short walk great location friendly staff pretty roof terraces small room sound insulation floor drain
The location is great. It is very quiet. The souks are only a short walk. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is served every morning on the pretty roof terraces. It was a joy to stay there.
The room was really small. The sound insulation from people walking in the corridor was non-existent. The water in the shower did not go down the drain properly. I was told I had to remove the lid in the floor drain when showering and put it back after, to keep cockroaches from entering.

mixed feelings about the stay

broken fixtures low pressure
the staff were really lovely at this location.
The shower pressure was practically nonexistent, a huge disappointment. Everything in the room felt quite old, and several of the fixtures were broken which was a worry.
