bad experience

I have had a horrible experience with Riad Ali Baba. When we arrived, it was clear that they did not have a room for three people, as the reservation clearly required, and they tried to cram us into a tiny, dark, and cold room that could accommodate at most two people. A very inexperienced receptionist told us he can get a couch in there, but after two hours of waiting he informed us that the couch would not fit in. He proposed to send us to another riad for the night, but after another hour waiting and no clarity of whether that was just someone's house or when that room was going to be ready, we left for another hotel in Marrakech. Save yourself the trouble.

Fantastique

Fantastique! Un petit riad à 5min des souks et 15min de la place jemaa El fnaa, pas toutes de grandes chambres mais un excellent service et de très bons souvenirs. Le personnel est très accueillant et agréable et s'est occupé de tous nos déplacements (transferts, sortie en quad, taxi pour la nuit, nettoyage des vêtements, courses, commande à manger, etc et avec le sourire) Nous étions 12 et avons occupé tout le riad, le petit déjeuner est fait maison et très bien. Nous avons même eu droit à un joueur de guitare pour la soirée. Vraiment au top et surtout pour le prix

Ich habe an diesem Riad überhaupt nichts anzusetzen, es war einfach traumhaft schön und das personal einfach nur Top. Meine Freundin und ich sowie alle anderen Gäste sind so gut behandelt worden. Ich werde auf jeden fall wieder dort hin gehen. Wirklich sehr empfehlenswert.

Déçus

Nous avons été déçus par la taille de la chambre, l'humidité des lieux, le manque de confort du lit et le parcours à pied pour rejoindre le centre : 20 minutes à longer une route sans trottoir au milieu des voitures, des deux roues... à respirer les pots d’échappements. Le personnel est agréable.
