We loved this Riad, felt like a private oasis in the middle of the Medina. Very organised, amazing breakfast and staff!! As a family we also appreciate the fact that it was super quiet… all the time!! No music, no people drinking / making noise … total silence. If someone is looking for a busy lounge / reception to meet people, than this may not be the right place. For us, Wonderful!
It is a little walk from where the taxi drops you off- we knew about it so it was all good but we had an elderly Granma that found it a bit long (some 15 minutes walking slowly).

This is an excellent Riad. It’s a great location within the city walls and only minutes from the main square. The staff are also very lovely people always happy to help. It’s a great place.
Nothing - a great place in a fantastic location staffed by lovely staff. Also as other reviewers have said / the family room is even better than the description.

Ideal location and very quiet dispute being so close to the square. They couldn’t have been more friendly and helpful. They went above and beyond to help with anything and would highly recommend
Nothing but be aware that you can’t get a taxi directly to the riad (not their fault). We would get it to cafe de France then walk from there (2mins) but after midday taxis are not allowed into the square so we would get dropped off at the shell petrol station and walk 10mins. We used google maps for directions - you don’t need to listen to the street guides who will charge you.

The staff could not have been more accommodating, they cooked us an individual breakfast each day - even when we forgot to ask! They even offered a takeaway breakfast the morning we departed. The staff coordinated our trip to the airport. The room was very spacious and comfortable. The roof top space was excellent.
It was very difficult to find. Once we were there, we discovered the riad was actually right off of the main street of Derb Dabachi but your GPS won't route you that way. Very easy to navigate once we realized this.

Everything was great. Location in the center of Medina but in a quiet dead end street. Small pool to cool down. Great rooftop with tables and sunbathing area. Everything was clean. The room looks better than pictures (2+2 family room). And above all - super nice and helpful staff.

The riad was compact and well located just minutes from the central square. The staff were very friendly and provided a sufficiently large breakfast every morning, which was lovely to wake up too!

We loved the location, which is very central yet very quiet. The hospitality was great, and the breakfasts superb. They were flexible regarding check in and check out.
You have to love your roommate because there is no door to the bathroom, only a curtain.

Everything means everything. The owner, the Lady and the gentleman who were in charge of management and breakfast are the nicest and humble people I have ever met. 10 out of 10. Very clean and neat. The rooftop is awesome.

Very good location, close to Djemaa El Fna, so feels very safe to walk back home as it's just one small street from the main street. Realy good price/quality. You get welcomed with tea & breakfast is really good! Large rooms & soft beds!
