Hamid, the host, and his wife, are very kind and friendly. The riad itself is fine, not luxurious, it's simple... but includes all the basics. We were comfortable! :) The location is good but considering it is inside the medina (not on the beachfront). Everything is close by and there are many restaurants and bars nearby.

On booking, it says that the riad is located on the beachfront... and that's not true. It is nestled in the medina, so that description is not at all correct. It has a terrace with a view of the sea, but that doesn't mean it's on the beachfront... Breakfast is not included (it costs 7 euros so we decided to have breakfast elsewhere). If you hire the taxi service to the airport, it's 20 euros, but since the taxi cannot access the medina, a guy accompanies you to the taxi both ways, and you have to pay him around 2 or 3 euros (to keep in mind and bring coins).
