La ubicación perfecta, muy cerca del puerto y la puerta que da a la playa, la amabilidad del personal fue fantástica. Muy bonito el Riad y el desayuno increíble. Al Riad se entra por una tienda de alfombras

Había un poco de humedad en las habitaciones y por tanto eran un poco frías. Estábamos tan cerca de algún pub nocturno que se escuchaba la música hasta tarde. Pero con tapones se soluciona el problema.

Great location, lovely building and architecture, very friendly staff. Although there is some noise up to 11pm the area goes completely quiet from then on

Le riad était très bien situé, on pouvait tout faire à pied. L'accueil était génial, le personnel est très gentil et très chaleureux. Le petit déjeuner avec le thé à la menthe était délicieux

Le toilette était très proche du mur et il n'y avait presque pas d'insonorisation
