Guest reviews

Pros: great vibes, breakfast, location, staff. Curtains on beds and communal toilets and showers outside of rooms. A nice common area on main floor and a cool rooftop terrace. I loved the communal breakfast and evening tea. It's a great opportunity to meet people and make plans together. The staff was lovely.

Areas of improvement: a fan in the room would be nice. The showers were poorly lit and had a bit of a smell.

Fantastic staff, and loved my stay here. Breakfast was fantastic and an opportunity to meet other guests if travelling solo. The staff also helped with a transfer to Marrakesh, which was more cost-effective than organising it myself. The location is perfect in the Medina, which has a friendly, easy-going vibe.

The shower smelt pretty bad in the evening for some reason. I kept the windows open, which really helped. Probably just old drainage in the Medina.

Mood molto carino, ostello bellissimo esteticamente, spazi comuni organizzati molto bene. Noi abbiamo alloggiato nell'appartamento interno all'ostello e ci siamo trovati molto bene: spazi puliti e belli, bagno e doccia approvatissimi.

L'unica pecca che abbiamo da riportare è che l'appartamento puzza di umido, se non si tengono finestre e porta aperte può diventare davvero fastidioso.

Lo mejor fue el buen rollo que tenían tanto los trabajadores, su dueño que andaba por allí y la gente en general. La decoración es muy bonita.

Nuestra habitación necesitaba renovar algunos artículos de menaje, necesita pequeñas reparaciones y tratar las humedades. El colchón está para cambiar. Y que no hablarán nada nada de castellano. Francés, inglés, árabe, alemán, italiano pero no castellano.

L’accueil très agréable, à l écoute, efficace : parfait. L’appartement terrasse : vaste, joliment décoré, parfaitement fonctionnel et propre. Le petit déjeuner convivial et le thé de 18 heures très agréable pour rencontrer d’autres voyageurs.

Very nice hostel with nice guests!

Very nice hostel with nice guests!

The staff were amazing! They accommodated us even though I got the dates wrong. We stayed in a separate area for the first 2 nights and it was very clean and the breakfast was amazing.

The man hostel is run down and not as clean as the smaller hostel. There wasn’t a breakfast and the beds weren’t comfortable. It had a loft that my son used and it was hot with no air circulation.
