Staff were totally fab but this riad is basic, with slightly tatty decor, down a ramshackle alley with derelict buildings and rubbish piled up next door.

The people in the Riad who looked after from check-in to breakfast were super friendly and nothing was too much trouble. After a little mix up with the taxi from the airport everything else was excellent.

Lies on information about having a Spa, Bar, Restaurant etc.etc. Staff were polite but absolutely uselesss asked us if he could answer our questions the next day. Hard to find in the dirty alley ways. Room was sold as a Superior Suite which turned out to be a small room with a double and small single bed crammed in. Very disappointing. Tried to sort things out while their but staff not willing to help.

It’s almost impossible to find so they did send someone to walk me to the hotel and walk me back to the car and carry my luggage but it’s nowhere in the write up that it’s difficult. The people were nice and the room was OK.

Riad trop cher pour les prestations. Chambre: la chambre familiale de 5 personnes n'est pas pour 5 personnes: il y a un lit double, un lit simple et 2 banquettes qui sont comptées comme 2 lits, mais ce ne sont pas 2 vrais lits simples (ces 2 banquettes sont moins larges et plus courtes qu'un vrai lit, et avec une literie de banquette, donc moins confortable qu’un vrai lit). Petit-déjeuner : comparé à d’autres riads (du même tarif) que nous avons testés à Marrakech, le petit-déjeuner est frugal et compté. Vaisselle Ikea, jus d’orange en brique, morceaux de pain de la veille coupés en petits bouts et réchauffés au micro-ondes, portions congrues, etc. Accueil: gentil mais peu chaleureux et peu présent ( quand nous avons quittés le lieu, nous n'avons trouvé personne à saluer).

Nous n avons pas l habitude de laisser des commentaires désobligeants mais il nous paraît important cette fois de partager notre expérience plus que médiocre afin d éviter les mêmes déboires à d autres voyageurs et permettre à l équipe du riad d améliorer son offre. Nous devions rester 3 jours. A notre arrivée le riad paraît accueillant, authentique et bien situé. Mais le chauffage fonctionnait très mal et vu les températures la nuit au Maroc nous avons dû dormir habillé. Le veilleur de nuit a tenté de régler le chauffage mais sans réel changement. Les menuiseries n étant pas étanches la salle de bain était extrêmement froide sans chauffage, les serviettes restaient très humides. Nous avions aussi un problème de debit d eau, seulement un filet d'eau dans la douche. A priori il y avait une fuite non réparée et le problème touchait toutes les chambres. Il a donc fallu composer. Nous avions prévu de manger au riad. Repas dehors à 10 degres. La deuxième nuit le chauffage fonctionnait un peu mieux mais la salle de bain restait glaciale et toujours un filet d eau. A 23h45 il y a eu une coupure électrique dans le riad. Le dernier soir nous n avions plus d eau chaude. Le personnel nous a demandé d attendre le lendemain. Face à chaque difficulté aucune solution nous a été proposée. Au vu du cumul nous avons été contraints de réserver en urgence un autre riad pour le dernier soir et donc payer 2 fois. Les veilleurs étaient sympathiques mais aucun confort durant ce séjour malgré le prix

Le rapport qualité-prix n’est vraiment pas bon. C’est beaucoup trop cher pour ce qui est proposé. Le Riad est certes bien situé, près de la place Jemaa El Fna et des souks de la médina, mais pour y accéder, il faut emprunter des petites ruelles pas très rassurantes, surtout le soir.

Très bon Riad dans l’ensemble, en plein cœur de la médina, nous sommes aux souk en moins de 2 minutes à pied. Personnel très accueillant et à notre écoute, parle français. Propre dans l’ensemble, juste découverte de la présence de 2 cafards à l’entrée du Riad lors de notre dernier jour, ce qui nous a déçu.

Reservamos este Riad por la piscina y al llegar estaba vacía y no pudimos usarla. La habitación era una doble con una cama plegable de la que se le salían los pies a mi hijo. El desayuno correcto pero muy básico y justito. La ubicación es buena pero tardas mucho en salir y entrar por estar en unos callejones sin salida

Cumple para ir a ver ciudad,muy bien limpieza y atención de Said, desayunos caseros, terraza chula,cerca plaza Jemaa el Fna.Como negativo el aspecto malo de las callejuelas hasta que llegas que no hacen justicia a como luego esta por dentro.Por el precio cumple. Tambien destacar que No hay Spa como anuncia y no pude contactar con ellos antes para contratar traslados del aeropuerto,aunque al llegar Sí nos estaban esperando para la entrada.
