Un accueil chaleureux et une vue superbe, mais un confort de couchage très spartiate.
Pros:

Dîner traditionnel très copieux et excellent petit-déjeuner (très bon rapport qualité-prix). L'emplacement en contrebas du village offre une vue magnifique. Nous avons aussi beaucoup apprécié la randonnée organisée avec Mohamed, le fils de Walid.

Cons:

Le logement est rustique. Malheureusement, le matelas était extrêmement dur et inconfortable. De plus, les chiens de berger aux alentours ont aboyé toute la nuit, ce qui a rendu le sommeil difficile. C’est peut-être un manque de chance, mais prévoyez impérativement de bons bouchons d'oreille au cas où.

Pros:

Der Sohn des Hauses hat uns ganz herzlich betreut. Wir haben ein sehr gutes Abendessen mit lokalen Speisen bekommen und der Ofen im Zelt war gut geheizt. Auch das Frühstück war sehr gut. Die Umgebung ist traumhaft.

Exceptional
Pros:

we want to thank you for the beautiful experience you offered us.
we are very simple people, looking for authentic places, and staying at your house was our most authentic experience.
we wish you good health and strength to continue the traditions of your places and good health to your children.
the experience with you was the most beautiful chapter of our story in Jordan.
the feeling I had when I left the room in the morning and saw the landscape that surrounded us took my breath away to the fullest.
we also want to tell you that you offered us the best breakfast I ate in Jordan, authentically traditional but also beautifully arranged on plates.
we are only sorry for the short time we had for this experience, but you are first on the list when we return.
thank you very much and for all

Pros:

My Grandfather's House is a beautiful place at the end of small village Dana run by owner Waleed. It's nicely decorated property with beautiful rooms and good facilities including free washing machine, as well as garden overlooking the mountains. Waleed provided us homecooked breakfast and dinner in the traditional style, and organised amazing hiking in the mountains. Everything is reasonably priced and we enjoyed staying at his guesthouse
