My host family took me to Lake Takerkoust (its dam powers all of Amizmiz and Marrakech) for a hike. Up here, you can see the entire floodplain and the river tributary that flows into the main lake. Far away on the other side, you can see a motorbike riding across the dirt road as if a speck of dust was slowly floating across space. As we sat and ate our picnic of fruit and veggy sticks, I couldn't help but wonder how much more Morocco is than just its stereotypical perception, a desert.

"Spent 3 nights here as a solo female traveller and was incredibly happy with my choice. Location is ideal, right by the airport bus stop and very close to a street with lots of good, affordable restaurant choices. The owner/manager and all staff were incredibly attentive and the dorm layout and cleanliness some of the best I've experienced. Some reviews said they struggled to find it but if you're following Google maps it's very accurate!"

"Das Personal war unglaublich nett und hilfsbereit. Alles war sehr gepflegt und das Frühstück richtig lecker !"

"We stayed there for three nights with our 12yers old dauther and even she liked it and was happy there. When we arriwed and they found that our booked room is already occupied, they gave as four room roof apartment with doors directly to 100m2 terrace with mountain wiew. When we wanted meals during the day we just told them time for our lunch or dinner. Meals were delicious,not cheap but for fair money."

"Everything is good"

"Hôtel fantôme. Porte fermée. Les voisins disent que "l'hôtel est fermé depuis quelques jours. Le numéro de téléphone est aux abonnés absents. Bref une bonne galère à 21h00 le soir. "

"The staff was really friendly and helpful...The hostel was clean enough. Also,the rooftop was a plus point where you could relax anytime and have a nice breakfast too"

"Decent hostsl in great location for awesome price. Breakfast included, tea provided at any time if needed. Nice guys working there. You can order a day trip from them, however prices set by hostel are bit high. Still you can negotiate with them! Really recommend that. It was my second stay. Third one will be there too! "

"Pls don’t book this riad. This is the worst place I’ve stayed at in all of my travels. So, I booked this riad a month ago and messaged the property thru travelocity that I would like to request for an airport pick up. The property replied and confirmed. My flight arrived at 12midnight and I was looking for the sign from the drivers waiting at the arrival area and couldn’t find my name. Thank God there’s wifi even outside the airport so i called the property via whatsapp. The guy who answered...

"Great place to live at for a short period if u r on budget...very close to jemaa el fna and some nice restaurants...breakfast was 🔥 for a 2 🌟 hotel. "

"Very friendly and helpful people. Good food too. Close to the tombs and palaces. I would deff go back"

"We arrived at this property exhausted as we flew over night from Canada. We were greeted warmly with tea, dates and cookies. The amenities were all well described to us and we were acknowledged by all the staff. The room was clean and spacious, equipped with homemade shampoo, conditioners and body wash. We had fresh fruit in our room as well. The food in the restaurant was amazing so fresh, beautifully prepared and the service was outstanding. We enjoyed dinner music, tea, and a serene environment. Every need was attended to quickly and often before we knew we needed it. We had special service from Jalil who served most of our meals and made us beautiful tea and served it perfectly. Yousef jumped quite literally for anything we needed. It was the best experience in a hotel I have had. I would recommend to anyone visiting the incredible city of Marrakech to stay here and embrace the wonderful people. Thank you for making this experience so special. "

"Highly recommended. Great communication before and during my stay, all of the front desk staff are super friendly and helpful, the riad is clean and beautiful, the location can’t be beat—maybe 50 steps from Jemaa El-Fnaa square, but a quiet and calm oasis where you can escape the frenetic energy of the square. The breakfast was also very good, and is served on a lovely roof deck. If I had to find a negative, I would say that the rooms are compact—but it’s a riad, so you should go in expecting that. The bed and bathroom were plenty large, and there was also ample storage space, so it wasn’t really an issue. I spent over 2 weeks going from place to place every day in Morocco, and Riad Marraplace was by far my favorite lodging."
