Room was clean, modern, great bathroom, toilet was new. safe, quiet, had french balcony. Great Heat & AC. Breakfast was good with lots of options, elevators ran smoothly, helpful staff. Had to arrange a taxi, and they took care of that with ease. Very quick check in. Had a list of hotel rules that were odd. Location was perfect, close to the souk, and to the beach. Loved my stay as a solo woman traveler.

We have spent two nights at Captain hotel in Aquaba. Overall it was a comfortable big room, friendly staff, good breakfast. We used a swimming pool once, it was a little small and deep but good to cool down. Good value for your money, so we would recommend it.

Hotel un po' vecchio stile ma accogliente e pulito. Molto carino l'ingresso. Gli infissi poco isolanti, e la sera per strada c'è movida. Bagno un po' piccolo. Ottimo rapporto però qualità/prezzo e posizione perfetta nella strada forse più carina di tutta Aqaba.

De accomodatie ligt goe in het centrum. Het wordt omschreven als een boutique hotel maar was eigenlijk vooral oud en gedateerd interieur. Het ontbijt was in een troosteloze zaal die er wat viezig uitzag.

Great value no matter how you slice it

Nice place. Great location. Friendly staff. My only beef is the dumb role about not allowing guests to bring food in. Use your overpriced minibar? Thanks but no thanks. Why ruin the otherwise great qualities of the hotel? Breakfast is good and the nice staff working their are super and sweet.

Redelijk goed hotel, de locatie is fantastisch. Het personeel is super vriendelijk. De badkamer is klein, en eigenlijk was de douche waardeloos. Zoeken naar een straal water. Het ontbijt was goed, en voldoende keus
