    Dar Ness was just as described and shown - immaculate and well-appointed rooms surrounding a beautiful courtyard. We had two rooms booked, both of which were spacious with high quality, comfortable bedding and beautiful Moroccan tiled bathrooms....

    Charming Riad, friendly and accomodating staff! The location was great, with a parking within a short walking distance. Nice simple breakfast in the courtyard. The room was comfortable and clean, albeit a bit noisy from a the rooftop bar nearby
