Good Riad; WiFi not reliable.
I have mixed feelings about this Riad.
Ups
- Nice decor. Beautiful building.
- Big room with an excellent heater.
- We always came back to a perfectly cleaned room.
- Youssef was a helpful fellow. At the same time he didn’t seem particularly interested in answering our questions (travel related) if we were not taking his travel offers.
- Good location, 15-20 mins from the core of the Médina.
Downs
- The WiFi didn’t work for us at all. We caught an open network and used it sparingly since it was open and was very weak anyways. Very frustrating.
- the water heater broke and we went without hot water for 1.5 days. We were given an electric kettle and a small tub. It got the job done but wasn’t fun. Once repaired, the heater worked well.
- No soap was provided. Apparently the hand soap was supposed to be used for showering. We had to run over to the closest shop to buy regular soap.
- Youssef set us up for a day trip to Meknès, Volubilis, and Moulay Idriss for 800 Dhs. The car and driver were good but we were taken to a grossly overpriced restaurant for lunch. Left a bad impression.
- We were quoted 1,600 for a transfer to Chefchaouen when we did it ourselves by private taxi for 600. That’s a big difference.
- The city tax was not included in the price. We had to pay cash and did not receive a receipt for it. Maybe that’s the norm.
- The breakfast was the standard fare.
