A good economy class hotel. We took it with breakfast: very limited choice, the same thing every day. There is a chance to lose weight! :-))
The rooms are clean. On the rooftop with a swimming pool, you can swim, have lunch/dinner, enjoying the views of the coast.

We spent one day three years ago at the end of December, and even then by accident. And it turned out that after a week's rest in another hotel and after an hour-long delay of the plane, we were brought to this hotel. Moreover, we were unlucky with the room and we were first placed in a room in which no one had lived for a long time (there was a smell of mustiness and lack of grooming). I insisted on changing the room, even though we were assured that there were no available rooms. The hotel itself is for three, but the sea is nearby, there is a rooftop pool with sun beds and a bar, and table tennis. Well, the rooms reminded me of a communal apartment. Cleanliness is far from normal, service is below average, wi-fi is only available at the reception. Resume-for a day or two- it is possible, no more.

Despite the fact that the router was hanging in the corridor of the 3rd floor above the entrance to my room, there was no Internet. I've been dealing with the problem at the reception for 5 days. First, they sent a teenager who clicked three light switches in the common corridor to reboot the router - it did not help. After that, I lifted him up and he rebooted the router in a human way, i.e. off-on power supply on the case. It didn't help either. Later, when I went into the router settings, I saw that it was working in repeater mode, but I did not dig into the crooked settings. Later, I tried a couple more times to invite the sysadmin, who is outsourced at the hotel, but in response there were grins and "blah blah blah". As a result, I used the Internet, going out on the roof of the hotel or in the lobby.
No one swims in the pool. The water is cold, but they can heat it for extra money. In the same place, coffee can be made by the pool for 2 dinars. But on the street, to the right of the exit, there is excellent coffee for only 50 piastres (ask about it, say hello!))).
Get ready for the fact that you have to beg for toilet paper, a hair dryer, glasses (there are none, but there is a kettle), etc. There are no chairs in the room, and there is also a table. It will be replaced by a mini cooler. There is only one towel per person in the room. They, like the bed, were not changed once in 8 days, the garbage was not taken out, the room was not cleaned. If you make a polite request about it, then how lucky you will be. But they will start greeting through their teeth, or they will turn away altogether. The night light was without a plug. If you like dim lights in the evening, then be careful when plugging bare wires into an outlet. By the way, there are three types of them in the room and not all are suitable even for the hotel's electrical appliances. The view from the window was of a wasteland littered with scrap metal and empty plastic containers.
The breakfast is poor. Despite the fact that Aqaba is located in Sinai, like Sharm El Sheikh, fruits are not included in the menu. and street layouts do not abound with them. If you still decide to go on a trip, take a ticket without dinner, so as not to choke on cold chicken. The trip will also turn you away from boiled eggs for a long time.
One could find solace in a beach holiday, but there the sand is granite chips in equal proportion with cigarette butts and various husks (seeds, nuts) left by the aborigines. They are cleaned up on the beach, but only what is bigger than a crumpled pack of cigarettes. You can still get used to the sand, but no one can get used to the fact that men of all ages come, sit down nearby and begin to openly take pictures of the bodies of European women in swimsuits. The palefaces huddle together, but the Arabs crowd them anyway. Personally, I chased a couple away: the first one sat down uninvited on my mat when I was swimming. The second one lay down with his back on the beach bag. Right next to her, a woman was indignant that a third stood on her flip-flops and crushed her feet (I myself was restrained, and she called the offender a brute)) . A day later, I was forced to contact a beach policeman due to the fact that a small swimming area is surrounded by floats, but this does not prevent the locals from placing catamarans and motorboats in it. I was angry when they started the engine on the boat and started shouting at my compatriot who was floating next to me about 6 years old. He started to sail away, but there a couple of locals on a catamaran yelled at him and waved their hands. This has already prompted the mother to rush to the child's aid, pick him up and carry him ashore. The policeman, smiling, said in English that there was nothing dangerous...
This is the country of the Jordanians and it's not for me to set the rules there, but I don't set foot there anymore. I don't think the tourism business will be able to flourish there. There are only two of the excursions (Petra, Wadi Rum) and at fabulous prices, despite widespread statements: "Are you from Russia? I have a special price for you!" After that, for 7 dinars (700 rubles), they can take you on an old boat with a transparent bottom 25 meters from the shore to admire a three-meter deep))) I took a mask and a snorkel with an abundance, swam there in 30 seconds - there is absolutely nothing to see. There are very few corals and fish (in number and species) and they are all faded.
P.S. I did not tell everything that angered. I wrote a review at the suggestion of Yandex, a week after my return, so I forgot a lot, but I definitely recommend choosing another country for a vacation. Do not think that inconveniences will pass you by.
