Murshed Motel

Amazing host, beautiful location, best dinner we had in our whole holiday. Really relaxing and pleasant stay.

No problems at all.

The owner was very very hospitable. We were offered a family-style dinner which was a nice and cozy way to get to know the rest of the guests and the host. The breakfast in the morning with the view was fantastic.

A little too much nature for a person living in the suburbs. The dogs were barking through the night. The mules/donkeys were loud as well. The rooster started at 3 am. Except for the noise level, everything else was just perfect. I would recommend this as a beautiful place to overnight as long as you are prepared for an extra dose of nature.

We got the best room with the grand view of the reservoir and the surrounding mountains which we enjoyed tremendously! Moreover, the owner invited us to his house, where we had interesting talks about lots of topics, among these about Islam, the Palastinian-Jordan- Israeli relation, about life in Jordan. We loved the Jordan breakfast and dinner, loved to meet his sons and the other guests while having tea. The owner recommended us a way along the Israeli border on our way to the archeological site Umm Qais - an educating experience! All in all, the 2 days we stayed passed much too quickly. We will not forget our stay, an authentic experience which we recommend!

Zaccaria and his son Hamza were son friendly, they spent the whole evening giving us information about Jordan culture. We have a wonderfull evening and the diner was delicious. Thanks for your frienship.

Zacharia, the owner, is really friendly and welcoming. We sat in his home, chatted, and he kindly offered us tea. The following morning, there was a lovely traditional Jordanian breakfast, and again, Zacharia was around, and I enjoyed another chat with him. The room is huge, although fairly basic compared to several places I stayed whilst in Jordan. I was offered an evening meal option. Lovely view over the dam/reservoir.

Sadly, I slept very badly, as there are many wild dogs in the vicinity, and they barked loudly throughout the night. I didn't experience this problem in other rural locations in Jordan, despite there being lots of dogs everywhere I went. It is not the fault of the owner, but it is worth mentioning for the benefit of future travellers.

It was a very nice stay with Zacharia in his house. we had a fantastic view to the little dam. The homemade dinner was delicious.
