Overpriced 3*

We stayed here out of season, early April Firstly the staff, as always in Morocco are so friendly and go out of their way to help you with anything. The location of the apartments are idyllic, the scenery of the mountains and neighbouring Chefchaouen is stunning. However we were not entirely happy with our stay as we were given a room with no working air con, when we asked for some heaters we were given 1 broken one. It was extremely cold in the night. We were offered to move to another room the next day but as we were only staying 1 more night it seemed pointless moving all our bags. The breakfast buffet was ok but not much hot food options and some things were cold. We purchased 2 bottles of chocolate milk for the kids and couldnt believe when they charged us almost £5, when we questioned why so much they said because they have to bring it from far. Its 15 mins to Chefchaouen town. It seems they are a 3* accommodation trying to charge 5* prices which when out of season and no other facilities available is quite bad.

Un cadre prometteur, mais un séjour décevant

Hôtel globalement mal entretenu : mobilier vieillissant, coupures d’eau, piscines ressemblant à des bassins sans traitement. Petit déjeuner très limité, kiosque aux prix excessifs. Aucune activité ni animation proposées. Points positifs : très bon emplacement, calme en pleine montagne, et un personnel vraiment sympathique.
