Excellent location, spacious and comfortable room (no refrigerator), good buffet breakfast (fair), the bathroom was awful... the water from the shower came out from under the door (... the floor was completely open) with no curtain and everything ended up dripping with water, when paying the municipal tourist tax they charged me 120 Dhm... and not 10€ as stated in the reservation itself... No matter how many times I showed them the reservation, they said no (... it was more than 18 Dirham in favor of the hotel as well as n regarding the exchange rate at local exchange offices) it is an issue that TRIP.com should clarify with the establishment, otherwise everything was fine.

I would like to express my disappointment with the situation. Upon my arrival and throughout my stay, I repeatedly confirmed with the reception staff that I had only one room booked, and they assured me each time. This miscommunication caused significant frustration, and I believe it reflects a lack of professionalism. be carefull with this hotel

A very good choice. Both the service and the place are great! The catering and staff are very good. The lit fireplace in the restaurant room is a huge plus and a wonderful surprise. I highly recommend this address. Thank you for their welcome!

This was a bit of a shocker. 1. The rooms absolutely stink of the drains. It was enough to disturb your sleep. 2. The security is really worrying. We had a room on the first floor that had a privacy trellis just leaning against it so we couldn't see what was outside. It was only when I woke up one night to a phone torch sweeping the room that I realised the window opened onto the walkway of the next floor up. Genuinely terrifying. 3. We were half board, and the food was like school dinners, no hint of any seasoning and you weren't allowed to order from the same menu as other guests. You get a handwritten either/or menu that's boring and repetitive- either soup or salad, either tagine or pasta, either fruit salad or pastries. Really underwhelming. 4. Hidden charges- we had water, tea or Coke eith our meals. You'd think this was included in half board. Wrong. At the end of the week they presented us with an entirely random £50 bill for the drinks. 5. Keep receipts for everything. We paid £50 city tax on the first day. They insisted we hadn't paid it on the last day. It was only when I said I'd paid it on my card and could pull up my transaction history that the bratty girl on the desk suddenly said "OK you can go" and let us leave. 6. Utterly disinterested in guests. You're just an occupational inconvenience.

The setting is attractive, as is the menu. Unfortunately, the food was not good! The service and cuisine did not live up to expectations. Furthermore, the portions were insufficient in quantity. CONCLUSION: AVOID

In the heart of the historical walls of the Medina, a real taste of Moroccan architecture and decor. Pleasant to dine in and conveniently located to walk around the shopping area. The steep staircase to the rooms that give onto the inner courtyards could be a problem for elederly couples and the first floor would be advisable. There is however a very helpful porter. The Concierge is helpful, but ineffective in having the TV fixed for example.
