The exquisite decor and breathtaking courtyard truly transported us to another era, making our stay feel magical.

However, communication with the host was challenging, particularly regarding parking directions and our dietary requests.

Our stay was amazing! Abdoul was a fantastic host, cute us with mint tea and taking us for a tour. The rooftop pool was perfect for cooling off, and we enjoyed fresh lemonade and a huge dinner. Everything was clean, and the room had great air conditioning.

The honest truth about this

The vibrant tile work and open-air courtyard were breathtaking! The staff's hospitality, especially Abdoul’s attention, truly made our stay memorable.

Parking directions were unclear, and the subtle scents from the nearby kitchens occasionally lingered, sometimes overpowering the riad's charm.

Communication issues from the start!!! Directions for parking were unclear, and the location felt too hidden!!! A bath instead of a shower left me wanting more options. Vegan needs not understood fully!!!

The staff delivered exceptional hospitality, making each moment memorable, with the lovely terrace pool providing a refreshing escape from the heat. Every breakfast was a delight, showcasing a variety of options that catered to different tastes. However, bathtub options over a shower were inconvenient, and parking instructions could have been clearer.

Just an excellent fit for a quick stop in Fes with great value for the money. The A/C worked okay even if not super strong. Bring your own shower items as they only have baths available.

authentic dishes

awkward sink

Our stay was a fairytale! The stunning decor, from intricate tile work to beautiful courtyard, was mesmerizing. Plus, the authentic Moroccan dishes were simply out of this world! However, the sink was a little awkward, making for some mess in the bathroom. I'd definitely come back again!

The room was spacious with great air conditioning and a bar fridge, which was super convenient. Really appreciated the decor too! It felt cozy and inviting. Plus, we loved the rooftop pool vibe! Just a heads up though, the bathtub wasn’t my favorite way to shower, but overall a great stay.
