Considering it was almost an 800 year old building the condition was good. The staff (Khalid) was friendly and helpful. There were restaurants (local food) within walking distance. You could also get a taxi within a few minutes to visit tourist places.

The Riad itself was intimate and really gave the authentic experience. The rooms AC was a blessing and was never too hot. Beds and the bathroom were well kept and cleaned daily, so cute. The host was so, so kind and extremely helpful in many different ways, the best! Only thing I would mention is travelling around at night can be a bit challenging as it can seem like a maze. This is especially apparent when Google Maps aren't giving you correct directions or showing non-existent roads. Get a good bearing of the area during the day and try get to get back to the Riad at a reasonable time.

Three days in Marrakech

Kahlid, the manager was wonderful. We checked in about 5pm. He served tea. He told us about the property and the town and some of their customs. After we settled in he recommended a place to eat and walked with us to show us where it was. The food was great. There were 3 of us in the room but it wasn't too crowded. The rooms are off a court yard where we were served breakfast and tea. Excellent food. It was made fresh for us in the kitchen off the courtyard.

We have just returned from a 3 day stay in this lovely Riad. We booked our airport taxi through the hotel and the host met us from the drop off point in the Medina to walk to the Riad. Our host was a lovely quiet man who was very hospitable. The Riad was beautiful inside but fairly basic which we liked. The beds were comfortable and breakfast basic but authentic and slightly different each morning. The only downside to this Riad was its location. It’s in more of a residential area and a good 25 minute walk from the main square, that’s if you don’t get lost. You definitely need Google maps .

Friendly and welcoming Riad

A lovely place to stay. We were so well looked after by our hosts; everything from airport transfer to making sure we were comfortable in our room. Breakfast was delicious and varied from day to day and the serving area was perfect. There are also good communal seating areas and we were able to make use of the rooftop terrace. Previous reviews mention the close proximity to a mosque and hearing the early morning call to prayer. We personally found this to be a positive experience, all part of the city and its rich culture. The Riad is located within the Medina, but is at the northern most end, so Google maps is definitely needed to be able to navigate your way to the main attractions. We found that we actually did slightly fewer steps than we would normally on a city break. There are a couple of really good restaurants nearby - Zouhal Food and Limoni. Would definitely recommend this Riad as a place to stay.

Absolutely fantastic riad. Very clean and pretty on the inside. The host is without a doubt the friendliest and kind host I’ve ever come across. He went out of his way everyday to ensure I had a good stay. I don’t leave reviews, but this place deserves it. Stay here, you’re missing out if you don’t.

We stayed for three nights here as a couple and felt so welcomed. The staff weee incredibly friendly and went out of the way to make sure we were comfortable. We cannot recommend this place enough and encourage anyone wanting a hotel to stay here for an authentic Moroccan experience. The room was spacious and clean upon arrival and cleaned daily. The shower was hot as well as powerful with basic toiletries provided.

Very disappointing

The Riad is situated down an alleyway, hard to find and in a rather rundown area. Khalid the manager was very hospitable and helpful. However the accomodation was basic, tired, and not the cleanest. At night trying to find your way back getting accosted by teenagers after your money to guide you. Even the tuktuk driver could not find it. We were booked in for 4 nights and left after 1.
