The breakfasts were lovely. I enjoyed the terrace. My room was perfect. I was especially grateful to be on the sea. My friends stayed at a Riad deeper in the Medina and they struggled every night with smoke from burning trash. So I felt so happy to have the cool seabreeze. The staff were also very kind and accommodating.

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.

Very nice place with super friendly staff. They have an amazing cat. Rooms are nice, a bit humid, but with a strong and hot shower that we loved. The breakfast was one of the best we had in our journey. Recommended!

Pool tables lovely. View perfect. Clean, welcoming, friendly staff and people every night downstairs. Smoking inside was good for us, if you don’t like the smell of smoke I understand you might not like the smell, didn’t smell in the room though. Couldn’t have asked for anything else.
