Amazing riad in a quiet neighborhood! It is located in a walking distance both to the beach and the city centre, inside the historic medina. Rooms are beautifully decorated with attention to detail. There is a fireplace in the room which they light whenever you want. Beds are really confortable. Breakfast is perfect: very generous and complete with sweet and salty options, orange juice and fresh fruit. Staff of the hotel are very helpful and nice, with very good recommendations. I totally recommend staying here!

The Riad is absolutely beautiful. It is really easy to find, and ideally located to explore the medina. Everything about our stay was excellent. The room was really comfortable, the breakfast was lovely and we also had dinner there one evening which I would highly recommend. Unfortunately my son was unwell during our stay (from some seafood from elsewhere!) - the gentleman at the Riad was so helpful! He was very sick during the night meaning all of our bedding needed taking off, he came and helped me get sorted and quickly got new bedsheets sorted so we could get back to bed. I was so grateful, and the staff showed genuine concern, checking in and making some simple meals for him such as a bowl of rice to help his stomach settle again. Without all of this the stay was already exceptional but the care on top of the hospitality was fantastic.
