The staff were all beyond kind and an easy highlight. They helped with any questions we had at any time. The riad smelt great, and felt very homely, with only 4 rooms. The terrace was amazing, with a good breakfast every morning. Value for money was exceptional, with breakfast included and help at almost any hour. Location was great, being slightly down an alley so no noise, but only 10-20 minutes from most things.

I did have a cockroach in my room, although I removed it and had no more throughout the stay. A couple of the bulbs in the room had gone by the time we left, although a simple fix. There was water dripping from the bathroom slide door - unknown cause although might of just been carried from the shower Worth noting the increased costs of the stay opposed to booking.com site

This riad is so cute and cozy. It smells nice as well. I'm impressed with the cleanliness. The staff are very helpful and provided excellent services, all of them. The riad is located in a convenience area but once you're in the riad, you can isolate yourself from the outside and you feel like home in the riad. However, the road is not wide enough for a taxi to enter the road. Therefore, you need to get off at school and walk for 3-5 mins to the riad. There are lots of nice restaurants, café for both normal and rooftop style as well. I highly recommend staying at this riad. Your trip to Marrakech will be more memorable for sure.

The room is quite small but I love it anyway. I was hoping they would offer savory food for breakfast and no water provided in the room as well, but I really enjoyed staying. Thank you.

Adoramos TUDO! Do pequeno almoço delicioso, o RoofTop fantástico para aproveitar o sol e fim de tarde, à limpeza do quarto e das partes comuns, da localização perto de mercados baratos, mas principalmente das pessoas que lá trabalham que nos ajudaram em tudo que podiam, sugeriram coisas para fazer sítios para comer e até onde trocar o dinheiro para dirahm a melhor preço, super simpáticos, lavavam todos os dias o biberão da minha filha e até lhe preparavam à noite na hora dela dormir, sempre dispostos a ajudar e até nos alertaram para o facto do aeroporto só aceitar boarding pass imprimido, e ainda se disponibilizaram a imprimir os nossos porque não fazíamos ideia que seria assim. Do fundo do coração, AMEI !!! e recomendo 100000%

The Riad its inside in the old Marrakech, in a few minutes we can see the way of life of the moroccans. The staff are extremely friendly, with a contagious smile, always asking if we need anything. I can't stop talking about Younes, a 5-star employee. Smile, attention, delicacy, concern, professionalism. We arrived late on the first day in the city and he was waiting for us after midnight at the meeting point. The city is noisy, but as soon as you enter the Riad it is wonderfully silent, a little oasis.

One of the best places we stayed in Morocco. The friendly cat who lives there was very entertaining. Good coffee. A comfy bed and very attractive furnishings. Beautiful smell and greeting with tea when we arrived. Listened to our request for a fan and gluten free breakfast without an issue. Warm in January! One of our better nights of sleep, over our 16 days in Morocco. Great location.

Loud children next door and noise through the wall. Small breakfast offering for gluten free people. The room was small but ok for us for one night.

A very gorgeous riad just outside our room, unexpectedly in the middle of the medina. We were welcomed by the very friendly staff Kabira who offered us with a hot Moroccan mint tea and the check in process was very smooth and she offered to tour us around the property. The terrace on the top was beautiful and serene, with the comfortable lounge and sprawling plants where we had our hearty breakfast overlooking the medina. Shout out to Younes who was very kind enough to look for medicine during the night as my friend was not feeling well. Truly worth the stay!

Breakfast is simple but very tasty, and made fresh. The location is very central, right in medina so there is little walking involved. The room I stayed in was a good size and the facilities there were lovely. The staff were very friendly and helpful, by giving me tips for Marrakech and also booking me a taxi to the airport. My room was absolutely spotless and cleaned everyday.

The location is very central but a little difficult to find (I did get lost!), but they send a map beforehand, otherwise it is perfect. My bed was two singles pushed together and there was quite a noticeable gap but the bed sheets were some of the most comfortable sheets I have ever felt so I didn't really mind at all!

From the arrival process to the checking out process, we could not fault it. Exceptional service, breakfast, room and staff, nothing was too much trouble, absolutely excellent.

We would have liked a small jacuzzi/pool and possibly the addition of ability to buy a cold drink but this had no bearing on our stay - that was just personal preference. We loved all of it!

Brilliant location In the medina - situated a few minutes from where you can get a taxi, and about 15 minutes from jama al fana - check in was quite smooth - and was served moroccon tea upon arrival. The hosts where excellent, kind and dealt with all requests efficiently. The room was very clean and the beds are very comfortable. The breakfast is quite good - mainly a selection of jams, bread, moroccon pancake , tea and coffee - the only thing I would suggest is maybe offering eggs/omelette.

Location of the Riad was perfect. Its in the Medina and within walking distance to the main square, the Secret Garden, museum of perfumery and plenty of cafes and restaurants. The Riad is very quaint, beautifully decorated, very quiet and staff were lovely. It has a gorgeous rooftop garden which was a nice place to relax and get away from the busy Medina.
