Our riad experience
Very friendly staff and were super helpful when I had to go and visit the local hospital.
It's location is right in the centre of the bustling medina so restaurants and interesting shops are everywhere. However we needed to change the duvet covers as they were dirty in both rooms. There was a lack of windows and hence not much ventilation so the bathroom got quite smelly. All in all it wasn't as clean as we would have liked.

Riads
A little hard to find but like all Riads it looks rough outside but was quite nice inside. Considering the age of most of them it’s amazing. Definitely not what people would call 1st class but comfortable

Quiet, comfortable riad
Quiet location in the Medina. Staff didn't seem to be around much but we're helpful when they were. Accept cards as payment which is a nice find.
