Real Guest Experiences & Ratings
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests consistently praise the riad's beautiful and cozy interior design, noting its convenient location right off the main streets in the Medina, just a short walk from Djemaa el Fna. The spacious rooms, some with huge windows and lots of natural light, are well-decorated and offer comfortable beds, while the varied breakfasts, featuring local specialties, are a highlight. Some guests have noted that the jacuzzi water wasn't warm enough initially. The on-site Hammam is another frequently enjoyed amenity.

The breakfast was varied each morning. It was served individually by the staff on the roof terrace. I found the location excellent, just a short walk from the main square.
The street looked dangerous and dark. The room was small and all noises from the courtyard were audible. There was a lot of dust on the curtains.
