6/10 Good
Nov 12, 2023
The host was very welcoming and we felt very comfortable during our stay. The location is perfect, quiet and at the same time close to the Medina which is good to walk around and visit the old city of Fes. The room price was affordable 50 euro per night, whereas Expedia listed the price in Moroccan dirham. The Riad offers a home cooked tagine dinner for 20 euro per person (approximately 210 dirham) and is a nice treat if you want a quiet dinner in (restaurant tagines are around 90 dirham). We tried 2 rooms: the inside rooms are very quiet and dark at night, the other room with the balcony to the outside was louder but has a fantastic view of the hillsides. Bathrooms are decent, we had some issues with the shower but that was fixed after talking to the host. The place offers to wash clothes for 1 euro (10 dirham) a piece, hanged to be dried, not ironed, which means the clothes might take longer to dry e.g, more than 24 hours. My only recommendation, and to avoid any confusion or misunderstanding, is to use the country currency (dirham) for the room price and the other services. Not all visitors are from Europe, and converting between currencies and changing exchange rates may cause budgeting problems.
