Great Stay for Travellers
The staff was amazing at this hostel, they are very open and give you insight into what to watch out for whilst in Amman, the room is what you pay for and I’d definitely say it’s for travellers wanting to spend more time exploring the city than lounging in the hotel.

Friendly folks in a great location
These guys are always super friendly, and the location is great in the heart of downtown Amman. Budget travelers looking for a reliable basic accommodation should definitely stay here.

the only good thing was the location
old rooms, smelly and cranky beds, and a bathroom which require a full refurbish. Invest a bit more and go somewhere else...

Hotel is old and grungy, needs to be updated - ancient tv didn’t work, ac/heater didn’t work, bed frame was broken, bed was old and saggy, bathroom too grungy for me to want to shower. The internet worked really well.
The staff were very nice and the breakfast was also good.

Good budget option in the center of Amman.
Nice budget place that is close to all the main sites in Amman. Easy walk to both the Roman theater and the Citadel. Really yummy Jordanian style breakfast and super friendly staff. Came back for a second stay after going to Petra before leaving Jordan.

On a quiet back street right in downtown
Stayed here for 5 nights. Great location - right in the heart of downtown/city center but on a back street that is relatively quiet. The hotel staff were fabulous. Very helpful and friendly. Good firm mattress.
The bathrooms need to be upgraded. You will have to carry your luggage up a flight of stairs to reach the lobby. There is an elevator there on.
Will definitely stay here again on my next trip to Amman.

Great location
It's a location across the street from the gate to Petra. It was a snow storm when I was there but I would imagine the view off of the roof restaurant would be amazing.

Cheap, not cheerful
It's fine to crash at a cheap and simple hotel for a night, but our room was not clean. The staff were helpful with guidance for getting to our next destination.

no hot water and very dirty
We had no hot water during our stay and found the staff to be unsympathetic, until the last morning when one of them turned on the water heaters!!
The room was small and grotty, the whole place stank of cigarette smoke, and the staff smoked whilst guests were eating breakfast, in the lift, whilst cleaning the rooms, basically non-stop, I would not recommend this hostel for others.

you can find better
For the price of a double you can find much better. Beds had no upper sheets, only a blanket so it didn't feel clean. The onsuite toilet was tiny and practically in the room. Breakfast was poor. However, location wise if you need a place downtown it is in the hub on a quiet road. Overall disappointing.

Great & cheap but not best location
Farah hotel staff were so friendly and helpful. I was really impressed with the cleanliness of the rooms. I wasn't too keen on the area however. Our driver found it difficult to find and the neighbourhood was a bit rough (we were 2 girl travellers). I would definitely still recommend this hostel if you want to stay in this part of the city.
