It is so shameful that this hotel is rated as 5 stars though in reality it won’t be rated more than 3! My current experience in this Ghost House is truly unbelievable and insanely shocking ! As per law, arrivals to Jordan should be quarantined in hotels for 14 days. I paid to stay at a 5 star hotel and to my surprise I witnessed and suffered from the followings:
1- There was a bat in the room !! Believe it or not ! It’s today that I heard squeaking and scratching noise behind the curtain; I got terrified and called the receptionist thinking it was a mouse . Ironically, when two of the staff came to check , it was a BAT ! In a 5 star hotel , a bat ! The reason for Corona virus !
2- the room is so unhygienic and filthy. Furniture is very poorly and badly maintained, spattered stains everywhere ( on the phone’s wire, electricity plug, toilet , doors, wardrobe , bed , etc.).
3- hot water is not available for shower all the time ! I complained two times and every time I had to wait for nearly two hours for hot water to be available !
4-The food is tasteless and not edible or well presented.
5-they leave the food on the floor ; by the time u take ur food it ll be already infected from all the germs spread on the floor’s carpet !
6- the mini fridge is just a preserving box ; you won’t be able to drink a really cold and refreshing water especially if u think of working out to kill time during the quarantine.
7- upon arrival, the toilet was dirty and it is very low maintained . I had to do the cleaning myself from day one and I used my own antiseptics and detergents .
8- the hotel does not provide any hygiene , antiseptics or proper medical soap . The norm is to at least have a hygiene bottle placed somewhere in the room !
9- Dirty pillows spattered with black mascara from the first day I arrived .
10- they serve you ONLY one 1.5 liter of fresh water everyday.
11- very old beds and dirty curtains .
I definitely don’t recommend this hotel to anyone who is thinking of being quarantined in it or even for a one day stay ! You might be the next victim of having a REAL BAT in your quarantine room.
One last thing, the staff are helpful people so as the front office receptionist. However, the administrative and operational upper management are the worst example of leadership as they should have been aware of all of the above catastrophic realities of this So- Called 5 star hotel !
