I have just returned this morning from Marrekech, and I booked it from reading the previous comments on this site. It is a cosy and beautiful Riad in an exiting and authentic part of town. We were walking back through the lanes at 2am - 5am every night, it was intrepid but felt safe. Very clean and safe rooms at a very good price. The French patron was fantastic to us and informative about the city and local culture. Except the offer from the Riad to send a Taxi to the airport for you as they are all the same price anyway, and he will know exactly where the Riad is ! You can book this place with confidence or I'll give you your money back!!!

The best thing about this hostel were the staff, their friendlyness and willingness to help and advise you about your time in marrakech.....The couscous at the hostel was the best that we had during our two week stay in the country.

This was the best place I have stayed in during my 5 months of travel, including several 5 star hotels! Thieery really was so helpful and he sat with us every night telling us stories about living in Marrakech and the local customs. He made our stay so much easier.

Staff and owners go out of their way to be helpful. Lovely and secluded, with gorgeous roof terrace, yet right in the thick of the medina. An amazing, authentic riad.

Thierry and Simone were great hosts, always ready to help you and offer great advice on how not to be taken for a mug in the Medina - if it wasn't for his advice; we would have listened to the first person who told us a "road was closed and been lost" having to pay to be shown out of the dark allies... The location is perfect, in MOQF near a busy hub of activity and real morroccons but far enough away to be quite and tranquil. From the terrace you can hear hubbub of the people around and have a great view! I can't imagine a better place to stay in Marrakesh

This hostel was layered in the city's old town district. It is a small hostel whit a great atmosphere. Breakfast at the roof in the morning sun, nice romantic rooms and great hosts! Our compliments to Thierry & Thierry who took all the time to explain us everything, where there for a nice talk and evaluation of the day when you came back at the hostel and they did everything for a pleasant stay. We have just three word sfor this hostel: Fantastic, Great, a fairytale!! T & T thank you for the great stay!! Tanja, Monique & Jorn The Netherlands

The two men that run the hostel were very friendly, helpful and attentive. The Breakfast was wonderful sitting up on the pretty roof terrace.

Host Thierry was very friendly and helpful and fun to be around. When we arrived at 8-9 PM, a beautiful table was set for us (arranged in advance to have dinner prepared) in the courtyard, and the food was wonderful and the service from Simo was top notch. I definitely recommend you dine at the riad one evening if you can. Breakfast on the roof terrace was also great. Rooms were very pretty, lots of character.Thierry prepared a great map and gave lots of good advice on how to navigate streets and markets of the medina. Best place we stayed on our two week trip.
