the staff showed constant care, even assisting with luggage from the taxi very late at night i found the location to be quite central, a short walk to the souks the riad itself presented beauty and attention to detail.

The laundry service costs seemed a bit off from initial quotes. the overall experience overshadowed this minor detail.
