I received a refreshing welcome drink. The staff gave me a helpful tour of the facilities. The mint tea and sweets served every afternoon were a nice touch after a busy day.
I encountered an issue with the shower. It was quite dirty. the coffee at breakfast was cold. When I asked for fresh coffee, I was told to microwave it, odd.

Excellent Riad Experience

friendly staff beautiful decor convenient shuttle
The staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel has beautiful tiles, décor, and furniture (I liked the traditional design). Our rooms had a shared courtyard, but another room in our party was smaller and located at the hotel's other end. The shuttle to the country club is great for cooking workshops or poolside relaxation.
Breakfast was not included, so we ate at the hotel daily. It was pretty much the same items each day.

The a la carte dinner is a must, offering well trained staff to enhance your experience. The breakfast buffet caters to all tastes. We enjoyed delicious lunches under the shade of olive trees at the country club (no alcohol is served there).
