Had a very pleasant and enjoyable stay at Riad Alassala. The courtyard was heavenly and and the roof terrace is underrated. What made the stay extra special was the wonderful staff. Muhammad and Ali went above and beyond, we felt welcome, respected and felt like old acquaintances. Ali was a delight to talk to and would even stay up waiting for our safe return.
All in all we really enjoyed our stay and our experience was amazing and in line with what we expected from a Riad as opposed to a hotel.

we were nervous when we first arrived because we had to travel thru the medina to get to the Riad...the roads were like alleys-dark, spooky..like going thru a maze...google maps were not accurate..however, once we found it and came inside, Alassala was fabulous, the staff was excellent, the food was good, the rooms were fabulous, one staff member "Ali" went out of his way to help us with suggestions of where to go and how to get there

It was loud up until midnight one night, when my flight was at 6am, but the staff and accomodations are high above standard. Great rooftop view as well if you just ask them to open the door for you.

Hospitality at this Riad was unmatched! Ali was amazing, he went above and beyond to make us comfortable and even helped us find medicine when we became sick. The Riad is also beautiful and we enjoyed the breakfast and dinner menu. The only comment we have was that our room was a little quirky and the bathroom was dated. The door was super small causing us to hit our heads a few times - maybe not recommended for tall people like us above 5’8.

The bathroom door in our room is low. It would be better to have some padding.

Cute Riad in a central location!
This was a really cute Riad in a good location! The staff were really helpful and accommodating, even when I had a very early check-out, preparing breakfast for me in advance. The room itself is really cute, and I thought it was a really good deal.
