    Beautiful Riad in a good location. The interior was very clean and with beautiful decoration. They also had nice places to sit outside and a very nice swimming pool. The staff was kind and the food also good. So in total there is nothing bad to say. It was really perfect and we would always like to come back!

    Very comfortable hotel on the outskirts of Ait Ben Hadou

    The wifi and the location of the hotel isn't great. It's on the outskirts of the town, so the access to the city is better by a car, not mentioning the mud road leading to the hotel.

    The riad is very comfortable a fully equipped with everything necessary. The room was huge and very comfortable. Even though there was no reception and no info upon our arrival, the host automatically prepared dinner for us. The staff was very nice and helpful. I could imagine staying for a longer time, since one night wasn't enough to try all the lounging areas the hotel offers. I really liked the breakfast, even though, the dinner was a bit plain and could benefit from some seasoning.

    The location of the hotel is about 5-10 minutes walking from the main street and another 5-10 minutes more to Äit Ben Haddou which. Located above the sall village you have a beautifull view over the surrounding area. There is also an idyllic small swimming pool to cool down after a hoth day in the dessert. Food was great aswell.

    Th drive upto the Riad was a little rough.

    Our stay at the Riad was comfortable. Th reviews were absolutely fantastic. As I was traveling with my mum we had booked twin beds, but had a double, not the end of the world though. The food was good, not exceptional, but OK.

    Unfortunately, my son left some medication behind which was expensive medication and they threw it away the following day within hours of us leaving and when we called them the same day and asked them to try and locate it they informed us that it had been thrown away and that the rubbish had been already removed from the property. My son as a consequence had to pay £30 for replacement medication.

    The property was lovely, very characterful and comfortable and a good breakfast

    Price was too much for what we got for both accommodation and food. Maybe it's the Unesco site so they can charge more? Would pay 60€ anywhere else in morocco for this experience.

    Location was on edge of town which was nice and quite. Neat common area with sofas. Washroom was nice, one of the most functional and clean we've seen.

    We choose this hotel because they said on booking that they it was possible to charge our electric car. 30 minutes after arriving there was a electricity outage for 2 hours. When it ended it wasn't possible to charge our car due to the lack of voltage to do it. So the next day we had to go back to a public charger and wait 3 hours for the car to charge.

    The breakfast was OK.

    The pool very old and the filtering system was off. In general, everything looked aged. The shower knob old and malfunctioning. The structure of the Riad is original and nice but there are too many pieces of furniture, local decorations, frames which render the everything too much! More expensive of other better Riad where we lodged in our trip

    The host allowed us to store our alcohol in his fridge, thanks! If you plan to visit Ait Ben Hadou kasbah , then the proximity of this Riad is a plus

    Unsurfaced, partly steep road necessary to reach accommodation (c 800m), is however no problem for a saloon car. Compared to other (original) riads (like Marouane in Meknes, that serves excellent food) the evening meal for a set price was tasty but limited.

    Beautiful pool

    Flies. Cats and dogs in the dining area. Beds were hard like everywhere in Morocco. Looks like your going through a rough gravel construction site to get to it. Lack of choice for meals.

    Quiet location near everything. Nice pool. AC was good. Good water pressure and hot water.

    Can’t really walk from Riad to Ait Ben Haddou; food was mediocre for the cost- we thought pricey, especially for the size of our room . We were a little disappointed for cost and service .

    It’s quite out of town. Set back from the road down a bumpy, dusty track and then up a steep rutted driveway. Not Ideal if arriving by motorcycle, we had an adventure bike with knobbly tyres so were alright, otherwise it would have been tricky. They do not serve alcohol, regardless of what website said. The only drink option is water or tea. Not even a Coke or juice. Garden view room does not have a view of the garden (there isn’t one) or a private entrance, or a terrace. Dinner is served at a determined time regardless of when you want it and there is no choice (which is not unusual for Morocco) but it was quite bland. Breakfast ok and you do get to decide what time you have it. It felt a bit like a good quality hostel.

    Clean and comfortable. Nice outdoor area with pool and loungers. Inside was nice, lounge area with sofas and board games. On a clear night the stars are fabulous. Staff were friendly.

    Staff seemed disorganised. We asked for 8am breakfast but no one was able to be found at 8am. The dinner- the chicken was terrible, tough, inedible. Very disappointed in the dinner. Shower was cold.

    Comfortable bed. Activities easily arranged by hotel. The staff are friendly. The eggplant dish at dinner was fabulous.
