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.

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.
