Very friendly and inviting, welcomed with conversation. Nice and relaxed place to stay at and very close to La Place down a small cul de sac to the right of the mentioned street in the directions.

I stayed here before and choose to stay on another night. Friendly and with good beds. No breaky, but with La Place around the corner and plenty of local places to eat its no problem.

Mustapha is a super kind and generous man,answering all our questions, his mint tea is so tastey! The hostel is centrally located with so much to see and do just out the front door.

Fantastic hostel. Great location. Mustafa and Ferrit are wonderful people, and will do everything to make your stay in Marrakech perfect. We also went to the desert with them, in a 3 day/2 night trip that I would highly recommend. I have stayed in a lot of hostels, and rarely do you find such...

Everything brilliant, Mustafa is the best host i've ever met, the hostel is superb clean and located very near to the jama-al-fna! [the only little minus is that the hostel has the form of a galery, so its sometimes noisy- ok, i admit, i've a light sleep....] so thumbs up!

Nevertheless I can totally recommend this place. It is located just one minute away from the main square. The rooms and sanitarys are clean and free internet is available in the common room. The staff was very kind and introduced us to marrakech and the moroccan culture. As it was our first visit to morocco, we really enjoyed this. If you see this: Thank you very much!close

easy to find, great place to meet people, be wary of 'deals' you may be getting through the hostel. Lechiam is a great guy - very accommodating.

Staff were friendly and I was kindly invited to share some food on the break of Ramadan fast. Room was clean, but there was no A/C. At this time of year it was not a problem, but might be in midsummer. The main problem was the constant noise from the television which echoed thoughout the hall and...

Really recommended. Although it does not have the character for a romantic weekend, it is perfect for sightseeing and getting about in Marrakesh. The location is excelent and easy to find, which can be problematic in Marrakesh. Absolutely great.

Lehson and Mustafa looked after myself and those I was with really well. Nice chilled place to stay, just missing a few sofa;s and a communal place to hang. Otherwise, just what you need to escape the Marrakesh bussle.

Moustafa, the manager, is a very cool guy who helps you out with everything, organises trips to the desert for you and tells you THE places to visit.

They need better direstions on how to get there, but the staff is so helpful which is a plus since marrakech can be crazy. I also went when it was soo hot and they need wither ac or fans in each of the roommates. It was painfully hot sleeping there.

Great place to stay. Very close to everything you will want to see in Marrakech. If you are coming from the airport have them pick you up. It would be hard to find by yourself the first time. The staff was great and they speak English. If you have a chance take the 3 day trip to the desert....
