Amman Trail Hotel & Studios
I had a good stay here on my last night in Jordan. The location is perfect to see the main sights. I wish I had 2 days there actually. The room was clean and the wifi was good. No complaints except maybe the smoke smell in hallways. The staff were friendly though.

Amman Pasha Hotel DOWNTOWN
Free parking on the street if you're lucky. Wifi internet is very slow. Have to go to reception area to get wifi. The breakfast is traditional Arabia food. The hotel just near the Roman Theatre. Lots of small restaurateurs around the hotel.
