Coup de coeur

Excellent rapport qualité prix Un véritable coup de cœur pour l’AYA Hostel à Médine ❤️ Une propreté irréprochable, ça fait vraiment plaisir ! L’emplacement est top : à seulement 15 minutes à pied de la Mosquée du Prophète ﷺ… et chaque pas compte, c’est que du bonus : des hassanettes en plus 🙏✨ Le personnel est d’une gentillesse incroyable, toujours souriant et à l’écoute. Mention spéciale pour la kheima, ce salon façon toile de tente du désert, tellement stylé et apaisant, un vrai coin chill à la vibe saharienne 🏜️🕌 L’hostel est aussi super bien situé, proche de toutes les commodités, que ce soit pour manger, faire quelques courses ou se poser tranquillement. Un grand merci à toute l’équipe pour l’accueil et les services. Qu’Allah vous récompense et vous facilite dans cette belle mission 🤲🏼🌙 Je recommande les yeux fermés !
