    Lovely Riad, excellent to get a feel of the true Marroc spirit. Rooms are not brilliant but they do it just fine. The location is also good you are 5mins away from the main souks and main square ( if it's not crowded). The host , Ahmed is a legend, ultra nice guy who receive us with a lovely mint tea and some pastries, and also told us a few must visit places and also some tricks to deal with some less friendly maroc guys around the turist area.

    The bathroom only had a cloth curtain- non proper door. It was difficult to get taxis to go further.

    It was a clean and comfortable place at the heart of the Medina. We could walk to a lot of places. Breakfast was very good.

    Some things could be updated a bit - the bathroom and the locks on the doors. The breakfast was a bit skimpy, not the best we've had.

    Comfortable and good location (just outside the touristy part of the Medina, but close to most things), nice decorations.

    Only a curtain separated the bathroom from the bedroom which was fine but is good to know when deciding to book.

    The breakfast was amazing, definitely a highlight of the trip. The rooftop was also beautiful.

    The WiFi worked really well in reception, but didn't always reach the top floor in our room. Something to bear in mind if you do require a good connection. Breakfast is advertised from 8am, but on a couple of days we went down before 8:30 and there was no one around, so maybe let the staff know in advance if you have an early start. This is more of a courtesy to other guests, using the sun terrace between midnight - 2am, the metal stairs echo very loud into the room below, so please be considerate when moving around the Riad late at night. This was only an issue on one night, not a major problem if guests are mindful of others.

    Nice little Riad in a good location, 10 - 20 minute walk from most attractions in the Medina. But still quiet. Breakfast was a nice selection of Morrocan pastries/pancakes/bread, with juice & tea or coffee. The sun terrace was nice to relax on in the afternoon & see the sunset. The room was comfortable, a good size with private bathroom. (English speakers, be aware the hot tap on the shower, is the one with the letter "C".) The staff, especially Amal, were all really helpful in helping book activities and transport to/from the airport. My partner booked a Quad Bike experience to the desert & he loved it, highly recommend this tour. It also included a stop at an Argan Oil factory & local village.

    Location is amazing in an alley in the busy Medina. Staff is the most accommodating and friendly you will ever find. We just showed up and they planned our whole vacation - restaurants - walking tours - hike up Mt Toubkal and even our ride to Casablanca - amazing staff.

    I think the breakfast could be a little better: perhaps some protein like an omelette could be served and tea offered as well as coffee.

    I really felt at home home here. Majid was absolutely wonderful and made the stay special.

    The location of the riad is in a tight street. At first, you think thats a bit "dangerous", but then you realize is just fine and no problem at all.

    The riad is very cool. There is a lobby with a pool and tables and sofas to eat that is very nice. Upstairs theres places where you can chill and sunbath. The room is very clean, big bed, and the bathroom is big enough. You can feel very culture integrated. The best thing was the staff. Very cool, very helpful, with tips about what to do or not, and places to vist. Big props to the guy that attended us, I forgot is name, but he was very cool and kind. Thank you very much

    The property is very clean with beautiful Moroccan architecture throughout. There’s sun loungers on the terrace that could be used anytime of the day and your room has a built in air conditioning. The Riad isn’t too far from the centre of the Medina, which connects you easily to other parts of Marrakesh. The staff are great! Majid is a star makes you feel welcome from arrival to departure and looked after us well throughout. The service given is top and the breakfast is good.

    The little cute swimming pool saved our lives! We stayed on the hottest days in Marrakesh and we were able to cool down in the pool when the temperatures were extremely high. There was even a rooftop with beach chairs and parasols. The staffs were all very nice and helpful. The breakfast was good too. It’s located near many shops in the medina and going on sightseeing and tours was very accessible. Highly recommended!
