    Very great location, close to transportation to all places, and a very wonderful reception with a smile from all the staff in this hostel. There is no noise and the mattresses are comfortable and clean. I really loved this hostel.

    I stayed in Marrakech for many days, and even after traveling to other cities, I chose to return to this Riad. The place is exceptionally clean, with daily housekeeping, and the host is incredibly kind, attentive, and responsible, which makes you feel completely at ease. I also booked desert and valley tours through the Riad, and they were all reliable, well-organized, and fairly priced. Both the private double room and the shared room were very convenient, with multiple bathrooms and toilets in the Riad, so there was never any issue. Guests can also use the fridge, and the breakfast was delicious. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and authentic—a truly memorable stay. This is one of my favorite places to stay in Morocco. If I return, I will definitely choose this Riad again. Highly recommended!

    The accommodation is exceptionally clean and well-maintained, with daily housekeeping. Washing and daily needs are very convenient, with a washing machine and refrigerator available. The rooftop is spacious and beautiful, perfect for watching the sunrise and sunset, and there’s even a clean and well-behaved cat that makes the atmosphere cozy and pleasant. The location is excellent—just a five-minute walk to the bustling commercial area, with banks, restaurants, local supermarkets, and international chain stores all nearby, making everything from dining to currency exchange very convenient. The overall environment is spacious, comfortable, and scenic—definitely a place worth recommending.

    The environment here is very clean and tidy, with daily cleaning provided. The owner is very kind, attentive, and friendly, and the people I met here are all very nice and respectful. There are many services offered on-site, which is very convenient and trustworthy, so you don’t have to worry about being overcharged elsewhere. The location is excellent, and the breakfast is delicious. Overall, the value for money is outstanding—this is by far the cleanest and most comfortable place I’ve ever stayed. Highly recommended! Everything you need, like water, towels, and Wi-Fi, is easily available and very thoughtful.

It's a simple place with comfortable and clean facilities. Excellent location too, super close to Jemaa el-Fnaa and many spots to eat and shop. I definitely recommend staying here!

    Everything was great :)

    An amazing place, very welcoming, with a chill atmosphere and soo clean, there was not one moment for my entire stay, that I did not see the manager of the hostel, Ayoub with a broom in his hand, making sure everything was spot-clean :D. Riad dar sahrawi became a home for me during my stay in Marrakech, a real oasis in the desert. The location is very good, close to the big square, but the moment you enter through that blue entrance door, everything, all the hustle and bustle of the big city fades slowly away and you can enjoy a quiet night in the common room, or relax on the terrace. What I especially loved about this hostel though, were the people managing it!! Ayoub was incredibly helpful, every time I needed something, be it help with information about the city, tips for haggling or organising day trips for me, he went above and beyond to make sure I was well taken care of. I booked almost all my day trips and the desert trip to Merzouga through the hostel and I had some amazing experiences!!! I am so very thankful for all his help and care!! The entire stay was so good, that after my desert trip to Merzouga I came back to Riad dar sahrawi for 2 more nights, to enjoy Marrakech one more day before my travel to Casablanca. Oh and let's not forget about Osman's amazing breakfast!! The tea, msemen, eggs it was all veery delicious, every time I felt like having a family breakfast. I recommend this place wholeheartedly, it will make your trip to Morocco unforgettable!! As for me, I know I will come back to stay here :D

    Breakfast was fantastic, all the staff are so kind and helpful, and the four bed dorm room was the most spacious I stayed in during three months in Morocco, which was really nice! It was a bit tricky to find because I missed the sign on the side of the building, but the directions are accurate so you just have to be paying close attention. The location is really convenient to get a taxi to the airport or train station and it is only a 10 minute walk to Jemaa el-Fnaa. The rooftop is also lovely, especially if you get a visit from the kittens! Thank you from Canada :)

    Ayoub is very friendly and approachable, we had a great time staying there. It’s close to the square, vey nice and safe location. I also liked the eggs and orange juice in the breakfast. It was really hot in Marrakesh during our stay so the air condition in our room helped us a lot!

    It is more like a hostel than a riad but It is nice to have the facilities to cook and store food/water. We were very tired and at the end of our trip so people chatting on the terrace right outside our door was off putting but they were respectful and didn't carry on late. If you like a chill hostel and have the energy then it's perfect :)

    The staff was very friendly and helpful. The private room was really nice and comfortable and spacious. The air con worked well. The location to the road to get a taxi, to the main square at jemma el fnaa, and to the medina was perfect.

    The plug socket nearest to my bed didn’t work, although all the others seemed to (worth checking) Although there are fans, some beds are better positioned for them than others

    Great host and a very convenient location, with lots of cheap, authentic places to eat nearby. Lots of recommendations given Nice terrace area upstairs and communal living room.
