Murshed Motel

Irbid

Zachariah and his family go to great lengths to make their guests feel at home - in fact this is more of a homestay than a motel. The view is amazing, overlooking a man made lake with hills on the far side. The atmosphere is quite rural. Eating traditional Jordanian dinner in the family house is a great privilege. The rooms are spacious and share the same view across the valley. The facilities in the rooms are adequate. Breakfast on the terrace is likewise very adequate. The hotel gives very reasonable value for money.

Very friendly hotel

If you are looking for a quiet place to relax looking over the reservoir, mountain, olive grove, and sheep and goat herders with nice sun and great hospitality from the owner Zechariah than this is the place for you.  Keep in mind there are no shops or restaurants within walking distance, which I loved but you may not.  Since I did not have a car, Zechariah offered to make dinner for me, which was a feast for a very reasonable price.  If you want to layout and get some sun you can do that here too and most rooms have a private balcony as well.  Rooms were very clean and the breakfast was great and healthy.  The other guest were very nice too and I found watching the herders taking out and bringing in the sheep and goats to be very relaxing as well.  There is also a park by the reservoir you can go to for 1.5 dinar to relax or watch the birds.  Migrations of birds stop here in September I was told.  I hope to come again and see Zechariah again.

This was the most memorable experience ever! Being able to be part of this family for one day, knowing more about their culture, believes and religion made us want to know more and more. The Al-Omari family is funny and hospitality is their aim. We truly recommend for all tourists to be accommodate here at least for one day to be part of the locals.
Apart from this, the food we tasted, the room with a breathtaking view as well as the long talk after dinner was absolutely incredible!
THANK YOU Mr. Zacaria and the boys! 

MUST GO before leaving Jordan!

This is a wonderful place to stay in Northern Jordan. Our hosts were very attentive and seemed genuinely interested in talking to us about all sorts of subjects in the warm evenings. We were made makluba which we ate with the family. It’s a great base for striking off to some of main archaeological sites. 
It’s taken me far too long to get round to writing this review!

Wonderful place, great hosts

Lovely view. Room was a bit mismatched but clean and spacious. A small kitchenette but no cooking facility. Shower curtain did not fit so bathroom floor would get wet. The dogs in the sheep pen next door might have been a problem during the night but they weren't. Lovely to stay with a family and have a good discussion over dinner. The owner had forgotten that we had requested dinner. There were three families in so he sent out for dinner. It was pizza, chips and KFC and they made soup. So we were fed.

Lovely welcome. Comfortable stay

The hotel is in a remote place and is run buy a family. There is no staff. You have to go to their house and ring a bell for anything or else contact them on whatsapp. The view of the dam from the room is beautiful but it does not make up for the issues we had. Our booking said, WiFi was available everywhere but unfortunately there was no WiFi signal in our room or the lobby outside. Being far away from home and in such a remote place we wanted to contact our family but we were told the internet signal was down due to Eid which is hard to believe because the WiFi was working fine in their house. The liquid hand soap in the toilet was mixed with water. The Ac was good and the bed was comfortable. The breakfast was also very good. The hotel is very expensive(as expensive as any good hotel in Amman). Overall it was a good experience. My advise to the hotel owner: You have to provide WiFi, telephone to contact reception/you, soap, shampoo and other basic amenities after charging so much. Thank you.

Good

We had a very pleasant stay. Mr Murshed is a retired colonel from the jordan armed forces. He is very knowledgeable and fun to talk too. He has a home next door and built a motel in the adjoining property. We drove into the motel. He very kindly invited us into his home and gave us water. He then showed us our room which is very comfortable with TV and air conditioning. The bathroom has good plumbing and a shower. You should bring shampoo and conditioner. The views from the balcony are breathtaking. There is a dam with a river flowing. The sunset is gorgeous. Right next door are sheep and goats. He has a beautiful garden with lemons and pomegranates trees. We also played ping pong. Due to ramadan dinner is not available he offered to cook for us. You should definitely take him up on the offer. We didnt want to bother him so he drove us into town and we picked up chicken and rice. He is very and helpful. In the morning he gave us a lovely breakfast and we took off. He accepted dollars in payments. Definitely recommend to stay here.
