Excellent location, within walking distance of the Kasbah, city tour bus, and the ferry port. The hosts were beyond wonderful and went out of their way to help find alternative travel options after weather-related cancellations, especially when I couldn’t reach the transportation company. The service was highly customizable and personalized. I initially booked because of the location, but I would return for the exceptional hospitality.

Had a terrible smell (like sewage) in our room, staff was not very attentive. Never got back to us after a request we made and we were limited on time, so we let it go. Location was convenient. Has an elevator which is nice. Otherwise, would not recommend overall.

The decor and staff are wonderful. It is also in a great location. The breakfast is not as good as it used to be, however. It used to be in the main dining room and included a lively scrambled egg dish. Now only hard- boiled egg plus a lot of bread and some fruit. So please make breakfast better. Plus room number 4 is quite noisy. I would choose another for sure.

First of all, my mother and I were cut with a glass on top of one of the restaurants tables; staff dismissed these. My mother bled a lot from her cut. Brought it to staff including front desk staff. 2ndly, towels seemed old and beige from not being properly washed-white origin. 3rd, toilet smell bad. Otherwise, room was nice but I do consider it too expensive for the service received.
