Amazing riad in a quiet neighborhood! It is located in a walking distance both to the beach and the city centre, inside the historic medina. Rooms are beautifully decorated with attention to detail. There is a fireplace in the room which they light whenever you want. Beds are really confortable. Breakfast is perfect: very generous and complete with sweet and salty options, orange juice and fresh fruit. Staff of the hotel are very helpful and nice, with very good recommendations. I totally recommend staying here!

It was the best place we have ever stayed. Not only the riad itself, the interior, the food, but the kindness and attentiveness of the staff, they always had an eye on every detail, and was very helpful. It worth to stay for dinner in the riad too, amazing flavours! The location is perfect, just in the middle of the medina, but in a quiet corner. The room is spacious, and always made clean. The bed is so comfortable. One small thing that was a bit bothering is the wifi, which was not stable at all, came and went in waves, but it is just a small technical issue.

Good location in a little side street which was so interesting to walk down. Breakfast was delicious, especially the home made yoghourt which was so lovely. The riad was extremely clean and the rooms cleaned every day to a high standard. Really good shower - impressive on 3rd floor! Most of all, Hakima and her husband - so welcoming and friendly, thank you both for a really lovely stay.
