Petra, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room was clean, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The bathroom could use some improvement—specifically more hooks and repair work where a hook had fallen off the door. We did have a minor issue with housekeeping plugging in alarm clocks in both our room and the adjacent empty room, which woke us up twice. On the plus side, the on-site parking is convenient, though the spaces are quite tight and not ideal for larger vehicles.
