“Memorable stay in Fes!”
The best ever manager! A berber from Ifrane:) We loved him! He was taking a really good care of us, making all our wishes to come true. He speaks perfectly English and it was very interesting to speak with him. Very kind and polite guy. After several days together in this Dar we felt like one family☺️👍🏼

“Amazing value for money”
Amazing value for money. The host is very friendly and helpful and will make his beat to make you feel comfortable. Location was amazing one street from the main street. The Riad is small but we were tired of the big ones that are so cold.
