Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location is perfect for exploring the Medina, and the rooms are quite spacious and clean. Unfortunately, the service was not friendly, which dampened my stay a bit. The dining options were also quite limited, which was a letdown for me.
The hotel has a great location, just a short walk to the medina and several shops and restaurants. The staff was friendly and accommodating, creating a relaxing atmosphere. However, I was concerned about the room security as it seemed someone had accessed my room, leading to some stolen items. Overall, it provides good value for money, especially considering the guarded parking for a low fee.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. On one hand, the location was fantastic, just steps away from the old medina, and the rooms beautifully showcased Moroccan decor. On the other hand, the service was hit or miss, with some excellent staff but also some drawbacks like the lack of Wi-Fi in rooms. While the room pricing seemed reasonable, I did encounter some issues that made my stay less than ideal.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location was fantastic, right on the edge of the medina, which made it super convenient for exploring. The room was clean and had a great view, but it felt a bit dated. The service wasn't the best, mainly because the staff seemed uninterested at times. Overall, it’s a good value for the money, especially with the reasonable parking fee.
The hotel has a great location, just two minutes from the entrance of the old medina, which made it super convenient for exploring. The rooms, while adequate for a short stay, are quite dated and need some refurbishment. The staff was generally friendly and helpful, but I did have a bit of a run-in with one person at reception regarding exchange rates. Overall, it’s a decent choice for the price, but there’s definitely room for improvement in the cleanliness and comfort of the rooms.
