The location in the Medina was really good. Was only a few minutes walk from where the taxi had to stop. The manager Hakim was really good from the moment we arrived. Don't forget this is an 18th century property with all its quirks.
If you get the balcony room (1 of 6 rooms) there is only 6 inches of space down each side of the bed. So this room could be restrictive for older people. Limited storage in the room. Air- con in the wardrobe leaked unfortunately onto the clothes. Again Hakim was available to sort things out across the board.

We stayed at the riad for 5 nights. The staff were incredibly welcoming and friendly. A special thanks to Hakim, who was always helpful, gave us great tips, and made our stay even more enjoyable.
The riad has a lovely atmosphere. The courtyard with plants is beautiful, and the pool area looks amazing. Unfortunately, the weather wasn’t warm enough for swimming during our stay.
I stayed with a friend and we didn’t spend much time in the riad during the day, but it was a nice and comfortable place to come back to in the evening and relax. The room was quite small but cozy, and the air conditioner worked well for heating, so it warmed up quickly.
Wi-Fi worked well throughout the property.
The location is very convenient, right in the medina, with most attractions within walking distance.
To reach the riad you need to walk through the market area every time. It’s interesting at first, but after a few days it can become a bit tiring. Another small difficulty was finding the entrance for the first time. The door is quite discreet, with only a small sign above it that is easy to miss. Luckily, staff from a nearby restaurant helped point us in the right direction.
The breakfast was quite simple and repetitive: coffee, eggs, bread, a couple of types of flatbread, butter and jam. Freshly squeezed orange juice was served every day, which was great. However, we were surprised that there were no fruits or vegetables offered, especially in a country where fresh fruit and vegetables are so widely available.
There was also some construction nearby, and we could hear noise behind the wall. It seemed like a temporary issue though.
The bathroom door in our room didn’t close properly, and the handle was loose.

Good Moroccan breakfast. Great environment in the building, it felt like living in a palatial mansion complete with the owners books, games, classical music collection and superbly furnished with antique furnishings. The fireplaces and ceilings were of the the best craftsmanship and very old. The sitting room, library and roof terrace were the highlights. The pool was very beautiful set in a shaded place, a bit cold in February but would be perfect on a hot day. Hakim is the most friendly and helpful host. He talked us through the best places to visit and marked them on our gps map
The bedroom was long and thin but had lovely paintings to compensate

Stunning, authentic, feast for the eyes. The host, Hakim was a pleasure to meet- such a calm persona, he made us feel immediately welcome and comfortable.
The shower had no pressure and was impossible to get the temperature right.
