It was the best place we have ever stayed. Not only the riad itself, the interior, the food, but the kindness and attentiveness of the staff, they always had an eye on every detail, and was very helpful. It worth to stay for dinner in the riad too, amazing flavours! The location is perfect, just in the middle of the medina, but in a quiet corner. The room is spacious, and always made clean. The bed is so comfortable. One small thing that was a bit bothering is the wifi, which was not stable at all, came and went in waves, but it is just a small technical issue.
