    A very beautiful riad. But be careful on your way here since this riad is a bit hard to find and some people will offer you help but in the end they’ll ask for money.

    Nothing really

    This riad is very nice, in a good location and quite charming in its interiors. The room with the price bathroom was nice and had everything you needed. The staff is also very nice and happy to help and offer you tea!

    Some of the walls and ceiling could use a bit of freshening up, and it should be easier to join the property by phone.

    Oussama went above and beyond to help out the guests. He's the star of the team!

    It’s very hard to find at first, the instructions given by riad is not clear as google maps shows incorrect place. We had to walk around for a long time and ask in other riads. Also staff doesn’t reply on booking.com although they are always sitting at reception desk.

    The vibe is awesome inside (the pool, trees, relaxing music playing all the time), the staff is very helpful.

    Facilities and rooms are fairly basic but that was expected with the price. Took ages to get hot water in the shower and the airport transfer cost was very high compared to the price we paid to get into Marrakesh so I wouldn't recommend using the Riads taxi service.

    Excellent location for getting around Marrakesh and breakfast was freshly prepared and enjoyed by the family.

    Suppose to be 24-h check in, but i did not like the fact that they told me they might have canceled the booking with no show. Not easy to communicate via booking.

    1. Hot water takes some time to turn hot :)) 2. Room cleaning is done only upon request. 3. Hard to find without someone to guid you.

    1. Staff were very friendly and ready always to help. 2. Nice sweet breakfast. 3. Located in the proximity of all you need, including Dar Moah picking point for day trips. 4. Pick-up and drop off to and from airport (upon payment) 5. Comfortable beds. 6. Old school riad

    Rooms were small, Castro phobic. You can hear noises. Considering Riads are old buildings that's how they will be I guess. The rooms were a bit mucky smelling, which we got used to.

    The staff was very friendly and helpful-24hrs. Amazing pool, great breakfast. The initial impression was worrying but the staff made me feel comfortable. Having security personnel at the entrance of the lane made me feel comfortable at night. The location is amazing and walkable to all popular destinations.

    If they had tea/cofee making facilities in the room, it would have been better for me personally, but only a very minor critisism

    Enjoyed the stay, the staff were brilliant, friendly, helpful. The Riad is situated a short walk from the main square, Jemaa el Fna, with lots to see along the way!

    The room was near the sideways, so you can hear everything from people walking outside which doesn’t let you sleep well.

    The riad is really good in terms of authenticity and the service was great by Jamal during check in and the whole stay.

    I had to leave early on my last day (like 7:30am). so i asked the night before if i could have a coffee around 7 am (breakfast starts at 8am) and i was told that that was fine. next morning no one was around and everything was dark … no biggy, but you know not nice though. one other thing - two days after my stay I received a notification from booking that my stay had been canceled by the host because of no show … mmmm. well, i did show and paid cash for my stay (as requested). again no biggy, just a bit weird.

    cozy atmosphere, great care for details, amazing rooftop with lots of couches to chill out and watch the sunset. Really good breakfast, attentive staff. great location inside the medina, but just a couple streets of the chaos of the markets

    Horrendous communication with the owner of the property. He doesn’t reply to emails, phone calls, nothing. After weeks of not taking my payment, he refused to take card payment, I had to pay via online link. I don’t get genius points for this huge booking because he didn’t confirm my payment on booking.com He Offered (via booking.com) airport shuttle, I accepted, nobody came to collect me. I booked for 12 guests 5 double rooms and one triple room (two single individuals sharing a room), on arrival the owner denied (via phone with his employees) I’d paid for this booking and insisted I had changed the booking to a double room, put the two single people in a tiny double room and sold the triple room to other guests. HOWEVER the staff on site are excellent, very helpful and pleasant. The owner creates such a difficult environment for the workers to resolve all the time. Not cool. For this reason I do not recommend you stay here. The breakfast is freshly prepared and good, some of the rooms are nice - some of the rooms smell like toilet drain. The location is excellent. It feels very safe here and staff are available 24/7.
