Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We enjoyed our stay. The property and our room was gorgeous and the staff were very helpful. The Moroccan breakfast is large and delicious. It’s located just outside the Medina walls but within walking distance in a safe neighbourhood. Do get the airport transfer and porter to make your arrival more seamless. We would stay here again.
