    - There is no door in the bathroom room rather a curtain which could be uncomfortable.

    - Very good location walking distance from the city center - Excellent service and help from the personal - There is a small Terrace - Decent Breakfast

    The location even though it was close to the main square, it was a bit confusing in regards of going through the narrow streets, and also a bit difficult to go with a car and park there, but apart from that, everything was great.

    Great stay, very helpful staff, amazing breakfast, 25 min walk to main square.

    Very litte sound isolation in the rooms, you can hear the guests in the next room coughing as if you were next to them. You get used to it, but this is the major critique of this riad.

    The location is perfect; a short 10 min walk from the center, so you don't need a car but you are still in a relatively calm area. The rooftop and pool are wonderfull, the breakfast is local and good. All staff are very friendly, especially ABDOU who really takes care of the guests and will help requesting taxis, etc.

    After booking, Matthieu sent me tons of helpful travel tips via Booking.com, which was amazing. I also arranged airport pickup through them, and everything went smoothly. Abdou was like the ultimate host—carrying our bags, helping us get local SIM cards, drawing us maps, and giving us all the key info we needed. He was *so* thoughtful! Every morning, he prepared delicious breakfasts and checked in to make sure we weren’t tired or missing anything. The Riad itself is gorgeous too! The room had plenty of space for even our huge suitcases, and the sofa was super comfy. *Thank you both* for your incredible hospitality—you made our Marrakech trip absolutely perfect! ❤️🥰🙏

    We initially booked the standard twin room, but we weren’t happy with the room because it had a smell and the toilet didn’t looked good. So we asked them to be transferred to a new room, and the new room was way much better and nicer. Also, the wifi was a bit slow. But other than that, nothing else.

    I liked the location of the riad itself and the staff were very helpful and accommodating. Especially with Abdou, who gave us some tips on what to do and what should we be cautious about. He also gave us some local recommendations on where to eat and it was the best!

    I don’t have anything negative to say to be honest!

    I mostly loved the atmosphere. Marrakesh can be quite crowded if you’d like to see the markets so to come back to a hotel that offers a retreating home causes your trip to be balanced out perfectly!

    No complaints.

    The staff were extremely attentive and made the stay wonderful. Most facilities are close and easily reached within a 30 minute walk. It is best to get the hotel to arrange your transfer from the airport as the location is not easy to find in the maze of alleyways. The hotel is quiet and a great place.to relax. Good WiFi. The a/c cools and heats effectively. The rooms are not large but they are full of Moroccan character. Good value for money.

    No minuses really, but things to keep in mind: - Wifi was a bit slow - absolutely not a problem for us as we didn't use it anyway, but just something to bear in mind in case you need it more for your stay - No hair dryer (or at least there wasn't any in our room - and to be frank, we didn't ask the staff if they had any) - The organised airport transfer dropped us off about a 5-minute walk from the riad - that's 5 minutes once we learned our way through the little streets of Marrakesh - it took us about 10-15 minutes of wandering around to find the place when we first arrived. We arrived during the day and as a couple, so that wasn't really an issue, but should have I traveled alone (female) and/or at night, I would have felt way more intimidated by the surroundings.

    The riad itself is exactly what you would expect from seeing the photos. But what makes it truly special is the amazing hospitality of Abdou and Patrick who were ready to go above and beyond any time there was anything they could help us with; from organising an early breakfast for us at 6am to printing our boarding passes on a Sunday morning. I've traveled to nearly 30 countries and I don't think I've ever met more caring staff.
