Liked: The pool and roof terrace are great but the staff aren't really around much in case you have questions. No wifi but overall a great place to stay once you find it. You will probably need to pay a kid to show you the way.

Liked: The staff were so friendly and helpful! The location was perfect and beautiful! We felt very safe and secure the whole trip it's like a little oasis in the middle of business of Marrakech. And who can complain with waking up to freshly squeezed orange juice every morning! I will definitely be back!

Liked: The location of the Riad is about a 7 min walk from Jemaa El Fnaa Square and is a bit tricky if locating it for the 1st time. Thankfully, we had airport transfers so arriving was handed very well by the Riad manager. Rooms were very clean / spacious and really brought out the Morroccan atmosphere.Would definately recommend this place onto others.

Liked: We loved our stay here. Clean spacious rooms, a real oasis in Marrakech. The owner/manager was super helpful and all in all it was terrific. Our one complaint was that we could not find a WiFi signal anywhere in the Riad despite reassurances that it was up and running. We found a WiFi place right down the street instead, but in room would have been considerably more helpful. This place has tons of local flair if that's what you're in the market for. Big thumbs up. Cheers.

Liked: This Riad was fantastic if you want somewhere away from the hustle and bustle (It won't be easy to find the first time!). The staff were great and generally just left you to your own devices, which isn't to everyone's liking. But I loved it. It is simple yet beautifully decorated and has a lot of charm. The breakfasts are lovely, but not over the top and the coffee and Mint tea just great. I can't fault the place and would happily recommend it to friends. In fact I rebooked the Riad for the last couple of nights we had in Marrakech!

Liked: Lovely peaceful place, great to retire to after the chaos of the main square (which is a 10min walk away). Yusef and Ayesha are very friendly and will bend over backwards to help you out. The price is excellent, some friends were staying in another riad which was of a similar standard and was three times the price, so it's great value. Nice rooftop terrace for listening to the muezzins and watching the sunset, and the whole riad is clean, tidy and safe. Free breakfast a bonus too. One point - it can be difficult to find first time, so an airport pickup is probably a good idea, but you'll get your bearings pretty fast. Thoroughly recommended and we will return next time we're in Marrakech :o) Will & Maya, London
