    won't do Riad again. Proper hotel next time, and short fleeting visit to medina, markets and out!!

    I know now I don't like Medinas. I can see why people find them interesting, and must do culturally exciting things to do, but if you don't like stuffy, dank, musty, old, no air con, poor attitude by staff to customers, steep narrow stairs, sharing unsecure room with strangers in the next room to you, noisy at night, no tea making facilities etc etc, then fine. I don't, sorry.

    Rood terrace with views over the port area and town, very nice. Shower room, rudimentary to say the least but fine.

    The Riad did not look anything like what was advertised on booking. The location is in a very sketchy neighborhood that is so far removed from the main road. The place is very old. The pictures on booking of the place look like that they were taken 10 years ago. If you are looking for a safe place for you and your family, this is not the place to book. The rooms and beds had a musty dusty smell to it. No air conditioning present in any of the rooms. The rooms do not lock even though you are giving a key. When locked from the inside, someone from the outside can easily open it. We left less than an hour after checking in because we did not feel comfortable. The person who checked us in, asked for a payment even after we explained to him that we paid through booking. He told us that the card was not charged only for us to see a charge on our account the next day. I had to contact booking before the person called me saying that he will send me the money via western union. No apologies from him or the owner Giles or anything. I am sure they would not have said anything if we did not discover that. Giles claims that he has been on booking for 10 years so I am not sure why this mistake was made and how they did not realize that. My interactions with Giles were borderline rude and not customer friendly at all. This experience has been the worst for me and my family.

    The manager came down to get us to the property which was good because we would have never found it otherwise

    As above. Nothing also even the Moroccans felt we were In a dangerous area .we arrived late at night.taxis cannot get near the place and it is almost impossible to find.

    Nothing. Breakfast rooftop, did not have enough tables for guests they were in the blazing sun with no shade. My room was very damp, no bedside table no hanging room, three pieces of furniture in room 1 set of drawers one small coffee table, one straight back chair. We had to leave breakfast tables to accomodate other guests.

    it was very loud. shared living room area had people talking until very late. concrete building with lots of stairs made people walking very noisy. no fans. very hot in our room. our room did not have a bathroom connected. felt like a hostel. not a lot of privacy overall. people can look into your room while you are sleeping

    location in the Medina was great even though neighborhood was a little intimidating at times. locals were very helpful in showing the way. the building itself is beautiful to look at. roof view was great.

    First of all, don’t miss the breakfast! With that said, it is a lovely, cute little hotell in the middle of the old medina, in old style. The service is excellent, and the staff is very friendly and helpful!

    Bathroom and toilet were in a seperate room across the hallway which is not what you would expect for a private room and bathroom

    This place stores the oriental spirit in every detail and in each corner. all the staff from the owners to the workers are so friendly, so helpful, they really care about their clients. the breakfast is great the location is perfect. the view from the roof is magical. I highly recommend RIAD AROUS CHAMEL.
