Poorservice from the man in the counter, lack of towels and shower ammenities unless its asked for. Noisy during the night until 3 AM. Host also complaining about Expedia booking for the start set a negative tone from the start of my stay. Only positives were the cleanliness and location. There are better options for similarly priced hotels in the area so I would not recommend a stay here.

The receptionist and the manager were very nice and friendly. Very clean rooms and shared areas. Made me change my plans and stay an extra night in marrakech before visiting casablanca. Highly recommended if you are looking for a clean cozy place that is close to the heart of the city!

They thought my wife is a prostitute, we were was beyond shocked. The staff was rude and sexist. The hotel has a non refundable policy. We didn't receive a full refund from Expedia. Worst hotel in the world!

Moroccan Date Night--NOT happening lol
It's not bad for the price, like $12 USD. But if you meet a female who is Moroccan their laws do not permit her to come to your room unless you have a marriage certificate or she is not a Moroccan. Morocco is very liberal but some people take this issue seriously. I meet a beautiful female who wanted to spend time with me and the guy was like NO, YOU NEED CERTIFICATE of marriage!!! In USA this is unheard of, but I respected their laws. But it DID ruin my nite lol. The TVs are outdated, no hot water in rooms.

Centrally locates, but uncomfortably loud outside
It’s a great location for the price, but don’t expect too much. No toiletries or towels are provided in this hotel. Bathroom light is not working in my room. Door bangs against one of the beds. Sheets smell like they weren’t rinsed out properly (sheets were actually hanging from the railing inside the hotel, I guess they do their laundry in house). The manager was very helpful though and the ladies doing housekeeping were quite friendly.

Doesn't deserve 3 stars.
I'm pretty sure that the mattress in my room had fleas. It was solid, too, as was the pillow. The wiring suspending the light fixture was clearly broken, and held together with a bobby pin. The socket by the sink was hanging out of the wall, the bar in the wardrobe was hanging down one end, so impossible to hang anything (no hangers, anyway). There was never any soap or toilet tissue in the bathroom. The TV had only one channel, but it was NBC movies so to be honest, I didn't really mind that. Plus side: the hotel is literally right next to everything - seconds from an atm, food, shops and about 1 minute from the souk. It is noisy until about 2am, but that's just Marrakech. The bathroom while not pretty, was very clean. The roof terasse was a nice bonus, and drinks inexpensive. My room was very very cheap, and I think I got what I paid for more or less. But it has a three star rating and Definitely doesn't deserve that.

In need of remodeling
All females use the same one bath room for shower and toilet. Same as for the males with the bathroom for them on opposite side. I had to constantly ask for toilet paper and I almost slipped while taking my shower which is highly dangerous because it has only slipper tile on the floor. Now I know to wear flip flops in the shower if ever experienced again. You have to take shower quickly because the water get cold fast. The are is so small, not make for a plus size period.

Cheap room - cramped toilet facilities with no loo roll provided. Shower had hot water although late risers may not be so lucky (friend was a late riser who had no hot water).

I stayed one night at this hotel because I had a flight leaving Marrakesh the next morning. The hotel was a little difficult to find, but with help from some of the locals (for a small fee), I eventually found it. I chose the hotel for the low price. I was not expecting much, so I don't think it was a terrible experience. It was fine for one night. The room was small but comfortable. There was a water fixture that was broken and not in use. There were also some cracks and signs of damage that looked old. There was no bathroom or shower in the room, but there was a shared the facility across the hall. I probably wouldn't choose this place again unless it was an only option. It wasn't terrible, but I would want to be more comfortable next time.

Never book this hotel!!! It was awful - no towels, no bed linen, no toilet paper in the WC, no hot water at all, flaky WI-FI. When I arrived at 02:00 in the midnight the hotel was closed. I needed to wait 30 minutes for somebody to open the door.
