    Trying to locate the road can be difficult and walking from the main bus stop is 5 Mins

    The road itself is amazing, cozy and the terrace has an awesome view. The breakfast is also good. No complaints at all.

    Honestly Nothing. It was a little hard to find when we arrived.

    We enjoyed our stay in this riad a lot. Their Moroccan hospitality is incredible. Very nice and welcoming hosts. Very nice, bright but authentic interior and a rooftop with an astonishing view over the roofs of the Medina especially in the evening. Also very affordable. I would recommend this riad to everybody who looks for good price performance and welcoming hospitality!!! Always again!

    Despite what's stated on booking, I couldn't pay with card in the property. It took me a long time to get cash and the cash was expensive to get from the ATM. So that was a bit of a bummer.

    Really nice stay and very nice staff. The Riad is beautiful and I felt really safe and good at the place. it's easy to connect with people there. The room was beautiful and bed was comfy. It's very quiet there, which is a great contrast with the busy Marrakech

    Only downside was that the AC didn't blow warm air so our room was very cold. Also the bed was quite hard.

    The riad was beautiful, clean and cozy. Staff was nice and helpful.

    Located in the Medina within a walking distance from the Jemaa el-Fna main square. Behni, who runs it, came and collected us from where our taxi driver dropped us (1-2mins walking distance) as it’s not approachable by vehicle and the Medina is like a maze. We arrived late at night (22.30) and although we hadn’t made a reservation, after requesting food upon arrival, we were served the most delicious chicken and olives Tagine (picture) and chicken pastilla. Very clean and tidy and the staff friendly and helpful.

    Beautiful Riad! Very friendly staff. Breakfast was okay. Location was very good and central. But in the evening the narrow street which is leading to the Riad is very dark and poor lightened. To keep in mind if you are traveling alone and get frightened quickly.

    The area smells like cats food and poop a bit. But nothing the hotel can do. Not their fault..

    you don't get a key for the front door. so sometimes you have to wait a couple of minutes until the staff is back from the grocery, etc. to get in or out.

    nice hosts, super helpful staff, nice furniture and an amazing terace. we did not have dinner or breakfast. location is great.

    They can consider adding one bright light per room alongside with dimmed lights. However, that's not a dealbreaker for me.

    Centrally located. Clean room. Mehdi was very helpful and friendly. Always available day or night. Top service from him. We stayed in the suite. Spacious room at reasonable price.

    Air conditioning right above my bed which made it tricky to sleep as too hot without it.

    Dris was an awesome host and very welcoming. Extremely good value for 3 of us sharing a room. Air conditioned room, good food, close to everything you’d want to see/do & quiet. Beautiful roof terrace where we played cards in the evening. Small pool on ground floor was lovely particularly as we were there at end of June

    They were doing construction work on the property when we were staying which meant we weren’t really able to use the terrace. Beds could be a little more comfortable.

    The staff were extremely friendly and went out of there way to help us organise taxis and even made us an incredible dinner one night of our stay. The room was large and very clean. Great location, about a 10 minute walk into the Medina which means it’s very peaceful and away from the crowds. Would definitely stay here again.

    - The water in the next night when there were more guests was cold, making it hard to take a shower after a long day in the middle of May when it’s still a bit cold at night. - It’s located deep in the complicated Old town so if you arrive late on the first day, some local people could try to lead you to your stay and ask for money which is not worth your wallet and your mental health like us two girls. —> You can try to arrive in daytime which can avoid some incidents and you can have a better feel of the area, then it doesn’t feel that bad. —> Taxi cannot go too deep into the Old town so as soon as your taxi drop you off, just follow Google Maps and don’t let any local “help” you. If you have a local sim, put it in your phone and contact the staff (they use WhatsApp as well) so they can guide you to the place.

    - Very nice and helpful staffs, you can communicate with them through Google translate if needed as some of them don’t speak English. - The room looks exactly like the photos with traditional design and decorations. - The water in the first night when we were the only guest was warm and had good pressure. —> You can consider booking this place preferably not in travelling season. - Breakfast was nice with different traditional cakes/bread, jam, butter and some kind of syrup; orange juice and coffee. - Mornings were peaceful with birds singing and trees everywhere in the beautiful common space.

    As far as commodities go, the room had two cracks in the paint and the sounproofing of the restroom didn't leave much to the imagination (generally a problem in Morocco). As far as location is concerned, even though central, it was in a location that felt rather unsafe during the night, especially after the doors in Medina closed. We advise any visitors not to arrive in the middle of the night as we did, as it could end up costing them dearly.

    The staff was incredibly helpful, kind and always at our service. Salim (the night keeper of the Riad) even went beyond his professional duties when helping us and made us feel like we were his dear friends. The breakfast was lovely and the inner garden of the Riad would even bring chirping little friends (birds). Overall the Riad's common rooms were excellent. The Riad was located centrallycentrally which was convenient for saving time.
