Two gents who hosted me were as kind as they could be.
Overall I found Moroccan people to be genuinely kind, welcoming and hard working.
If I could rate my trip to Marrakesh solely by its people, I would rate 10 out of 10.
This Riad room was wonderful overall
Roomy, only has 5 rooms in the building so I received a wonderful personal attention from the hosts.
I give 3 out of 5 for the following reasons:
1) location - it's inside the "wall" Media (downtown or old city) where most Americans would find somewhat challenging. Even for someone like me who has been to over 50 countries worldwide, it was initially scary to find its location, tucked in the corner of a small alley way. Once you go inside, it's all safe, but the surrounding is the opposite. For those who are looking for REAL Marrakesh experience, I highly recommend this Riad. For those who are used to the American way of life (its convenience), stay in the "new world" neighborhood some blocks away from Medina. I usually prefer latter and I instantly regretted getting this Riad, but at the end of my trip, I was glad I stayed there. I got used to the surroundings and narrow busy dark streets to get to the Riad.
2) Breakfast wasn't served until 9AM. Again, perhaps it's the Marrakesh way. One morning I had to miss it because I had an early day, and second day I requested if I could have it at 830 and they gladly accommodated that. Breakfast was lovely but I am not sure about serving it outside
