Guests consistently praise the hotel's unbeatable location, right next to the visitor center and practically at the entrance to Petra, making visits convenient. Many have been upgraded to spacious, clean rooms that provide effective air conditioning after a day of exploring. The Cave Bar offers a unique atmosphere, and although some found the bar's opening hours a bit late, the availability of a breakfast buffet and options for light dinners on the patio are generally well-received.
