Pros:

Personalul foarte profi, amabil, politicos, de ajutor atunci cand solicitai ceva. Locatia buna, aproape de centrul Medinei, bazar si Hammam local. Mi-a placut mancarea - proaspata si bine gatita. Serviciile de masaj excelente. Excelent si serviciul de preluare si ducere spre aeroport. De asemenea fata care pregatea micul-dejun si facea curat foarte operativa si priceputa. Intregii echipe nota 10 cu felicitari.

Cons:

Cladirea are nevoie de imbunatatiri serioase pe infrastructura. Chiar daca stilul se vrea vintage, asta nu inseamna deteriorat. Trebuie o reparatie a tavanului camerei, terasa dupa acoperis trebuie amenajata si curatata, iar baia reconditionata. Administratorul trebuie sa sesizeze aceste inconveniente proprietarului riadului.

Pros:

Riad with a great location and an excellent host. We really enjoyed our stay there, and if we ever return to Marrakech, we will definitely choose to stay here again. We were treated wonderfully and the food was delicious—our host is an amazing cook! We spent some truly wonderful days in Marrakech. Our only minor note is that the Riad, which is already so comfortable and cozy, would benefit from a small renovation or a little face-lift to make it even more beautiful and appealing. I hope to return one day. Thank you!"

Maravilhoso, adorámos 5*****
Pros:

Viajei com a minha irmã. Adorei! Os funcionários foram muito simpáticos, tanto o Abdou como o Ayoub foram sempre prestáveis e atenciosos. A cama era muito confortável, as refeições foram incríveis, tudo limpo e organizado. O espaço também cuidado. Foi uma estadia maravilhosa. Estiveram sempre disponíveis para ajudar e resolver qualquer situação que surgisse connosco, mesmo que não fosse relacionada ao Riad. Cozinham extremamente bem e o serviço de hammam e spa foi excelente com a Fatima, uma profissional excelente de massagem e hammam. Muito perto da Madrassa Ben Youssef e dá para visitar o Jardim Secreto, o Palácio da Bahia, o Jardim Majorelle, etc tudo a pé, a localização do riad é excelente. 5*****

Soggiorno indimenticabile: una perfetta fusione tra tradizione e ospitalità.
Pros:

Il riad è splendido, curato nei minimi dettagli nel rispetto dell'architettura tradizionale marocchina (splendidi zellige e stucchi fatti a mano). La nostra camera era un gioiello: pulitissima, confortevole e decorata con grande gusto.

Cons:

Tutto bellissimo

Pros:

Riad in una parte tranquilla della Medina, lontano dal super caos ma vicino alla Medersa Ben Youssef. Colazione super in terrazza. Hanno organizzato un transfer dall’aeroporto con accompagnamento al Riad a piedi (i taxi non possono circolare nelle strade strette della Medina) a un prezzo ragionevole considerando il nostro arrivo a sera tarda. La stanza era accogliente e pulita seppur un po’ piccolina. Staff molto cordiale e disponibile.

Pros:

El desayuno estaba rico.

Cons:

La ubicación difícil de encontrar. Ni hay carteles en referencia al Riad, lo encuentras porque te basas en el número pero la puerta no indica nada. El personal no fue muy servicial al llegar. La zona algo solitaria por la noche para la estancia de una noche y conocer otra zona no esta mal.
