Clean hostel in an average location The hostel is clean, room (the one I stayed in anyway) is quite small. Location is at the edge of town in Wadi Musa. It takes about twenty minutes to walk downhill to the gate of the site. You won't want to walk uphill back to the hotel so it's about 1.5 or 2 JD to taxi it back there. One thing I must mention is that it is highly inadvisable to stay there without a booking through an online hostel site because they will charge you through the roof if you just walk in off the street. I was charged 18JD a night for a room there (for four nights) which is basically over 30USD a night, which is way way too much for what you're getting. If you happen to arrive in Wadi Musa without a booking, look elsewhere. However, the price they advertise online is reasonable for what you get.

Clean, Great, Fun, Knowledegable Staff, Great Location The Shara Mountains Hotel is located near the center of Wadi Musa. Good food, internet and entertainment are only a minute walk away. The brothers that run the place are lots of fun, always willing to answer questions, and always ready to make you laugh. Everyone there speaks great English along with a number of other languages. They are happy to stretch to make your Petra experience great. The rooms are simple and clean. The bathrooms are clean. Beds -- comfy, and the satellite TV offers three hundred-plus channels to entertain. Highly recommended!

Very nice, not expensive, cleen -- cool palce! We have spent there two nights. Not new, but just well renovated. Clean room and bathroom. Very hospitable stuff, ready for all request. Tasty breakfast. Probably unbeatable offer at this price (20JD [20eur] double room/night) for three-star hotel (not hostel) in Petra.
