    Some things where a little broken like as example the night light, but I did saw that they try to make things better. The shower drain was clogged. The breakfast could be more varied, but was fine. Good maroccain tea.

    The Riad looks beautiful and the employees are kind and helpfull. Also clean.

    I had a beautiful impact as soon as I entered in the Riad! Really nice. the room was clear and the staff was nice and very welcoming I really enjoyed my stay there and the dinner was excellent! they were really nice because we arrived in the riad almost at 23:30 but they prepared the dinner anyway.

    The perfect riad

    We had a great time at this Riad. It's a 15 min walk to the Jemaa El-Fna square. I don't understand people's concerns about the neighbourhood. It might seem a bit unsettling at night but the neighbourhood is friendly and safe! The riad is open 24h, the amazingly friendly employee who has the nightshift helped us a lot. The room was amazing, felt really authentic and had enough space. The only thing to be mindful of in Marrakech is the fact that a lot of rooms are really noisy. The facilities are very clean and tidy. The shower feels like a mini spa that will make you feel refreshed after a long day of walking through the crowded and lively medina. The staff is super friendly, and the hospitality is great. They are really nice, relaxed and easy going. They are considered if you need to arrange things. This is a CASH only place so they said we could pay the next day. They booked a taxi to pick us up at the airport which was very nice. We booked the Merzouga 3 days 2 nights excursion with them. We paid €90 p.p. The experience was great, we could leave our suitcase behind while we were gone and they kept it perfectly safe. The departure for the tour is at 7am and they had breakfast ready for us! Our stay was amazing. I'd recommend everyone to experience it as well. Really comfortable and lovely experience.

    The staff doesn’t speak well English so it’s a pity that communication is a bit hard. The room heater didn’t work appropriately so it was cold night.

    Nice riad close to the main attractions of the Medina, the breakfast with Moroccan traditional pancakes is good. Unfortunately just stayed for 1 night.

    Not much to not like, but if I was being picky, one of the showers in the bathroom had very slow drainage. Just meant that we had to wait a bit before the next person could jump in.

    Well equipped room, close to the markets. The host was really helpful and accommodating. Would recommend

    The shower pressure is the only thing we thought could be better.

    The Riad is beautiful and located out of the touristic bubble, in a local but safe area where you can easily walk to/from all the souks and the main square. Breakfast was delicious and Adil and his dream team made us feel welcome to use the common spaces of the Riad and to explore the city. They were very helpful and friendly and were available 24/7.

    The personnel was friendly and helpful. Even when we had no chance of getting breakfast because we were leaving early the coffee was waiting for us. When we managed to have breakfast, It was really nice. There is a possibility of an airport transfer. We had arrived early, but we could leave our stuff before our room was ready. Definitely recommend!

    Way too overpriced for how disappointing it is.

    Weird and cold behaviour of the staff upon arrival and afterwards, whether I spoke in English or French. The shower was either dirty or moldy. Equally so, all the decorative pillows had stains once you flipped them to the other side. On our second day, the towels were changed for new ones but the shower gel wasn't filled up, they simply watered it down. After we checked in and went out to see the city, we came back to find our already unpacked stuff completely moved to another room because supposedly, one of the staff took us to the wrong room (she barely said a word other than bonjour during that entire exchange). We had a key to our room but not to the main door, which meant we once had to ring the doorbell for 15 minutes before someone finally reacted to our loud knocking.

    I guess the inner yard looks pretty.

    1. The manager was not very polite and quite controlling. Not feeling welcomed when arrived. 2. The bathroom in the room has no window, and it STINKS! Absolutely disgusting smell throughout the stay. Let alone the nasty condition of the bathroom. Visibly mouldy. 3. Its location is not the best / safest. More importantly, we waited 5minutes out on the doggy street before someone opened the door for us…! We also heard people aggressively knocking for a continuous 20minutes the second day. We don’t know if that was residents couldn’t get in or just people trying to break in. It was not very nice to experience and we texted the hotel on booking.com, they never replied. 4. As many comments mentioned, breakfast was very mid and everything was microwaved…. 5. Pool looks much smaller and you wouldn’t even wanna go in. Terrace has no view at all.

    We tried to reach the hotel for several days because we had a question. No answer. We were asked to bring a marriage certificate (it's my 9th time in Morocco and it was the first time) fortunately we had it on the phone but the guy in the hotel insisted on pritining it. As we struggled to find a copyshop he wasn't there anymore so it was all for nothing. Breakfast was the worst I ever had in Morocco. Very poor. All in all very disappointing. All the other Riads we stayed at in Marrakesh were much better.

    Looks like in the pictures

    AC was working. Located near the souks. Visually pleasing.
