My experience of staying at the Riad Salam could not have been more different to the previous reviewer's. Of course, we were lucky: my friend and I turned up unannounced at the hotel late afternoon, having checked out two other options in Ouarzazate, neither of which we deemed suitable. Without any prompting on our part, we were immediately offered a reduction of 50% on one of their suites, which made it very affordable (normally it would have cost 1,400 Moroccan Dirhams per night, exclusive of taxes and breakfast - around 83 pounds sterling per night). The suite was superb and had a lovely terrace overlooking the pool area. The staff were extremely pleasant and helpful and we found the location of the hotel excellent. The only disappointment was the breakfast, which was in my view below par for a hotel in this price bracket: there was a very limited range of items on offer. We had one evening meal only at the hotel (in what I would describe as the coffee shop) and it was OK, but not especially exciting. There is, however, another restaurant in the hotel, which may be more sophisticated, though we didn't check it out. On the basis of our experience, I would most certainly recommend the Riad Salam.
