I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were exactly as shown in the photos, and while a little noisy in the morning, the one with a balcony overlooking the plunge pool was very quiet, allowing for a peaceful stay. The service was absolutely lovely, and the employees were amazingly nice, truly caring about the guests and the property. The location couldn't be faulted, offering a relaxing place to enjoy mint tea and being close to everything. The dining experience was in a warm environment with a beautiful view, serving a complete set of delicious Moroccan breakfast. The facilities were well-maintained, making my stay comfortable and enjoyable.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and comfortable with a relaxed Moroccan look, overlooking a plunge pool and equipped with a balcony, making it incredibly quiet and peaceful. However, the room allocated in the reception area on the first floor was a bit dark and noisy for my liking, especially at a price of 50euros.
