Everything was great, Fatima was superb and had great tips for food, Hamam, and everything you might want to do there. Breakfast very rich.

Top in one word!
Delicious breakfast and great reception! And the rooftop looks just like in the picture and is amazing. Right in the center. Right across the riad, there is a very small place where you can eat super delicious food. You really have to do that.

- • I have some allergies and because of the amount of carpets, I kept sneezing a lot, but oh well... it was amazing! Just accept that it's hot. Doesn't cool down much inside. Unfortunately, no air conditioning but we knew that.
Fatima and her staff's hospitality was incredible. So caring and warm and very helpful. They went above and beyond for us - booking a private transfer to the airport, washing - nothing was ever an issue. I would highly recommend staying here.

Hospitality at the highest level
The hostess is a kind-hearted soul. She made us breakfast lovingly every morning, fulfilled all wishes, and in the end, there was a hug and a little gift. I have never experienced that before. Absolutely charming ❤️ The cleaning staff was also extremely thorough and diligent.

- • The towel situation is not quite optimal, as they have to be hung up every day to dry and are often missing when you need them. Also, there are no external windows, so it's always a bit stuffy 😅 Power outlets next to the bed would also be great. But you can handle all that.
A calm haven in the medina
The cleanliness of the riad, Fatima's availability, her fresh breakfasts every morning and according to our wishes, the calm despite the proximity to the medina.

Excellent location with a truly beautiful Moroccan welcome!
We really enjoyed our stay here! The room was simply but beautifully decorated and stayed cool and quiet at night. The medina is very walkable and the location of this riad was perfect on a quieter street between the main diagonal and the city gates. There's a lot of reviews saying how friendly and welcoming the staff are and how fantastic a host Fatima - we honestly couldn't agree with this enough. It felt like being welcomed into a home every day without being in any way overbearing and definitely added to the experience!

- • Very minor and not a concern for us but if I were working remotely, the WiFi probably wouldn't have been strong enough for calls etc. Some power outlets with bedside lamps would also have been great.
