    rooftop terrace
    charming architecture
    worn mattresses

    The rooftop terrace where breakfast is served is a bright spot, with beautiful views setting a nice tone for the day. The architecture of the riad offers a cozy and charming Moroccan vibe, making it a unique place to unwind.

    However, the mattresses in the rooms are worn-out, leaving a less than comfortable sleeping experience. Additionally, the presence of dampness in rooms and stale smells raised concerns about ventilation, making it uncomfortable for extended stays.

    shower drainage
    furniture renewal

    Rooftop terrace ambiance, cozy Moroccan decor, strong WiFi connections

    The shower doesn't drain well and leaves a damp floor!!! Bedding is outdated, and the bathroom sink is way too large for the space!!! Some furniture appears in need of renewal, which detracts from the overall experience!!!

    relaxing atmosphere

    Recommend it for couples looking for relaxation

    We spent a lovely time enjoying breakfast on the rooftop, it was absolutely the best orange juice I’ve ever had! ! You can feel the real soul of Morocco through the traditional architecture and the vibe of the Riad, which was super relaxing, made me feel at home!

    It wasn't budget-friendly, but still acceptable for the experience.

    exceptional service
    fresh salads
    worn mattress
    dampness issues
    comfort concerns

    The staff provided exceptional service, ensuring all our needs were met, and the décor of the place perfectly captured a modern yet traditional vibe. Enjoying large portions of fresh salads at breakfast while soaking in the vibrant atmosphere was a delightful experience. However, the mattress could use an upgrade for better comfort, and there were some concerns about dampness in the room that affected our sleep. The location was fantastic, making it easy to explore the local area.
