Reviews of Extra Traveller

. I had a wonderful stay at Extra Traveller Hostel. The place is clean, comfortable, and welcoming. Anas is an excellent host — I also joined him for a tour in Aqaba, which I highly recommend. He can help you organize the rest of your trip in Jordan as well; for example, he booked a fantastic camp for me in Wadi Rum. He’s very honest and always offers great value-for-money packages. Hostel is close to Jett bus station, pretty convenient.

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 friendly hostel, Anas and Saif are very kind. The breakfast was very delicious and fresh homemade . Wife was great and location is near to all places in Aqaba.

Nothing

This is the second time I've stayed at Extra-Traveler, and I would definitely come again. The hostel is super clean and comfortable, and Anas and Seif go out of their way to make you feel at home. There are two shared bathrooms which are always spotless, and the rooms are comfortable, and have outlets and AC/fans. They also often community events which are a lovely way to learn about Jordanian culture and get to know other travelers. The hostel is also located in a super convenient location- walking distance to most places and just a few minute walk to the JETT bus station. Highly highly recommend staying here.

Nothing.

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!

People were hospitable. The location is close to the bus station, it is very convenient.

Amazing location (near the JET bus office), lovely breakfast of falafel sandwiches, and the hosts are soooo lovely, warm, welcoming, and full of information. They keep the hostel quiet and clean and it's non-smoking and non-drinking so also feels very safe. Strongly recommend!

Beds were quite tough so just be prepared for that. Everything else is lovely, though!

Clean and friendly people

The place is lovely. The two brothers that manage the hostel or very nice and did everything to make my stay comfortable, offering tea and even sharing their own meal. They also cooked some pastries in the evening. I had the feeling that I was home and extended my stay. The rooms are quiet with AC, everything for a good sleep, especially if you are tired, as I was :).

Really clean and quiet. Very central location and also conveniently located next to the bus station too. The bed was SOOOOO comfortable. The female dorm was 5 beds but it felt so spacious. Breakfast was tasty. Also staff are lovely. I stayed here because I got the ferry from Nuewba, so I came to aqaba only two nights. Actually, I wished I'd stayed longer so that i could do some scuba diving here because it looks like a great place to do see some wrecks that are accessible and good for OWD level. The hostel can arrange this for you and they quoted a great price, honestly.

Nothing!

possible to order breakfast.

loved this hostel and the atmosphere

The hostel is pretty much what it promises. If a shared bathroom is not an issue for you, then go with it

Close to the Jett bus station and easy to walk to the beach and around town. Clean and comfortable. Soap and shampoo in the bathroom. Good breakfast. Anas works his butt off from morning to night. I don't know how he keeps track of everyone going and coming. For 105 JD, Anas picked me up in Petra, drove me to the Dead Sea where I could swim, then we returned to Aqaba. I think this was a lot of money but Anas did some nice things to make it worth it. We stopped at a falafel place where he bought us some really yummy falafel wraps. Then, when we came across a group of camels in the road, he stopped so that I could feed them some bread. All the time together in the car allowed me to ask a lot of questions about Jordan and it was really interesting.

I booked an overnight tour to Wadi Rum for 70JD and then found out that you can get it for 50JD. I asked Anas about it, and he said the tour company I was going with had a new vehicle. This wasn't correct as it was 20 years old. However, the tent camp was all very new. I loved the trip, so even if I overpaid, it was worth it. Also, Anas said we had to pay 8JD for a taxi to take us to Berenice Beach Club at South Beach. But I got there and found out that the beach club picks up and drops off for free! I would think Anas should know about this but maybe makes extra money on the taxis or at least his friends do. I knocked 1 star off for the above but overall, I'm super happy with everything I did through Anas and the hostel is really pleasant.

The front desk guy is very friendly.

Staff’s English was tough to understand for their staff.
