Nothing! :)

Very kind and helpfull host, really helped us going around Marrakech! Riad is beautifull with a nice roofterrace.

Stayed in June 2022

For those taking the airport transfer: since the riad is located in the middle of the medina (pedestrian zone) one still has to walk at least 200 meters with luggage through the busy alleys, which can be intense if you’re not used to the Marrakech way of of life (vendors and motorbikes). Simon, however, did meet us when we arrived so it was no problem. One minor suggestion for the room: it would be nice to have a small trashcan (maybe in the bathroom).

The property is in the middle of the medina with loads of exciting alleys, restaurants and street vendors around! The riad is very cute, clean and peaceful with lovely decoration and a very nice shared roof terrace where the staff serves you breakfast. Simon, the host, really goes above and beyond to help you and thereby eases you into the busy Marrakech life. In addition he speaks very good english, which helped since we didn’t speak Arabic or french. I would recommend Riad Simon to everyone!

Price of the private transfer from and to the airport could be lower considering local prices, but it's very efficient and comfortable

Location is close to many points of interest. Simon is super available for advices on what to visit, where to eat and good prices of goods available in the suk. Breakfast is abundant and tasty.

Right at the heart of old medina, steps away from Jemaa el-Fnaa, a cozy riad with a lovely terrace… Simon is very helpful, solving our last minutes requests easily and always with a smile 😊

I was sad to see there weren't any sun beds on the terrace like in the photo, but Simon said I was welcome to move one of the arm chairs into the sun. Bed quilt was the kind without a cover (I don't think it can be washed) and the loose sheet to separate me from it always got lost in the night... Made me wonder how many others' germs were against my face :/ otherwise the place was very clean and hygienic.

Riad Simon is right in the middle of the medina action, a few minutes from the main square and souks (though around a 15 minute walk from a road you can get a taxi from due to the medina restrictions). Simon was incredibly welcoming and caring, he clearly has a huge passion for running the riad! He treats all of his guests like family.The included Breakfast on the terrace was wonderful, very filling and varied a little each day.

Great hospitality. Got there early and our room was already waiting for us. He spent the next 30mins welcoming us with tea and giving us a sim (small fee) to help guide us around the city. Pretty clean comfortable cool room with a lovely breakfast. Simon is a great personable host who I would recommend staying with at the reasonable price he charges

We booked and paid for our last day in Marrakesh here. Waited in front of the door for two hours, called, sent messages. but no response whatsoever. Ultimately had to book a new hotel. However, I did receive the overnight costs back from Booking

Friendly staff, best location if you want to be close to the city centre of Marrakech

The transfer from the airport is expensive compared to the other taxi. The bed was really uncomfortable and made impossible to sleep. The water of the shower doesnt get away easily. The room hadn’t been cleaned everyday.

Simon is very friendly and the breakfast is very good. Great location in the heart of medina but be aware of the noisy.

Room. The room was very small and very dark. If we didn't open the window and the doors that led to the riad's courtyard where other people walked, the air was stuffy. There was one mirror and it was very small, it hung at a very low level, I had to use the mirror in the hallway, because I couldn't see my face in the mirror in the bathroom. It's not big deal, but a mirror is important for a woman. The shower. That's my special pain. The hot water worked randomly. Sometimes it heated up, and sometimes it didn't. When it heated up, after five minutes of use it could stop flowing, and then it was cold again. It was winter, so in order for the water to heat up you had to turn off the shower and wait a little in the cold bathroom, wet and shaking. Also, the water didn't drain well from the trays, so you had to turn it off and wait until the tray empty out. Breakfast. We ordered breakfast there, it was ok, but I would have liked more protein and less bread. Coffee was cold, but we complained and they had done new one, hot. Soundproof. You can hear absolutely everything that happening outside in the Riad. Very recommend to take earplugs. With them I slept very good.

Staff. Simon and staff were friendly and helpful. Simon shared lists of nice places for google maps, served tea and local delights when we arrived. Room. was authentic and nice. Bed is comfortable and warm despite we were in winter time, we didn’t turn on the conditioner. Location is super good. It’s on the noisy street by you can’t hear it then you inside the Riad. Clean. It was clean, room was cleaned every day. if you care about authenticity, then this is a good place.

We had the only room in the riad which had a wall adjoining the main street which is quite a busy thoroughfare to the square. Noise from the street could be heard for a good portion of the night, so not the quietest. The other rooms were probably fine.

Good location for the square,souks. Pretty riad and nice room.

The water is not hot, only for few minutes and not continuously from time to time

Friendly and great owner and a good apartment

Staff was not responding and was not responsible We had to wait for over 30 min and also no one was there during the checkout

Had Ac and room was clean

I was hoping that the riad will have a garden in the middle and I would prefer if it was a bit brighter inside the room.

The location of the riad was great as it is in the Medina and very close to the Jemaa el-fna square. Simon is an amazing host, he is very polite and made us feel very welcome and comfortable. He gave us great advice about Marrakesh. The room and the breakfast were really good as well.

The room was really small. But beside from that the problem is that we experienced a really bad situation. We left in the room our passports with a certain amount of money (and we were sure about the amount because it was the payment for our driver). Because there was no safe/strongbox and we didn’t want to take the money with us around the medina, I decider to hide passports and money in the back of the pillow. When we came back to the room, someone has enter before to clean it (we didn’t ask for this service and they didn’t ask us if we wanted this service). The passports were no long behind the pillow, but in front of them, so of course someone touched them. 50 euros were missing from our amount of money. We went to ask end they of course denied everything. The morning later we waited 40 mins for our breakfast and only when we were leaving and we were really late, the owner offer us to watch at the cameras. He said that the cameras can see inside the room if the windows is open. We refused to look because we were in a rush and we knew in any case we lost 50 euros. This was the only bad experience I had in a week of Morocco.

The location is great, inside the Medina, 3 minutes walk from Jemma El Fna. Breakfast was good.

We stayed 4 days, 2 days we left early and got told there would be a breakfast left for us, but it wasn’t even though i was assured it would be.

Well placed for shopping

Poor drainage in the sink and shower. Unpleasant odor from bathroom. Unreliable wifi. The Riad host encouraged us to visit a tannery. We had some time, so we agreed to go. He arranged for a free guide to walk us to the tannery and told us we'd need to pay an admission fee of 20 dirham each for the tour. The tour was horrible, unsafe and disgusting! After the 5-10 minute tour, we were taken to a store where they tried selling us rugs and leather goods. We weren't interested in buying anything. When we left the store, we were immediately confronted by the man who walked us through the tannery and the man who walked us from the Riad to the tannery. They demanded money. We gave the tannery tour guy 40 dirham. He got mad and demanded 400 dirham. We said no, ended up giving him 70 dirham and said that's it. Then the guy that walked us to the tannery demanded money. It got very heated. We ended up giving him 100 dirham even though the Riad host specifically told us not to pay him anything. The experience was very unsettling. We thought we could trust the Riad host.

Great location, right in the Medina. It's a little oasis from the hustle and bustle of the streets of Marrakech. Reasonable price. Host provided lists of things to do and places to eat.

Room is very noisy as it is facing to the street in the center. Informed breakfast starting at 08:30 is very late.

Staff very kind and helpful. Riad in the center, easy to find and walk everywhere.

There was trouble with the wifi when we arrived and the following 24 hours, but Simon fixed it, at it was okay the rest of our stay. The breakfast is okay, but not fantastic.

Great location. Friendly staff. Flexible regarding check in and out.

There’s a lot of noise coming from the street, no privacy because we can hear everything from the other rooms. It wasn’t very clean, don’t know if it was the color of floors but it looked very dirty and greasy. Anyway it was very cheap and ok if you’re looking for a place just to sleep.

Good location, very good breakfast and cheap

Stayed in September 2022

Everything was good.

Very welcoming, accommodating, responsive and nothing was a problem. We went on daily trips so we had to leave early so breakfast was ready for us as a take-away. When we stayed in, we enjoyed delicious breakfast, all freshly prepared, served at roof terrace. Best parts: Amazing terrace to enjoy breakfast and late evenings playing cards. Kids didn’t want to leave:) Rooms are cleaned daily. Hospitality and warmth. Location-needed to ask friendly locals for direction so it was not a problem. Although it is very central, noise is minimal. Information about local restaurants, Banks, attractions, spas, shopping.
