    The room smells not good and was dark. The location didn’t meet my expectation.

    The Riad was generally nice. The host was kind and friendly.

    A Beautiful Home in Central Saĺé Medina

    Take something warm if you're watching the sunset from the roof garden in the autumn or winter..Expect fog. It's beautiful to watch it roll in from the Atlantic, but have your supper under canvas in the atmospheric longe on the roof to keep warm in winter or cool in summer. I had to work online while staying here, and the lounge was a very comfortable workspace with good Internet. You can't do this from your room. The rooms are excellent for resting and sleep, not work. If you can, choose a room without exterior windows for the best night's sleep, especially if you are a light sleeper. Exterior windows let in light, but also some noise. I slept wonderfully. Perfect.

    In the heart of the ancient walled city of Salé, this historic riad has great views of Rabat and Kasbah Oudayas. Enjoy the sunset from the rooftop garden and lounge area. The rooms are beautiful, and the owner is very hospitable. I strongly recommend eating in at night at least once; the food is stellar! You won't regret it. And make time for a good Moroccan breakfast, too. A La Belle Étoile is centrally located, and easy to get to by taxi from Rabat Airport (use the small yellow taxis) or from Salé Train Station. The little shopping streets of Salé and the market, the beach with its fish market, and the Bouregreg Marina are all in easy walking distance, as is the tram into the central Rabat. You will find plenty to enjoy. I' prefervthis location to Rabat across the water. I'm definitely coming back.

    the beds were rock hard, at nighttime the location can be quite dodgy, we felt a bit uncomfortable and alienated the whole time

    the views of sale and Rabat were lovely especially at night

    The rusty and hard-to-close windows and doors, the lights which were not working outside our entrance door, the very strong smell of drainage in the toilet, the moldy curtain in the shower, being charged 7€ / person for breakfast in Morocco, which is way overpriced! Overall, it felt like being in a hostel and we felt that what we paid was too much for what we’ve got.

    The view on the Kasbah of the Oudayas.

    This Riad feels stopped in time. I gorgeous, it makes you wonder continuously about it’s past… Is one of the most beautiful riad I had the pleasure to stay. Very high cealings, beautiful tile work that feels like the original one. We also liked that thanks to this Riad we discovered Sale. I’m glad it was affordable enough to see how beautiful this building is.

    A bad experience in Riad la belle etoile

    The place, very basic room, a surelevated mattress on the floor, you had to climb to the matress, it was on the ground floor, very noisy, nothing inside the room, no tables, no TV, no wifi and now AC, not even a fan, the air was sticky lack of ventilation, very humid, 1 or 2 silverfishes, mold inside the bathroom. The owner, a French is disagreable. There is no restaurant in this place, and no hamman or massage place, no AC's in the rooms, you have to climb 3 flights of steep stairs from the groundfloor to the rooftop in order to have wifi. All in all a bad experience. Sale is rundown under construction.
