything! Bed was very comfortable and private with curtain - even though it was hot outside, turning on the ceiling fan was more than enough. The location is just about 10-15 minutes walk to the beach - the hosts Anas and his brother Seif were so friendly, accomodating, kind and you just really felt like at home. Homemade breakfast was also delicious and the best thing was the full-equipped kitchen where you can make your own meal."
"I wish I could have stayed longer."
"Coziness of the place that almost feels like home."
"It's like a home-stay where every step is measured and could get a little noisy as the premises has less sound-proofing."
"Very good time here, thank you for the staff Anas for being so kindly. Great location, very clean and close to everything. Good breakfast. I strongly recommend this."

"The owner, Annas, is a great host. He can arrange everything for you and he is super friendly. Hr arranged my snorkel trip, a boat cruise, and he gave a tour around Amman at night. He also gave food food recommendations. The female dorm was clean. They clean the shared bathrooms regularly too. There are some lockers outside the room but there weren't many people staying so I didn't use them."

"Amazing hostel!! The owner is so so kind. The breakfast is homemade everyday and absolutely delicious (I almost never like hotel breakfasts). The WiFi is also great! Good enough to work remotely although it was a bit patchy a few days! Maybe need backup for an important video call but outside of that was able to work no problems! Great location! Wadi rum tour booked through them was awesome!! Highly highly recommend!"

Veerle Petra inbox Hostel
"We were welcomed like royalty! The hosts are so incredibly kind, offered us tea and water throughout our stay, and anytime we had a request they were more than accommodating. They helped us with planning our trip into Petra, gave us insider tips, and the breakfast and dinner were delicious! I highly recommend staying here. It is so cool being able to stay in the bedouin village and being so close to petra. The view was also magnificent- We could see Petra from the window! As for the room itself, everything is brand new and works well, absolutely zero complaints!"

The breakfast was traditional and very tasty, giving a great local touch to the experience. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Wadi Musa. Excellent location next to the bus station."
