really good stay!
attentive staff beautiful decor relaxing lounge
the staff were attentive! the riad is beautifully decorated and maintained. i particularly appreciated the little spots to relax, like the rooftop terrace and the first-floor lounge.
the alleyways leading to the riad can be a little tricky to navigate at first.
