Beautiful and spacious, centrally located and a fantastic staff. We had a family room in this multi-story Riad turned hotel. We loved the upper deck and enclosed breakfast room for breakfast on chilly mornings. Hyatt and Fatiha were charming and helpful with all things. Impeccably clean and well managed, it was in the heart of the Medina.
