Very excellent riad, right in the best part of the kasbah. But do not stay here if you are bothered by hearing the Muslim call to prayer five times per day, including 6:30 am. Didn't bother me. We are in a Muslim country and they have their ways. Roll over and go back to sleep and feel comforted that you don't have to hurry to prayer.

This Riad is wonderful. We stayed with a family of 5. The building is charming original and nice and cool with an authentic vibe. The rooms are in original state however everything works perfect, clean and big enough. The staff is wonderful, they try to accolade every one of our request. The breakfast on th terrace is a simple Moroccon breakfast but has everything we needed. The view was amazing and the staff very friendly. The location is excellent. You are in a quiet street but in a minute you get to the busy market. If you have a car you will need to park at a parking about 5 min walk away, but they help you with your luggage. Overall I would definitely recommend this Riad

Really really nice place to stay, staff were all very welcoming and helpful, speaking perfect English. Given a choice of two rooms when we arrived was a nice touch. The bed was very comfy with the addition of a nice view over some roof tops to the sea. The showers were clean with hand soap provided, would have preferred shampoo and conditioner as well but for the price you can't really complain! Bed sheets and towels were changed everyday, the room was clean and the stay was perfect. Continental breakfast is provided every morning in the roof, which will do if you're looking for a quick snack before heading out. The location of the hotel was perfectly situated in the center of the city. Thank you everyone working at the Riad! Couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. Thank you, Joe and Chloe

Nessuna accoglienza, nessuna informazione data all’arrivo, scarsa disponibilità da parte della proprietà e del personale. Portatevi il sapone perché “non è previsto” (testuali parole). Camera abbastanza spartana, con bagno inguardabile. Rapporto qualità prezzo decisamente scarso. Unico punto positivo, la posizione.

I already did a bad review about this hotel and was unfortunately by mistake because it was meant for another hotel" Riad Imndi" in wchich we stayed a day before. I stayed with my friend and family members at Riad nakhla hotel and it was really good. The staff was very welcoming and Mr. Rashid did everything to make our stay very comfortable. We appreciate that he changed our rooms for free and was very professional. The food was excellent and the placement of the hotel in the heart of a market was exceptional. To recommend strongly.

A fuir
On nous a attribué une chambre médiocre alors que le Riad n’était pas complet. Ce n’était pas la chambre réservée sur l’application. Fenêtre cassée qui ne se ferme pas. Douche qui ne fonctionne que bouillante ou froide impossible d’avoir de l’eau tempérée.. Odeur d’égout qui émane de la sdb. Chambre toute petite impossible de bouger. Nous avons été extrêmement déçus de ce séjour dans ce Riad. Nous nous sommes fiés à tord aux avis. Attention à fuir absolument !!!

Hyvä sijainti "pääkadun" vieressä, pienellä kujalla vanhankaupungin muurien sisällä. Huoneet yksilöllisiä. Huoneissa TV satelliitti kanavilla. Aamiainen tarjoillaan kattoterassilla. Mukava henkilökunta. Ainoa miinus oli viereisen moskeijan rukouskutsu aamulla kuuden jälkeen. Varmasti herättää.
