Tout était charmand, l’accueil, l’espace disponible et la propreté des lieux. Le déjeuner qui était servi le matin était aussi excellent.

Riad Safir
It’s situated within the medina which is ideal although you will need to walk a little way from the Main Street to access it. It was down a dirty alleyway with some cats and poo which wasn’t nice. It’s not their area but perhaps they may need to consider how to make that first area more appealing ...
