The owner’s description is very misleading.

The bad: The Booking.com description is very misleading. Toilets smell of faeces. There is no pool or anything like it, just an enclosed gravel parking lot. The heat pump doesn’t heat. The walls of the structure are thin, like a shed. The neighbourhood had construction noises at 6:30am. There is no wi-fi. No TV. There were no towels (because of covid said the owner). He said he’d bring some but did not. There is only one sheet on the bed, under you, so your skin touches the blanket. Price was high, but most places nearby were even higher. What was notable was how little you get for your money. The description really must be changed, it is incorrect in so many ways. The good: The room is big. The kitchen had pots and pans and cooking stove. Parking was inside the locked gated compound. There were two blankets. There were not too many roaches or mosquitoes. Very close to trailheads. Cafe a 15 min walk uphill.

Simple, undisturbed spot right next to some great trail heads

The place is great for those embarking on the balcony walk (starts ~100m away) or ascending Jebel Shams (starts ~1000m away). There is a 5G mast ~200m away, so if you have a plan with lots of data, you'll get a great connection.
