    This riad is situated in the southeastern part of the medina, away from the busy tourist areas. There are many restaurants in the maze-like outskirts of the medina that are within walking distance, but restaurant options are limited in common with most restaurants in the area. the rooms are decorated beautifully with unique pieces of furniture, and the service is excellent. the terrace is a great place to enjoy breakfast with beautiful panoramic views of the city.

    The prices at this riad are relatively high compared to other accommodation options in the area.

    We absolutely loved staying here! The hotel was spotless, had great facilities and was located in a charming area of the medina. We had no problem finding our way through the maze-like surroundings and loved the authentic feel of the area. Additionally, the breakfast was delicious and the staff were extremely helpful and attentive to all of our needs.

    Nothing to dislike.

    This hotel was a luxurious and wonderful experience. the staff were friendly and fulfilled my requests for massages and beauty treatments with exclusive amenities. I enjoyed relaxing on the sun terrace and dining in the restaurant with its delicious special diet menus and in-room breakfast.

    The only minor issue was that the hotel's sauna was outdated.

    The rooms were beautifully decorated and very spacious. The staff was friendly and always ready to help with anything we needed. The location was perfect, right in the heart of the historic city, with easy access to all the main attractions and restaurants.

    The property was quite old and poorly maintained. The furniture was outdated and uncomfortable. The shower lacked water pressure and often flooded the bathroom. Prices for food and drinks were too high, not a good value for money. it was a disappointing experience.

    We had a romantic getaway and it was amazing! The place was just like a Moroccan palace, with gorgeous decor in every corner of the property. Our guest room was spacious, comfortable, and had a view of the city. The location was perfect, hidden in the narrow streets of the old town, and just a few minutes away from the main attractions. The staff was friendly and warm, and they even surprised us with a bottle of wine in our room.

    The breakfast could have been better with more variety and some healthier options. , the hot water was not consistent, sometimes it was lukewarm and other times it was too hot.
