Overall, it’s a cute hostel vibe. It’s an older building being in the Medina. The staff was very welcoming and helpful with getting around and finding places to eat. The rooms and property could use a little work and remodeling, but maybe that takes away from the hostel vibe. It is in a good location next to good eats and literally in the middle of the Medina.

Solo older traveller staying in the Pink Floyd room. Bed was huge & comfortable. Water pressure in shower was excellent along with the hot water. Very comfortable. Staff friendly, accommodating, approachable & spoke many languages. An interesting quirky funky place with lots of genuine love.
