“Disappointed.”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 January 2012

The good things about the Riad were the space in the rooms, the lovely clean and spacious bathroom and the location was central and quiet. However, there were no windows to the room and as the courtyard is glazed over, no natural light or ventilation. There were joss sticks burning when we arrived but when they burnt out there was quite a strong smell of damp. The bedding and all our clothes smelt of damp after a few days. The management seemed a bit indifferent, although the Moroccan staff were friendly and helpful. A bit mixed really. The tortoise on the terrasse was a surprise!

“Lovely, quiet and full of character”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 September 2011

We stayed here for one night and wished we had stayed for longer.

The Riad is amazing. Completely different from any other we had seen. The building is particularly astonishing and the view from the top was really beautiful. We were shown to a number of rooms and each were individually decorated. We chose the green room as it had an external window. The room was very comfortable. The breakfast in the morning was the best we ate in any Riad, as the bread was so fresh.

The only less positive note is that the Riad did not feel as friendly as some others we stayed in. We arrived late and left quite early, but staff did little more than show us to our room.

However, we are glad we stayed here, however short the time.

“Amazing Amazing Amazing!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 June 2011

We stayed in the Riad for one night and it was so memorable. Our room was the green superior double - we chose it after viewing a few rooms and every time we saw a new room it got better and better - each one had a theme. It felt like we had our own Moroccan suite. The bathroom was so lovely and followed the green theme throughout - so calming and relaxing. Upstairs on the roof gave an amazing view of the city. The artwork on the walls added to the charm of the place. We had our breakfast in the library room and it was a massive array of local delicacies - we couldn't finish it all. I would definitely stay here again. Perfect location (easy to find) and would recommend it to all. They even gave us a discount on the normal rate.
