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.

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 comptĂ©es 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-dĂ©jeuner : comparĂ© Ă  d’autres riads (du mĂȘme tarif) que nous avons testĂ©s Ă  Marrakech, le petit-dĂ©jeuner est frugal et comptĂ©. Vaisselle Ikea, jus d’orange en brique, morceaux de pain de la veille coupĂ©s en petits bouts et rĂ©chauffĂ©s au micro-ondes, portions congrues, etc. Accueil: gentil mais peu chaleureux et peu prĂ©sent ( quand nous avons quittĂ©s le lieu, nous n'avons trouvĂ© personne Ă  saluer).

Nous n avons pas l habitude de laisser des commentaires dĂ©sobligeants mais il nous paraĂźt important cette fois de partager notre expĂ©rience plus que mĂ©diocre afin d Ă©viter les mĂȘmes dĂ©boires Ă  d autres voyageurs et permettre Ă  l Ă©quipe du riad d amĂ©liorer son offre. Nous devions rester 3 jours. A notre arrivĂ©e le riad paraĂźt accueillant, authentique et bien situĂ©. Mais le chauffage fonctionnait trĂšs mal et vu les tempĂ©ratures la nuit au Maroc nous avons dĂ» dormir habillĂ©. Le veilleur de nuit a tentĂ© de rĂ©gler le chauffage mais sans rĂ©el changement. Les menuiseries n Ă©tant pas Ă©tanches la salle de bain Ă©tait extrĂȘmement froide sans chauffage, les serviettes restaient trĂšs humides. Nous avions aussi un problĂšme de debit d eau, seulement un filet d'eau dans la douche. A priori il y avait une fuite non rĂ©parĂ©e et le problĂšme touchait toutes les chambres. Il a donc fallu composer. Nous avions prĂ©vu de manger au riad. Repas dehors Ă  10 degres. La deuxiĂšme 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 Ă©lectrique dans le riad. Le dernier soir nous n avions plus d eau chaude. Le personnel nous a demandĂ© d attendre le lendemain. Face Ă  chaque difficultĂ© aucune solution nous a Ă©tĂ© proposĂ©e. Au vu du cumul nous avons Ă©tĂ© contraints de rĂ©server en urgence un autre riad pour le dernier soir et donc payer 2 fois. Les veilleurs Ă©taient sympathiques mais aucun confort durant ce sĂ©jour malgrĂ© le prix

Le rapport qualitĂ©-prix n’est vraiment pas bon. C’est beaucoup trop cher pour ce qui est proposĂ©. Le Riad est certes bien situĂ©, prĂšs de la place Jemaa El Fna et des souks de la mĂ©dina, mais pour y accĂ©der, il faut emprunter des petites ruelles pas trĂšs rassurantes, surtout le soir.

Mooie Riad. Prima gelegen dichtbij alle bezienswaardigheden. De service was heel goed. Vriendelijke mensen, doen alles voor je. Het ontbijt was eenvoudig, maar helemaal prima. Alleen de weg ernaar toe is iets minder, kleine achteraf steegjes. Je denkt eerst, waar kom ik terecht, maar als je eenmaal binnenstapt ben je aangenaam verrast.

Dejlig beliggenhed, en rolig oase nĂ„r man trĂŠnger til en pause fra Medinaens larm og “skĂžnne kaos”. Personalet er meget venlige og imĂždekommende. Fik endda muligheden for at sende privat sms til en, sĂ„fremt hun skulle booke en tid til hammam for mig. De arrangerede upĂ„klagelig bagageafhentning og kĂžrsel til lufthavnen til en meget rimelig pris. Sidst men ikke mindst serverede de en skĂžn myntete.
