    we would definitely recommend this hostel to people travelling on their own and couples. the riyad staff are brilliant - ali and lahcen made us really welcome and went out of their way to tell guests about marrakesh.

    Very helpful staff and great location. The location is the main draw for this riad. The rooms are clean, and nice enough, but nothing special. The staff is great though. Need more bathrooms b/c there is 1 for the 2 four-person dorms (8) people. No locks on room doors. Overall, a plesant stay.
