Reviews and Ratings
The riad is authentically Moroccan and spotlessly clean, offering friendly staff and a convenient location close to many attractions. However, the water temperature can be a bit cold, and the WiFi may not be consistent. It's not a luxury riad but still provides a comfortable stay.
I had a fantastic stay at the hotel! The rooms were spotless, cozy, and beautifully decorated. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, even though we had a language barrier, they made sure everything was perfect. The location was ideal, close to all the action but away from the noise. The dining experience was delicious and varied daily. The facilities were top-notch, providing a truly enjoyable experience.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant. The rooms, although a bit unkempt, were spacious, comfortable, and clean despite the odd cockroach, which I learned are pretty common in hot climates. The service, especially from the staff of the riad next door, was very friendly and helpful even though we didn't speak the same language. The location was excellent, just a short walk away from all the historical places I wanted to visit. The dining experience around a basic theme was good, although limited to pastries and breads with coffee. Overall, it's not a luxury riad but a decent choice for its value.
