On property dining was excellent. The staff - Mahmood and Marwan- are excellent. They arranged us a wonderful guide - Mundir- who showed us the Madina. Marwan walked us to the taxi for the train station. Food was excellent. The Riad is a piece of art worth experience and living.

Great place to stay

Great hotel with helpful staff. They were able to make some phones calls for us and get us to the correct location due to the medina being a maze. Very accommodating and assisted us with taxi service, meals, and directions.

The owner, Rashid and his staff (Moustafa, Yousef) take care in making sure every part of your stay is perfect. They provide assistance with luggage, sightseeing, etc. Rashid even took care of our bags while we spent a night in Merzouga. Yousef helped us find a taxi on our departure which was fantastic. Restaurant Ouliya is also amazing. Best meal in Morocco so far

Beautiful Riad, with great wood carving and intricate tile work. Great breakfast with baguette, msemen, and beghrir as well as some protein (eggs, cured meat, cheese, and yogurt) to go with all the sugar (jams, honey, and juice). Aiyub "..from youtube" was quite a personality. The stairs are a bit tight going up but that most riads. In our room the TV didn't plug in and the bathroom was a bit odd (toilet separate room from sink and shower). But the beds were again beautifully carved bed frames. Very close to a Bank of Africa ATM and taxi stand which came in hand when we had to catch our train to Marrakesh.

We booked the last two rooms available in this Riad. They were both on the bottom floor, on either side of the dining area. The Riad could only be found with the help of a guide and there are very few restaurants or shops nearby. However, it initially seemed ok with pretty tiles in the entry and friendly staff. This opinion quickly changed when we saw our rooms. The bathrooms were disgusting, particularly one that had a broken toilet and was filthy and the other where the shower flooded. Both rooms smelt like a sewer. The rooms are located off the very noisy dining and kitchen areas, which were both in use till after midnight. We left after the first night. I can't comment on the other rooms, which might be ok.

Nous avions réservé pour 3 chambres et une fois sur place ils ont fait semblant que nous en avions réservé qu’une seule. Ils savaient depuis le matin qu’ils n’avaient qu’une chambre pour nous mais ont attendu que nous soyons sur place vers 21:30 pour nous aviser de la situation. Ils étaient bien au courant qu’à cette heure nous ne pourrions aller ailleurs. L’endroit est beau et bien situé, le personnel courtois et gentil mais sans gêne de vous faire payer pour ce que vous n’avez pas eu.

Terribile errore Negativi: -Check in di 30 min per venderci il loro menu (in euro e per la precisione 15) ed i loro tour (nonostante avvisati che conoscevamo la città). Passaporti non controllati (infatti dopo si sono permessi di chiedermi l’età e did dirmi che mentivo sul modulo), segno che potrebbe entrare chiunque -Stanza sbagliata e sporca: hanno dato la colpa ad Expedia che secondo loro aveva caricato delle immagini sbagliate e poi ci hanno detto che le foto non devono corrispondere alla realtà quando la stanza era stata data ad altri -acqua calda staccata finché non abbiamo avvisato -senza corrente dalle 21:30 alle 24ca il secondo ed ultimo giorno nel quale dovevamo fare le valigie per partire alle 2:30 -partenza alle 2:30 perché non ci volevano far prenotare un taxi prima -bugia sul fatto che potevamo prender solo taxi loro perché i pentite non vanno in aeroporto; pagato 6 volte il prezzo normale - sprecate ore ad aspettarli mentre risolvevano i problemi e poi si nascondevano facendo finta di lavorare Positivi: terrazza con bella vista
