10.0Traditional Riad with good facilities and excellent staff
Liked mostThe riad is easy to find just inside the walls of the Medina, just knock on the door and you will be admitted. The staff are very friendly and will give good advice on where to visit and places to eat and can arrange trips out for you if you wish. Evening meals are available but they usually only cater for 8 residents, so book early if you want to eat in. It is a different set meal each night but accommodations are made for vegetarians. We found the meals very tasty and the service both personal and friendly. We also ate next door at the Terraces Des Artes which was excellent and very good value for the quality with a choice of traditional Moroccan fayre or international options. No TV or fridge in the room but who needs them. Wifi coverage was excellent. We booked via Jet2 as a package and paid a small premium for better rooms and were given one on the roof terrace which was ideal. The bathrooms are a bit idiosyncratic with a separate WC with a door and an open shower and wash basin all of which can be partitioned off from the bedroom by closing a curtain across the room. All in all we were very happy with the accommodation.
