"Idéalement situé pour visiter la médina, le musée de la musique, le mausolée et la porte Bab El Mansour qui sont à quelques minutes à pied. Endroit très tranquille, nous avons bien dormi. Les crêpes de Nadia sont les meilleures que j’ai mangées au petit déjeuner au Maroc. Nourriture délicieuse et généreuse. Merci aussi à Mehdi et Tuohami pour leur hospitalité et leurs bons conseils!"

"It’s situated within the medina which is ideal although you will need to walk a little way from the Main Street to access it. It was down a dirty alleyway with some cats and poo which wasn’t nice. It’s not their area but perhaps they may need to consider how to make that first area more appealing to guests as it looks awful. Inside it was a very nicely decorated Riad. Breakfast was good and useful. I would say if visiting in winter months that this Riad was very cold. The air con didn’t seem to work in heating up the room. This was the one place where I could see my breath so that was a bit of a drawback. I’m sure in the warmer months it’s very comfortable. "
