There are 5cm gaps around the thin wooden bedroom doors around the cetral communal area. This stops none of the noise made by the owner or his many visting family members, but stops paying guests from making a sound at the owners insistance.
None of the bedroom doors lock!
The plasterwork in the bedrooms and bathrooms is cracked in many places, but the biggest problem here is the integriry of the owner.
Having 'helped' us and some of the other guest with making local purchases, and then finding out he had maked the purchases up by over SIX HUNDRED PER CENT, his attitude when challenged was one of 'this is Marrakesh, every one gets ripped off! What did you expect?'.
I suppose the alarm bells should have rung when we were asked to pay in cash amnd told we must not discuss the price we have paid with the other guests - sneaky and underhand.
Having now spent some time in Marrakech I can say there are much better places to stay at better prices, don't get ripped off here.
