"Pros: I have traveled all over the world and been to many great resorts and 5 star hotels but this is the first time I’ve ever stayed at a Riad; it was the greatest place I’ve ever been. Youssef and his nephew Mohammed made this place spectacular for me. When I arrived, I had broken my selfie stick in Merzouga so I lamented this fact over a mint tea over a pleasant conversation with Youssef. He immediately sends his wonderful young nephew to my aid and within minutes I was riding with him on his motorcycle all over Fez and we solved the problem before I even unpacked! This was the moment that I realized that I was dealing with the greatest people in this country. I returned to find that I would be given the room right next door to the pool where I would have access to it 24 hours a day! This is my dream! I get to be in a palace and lie in the pool of a massive living room area and play my travel music. It was so incredible. And unlike so many places in Morocco, they brought me wine! All I had to do was pay them in advance. This is a huge deal for me as I got to drink white wine at the pool after midnight and lounge around like I was so important. I had the time of my life here! My greatest regret is that I only booked 3 nights here; I wished I booked a whole week!
The place is just so gorgeous and I love the beautiful colors everywhere. They would serve me my meals anywhere I asked. I like the terrace area because the skyline over Fez is just lovely! Mohammed is such a sweetheart too. He would bring me all of my food and could not wait to serve me. I asked him to join me a few times too because he is so fun to talk to and loves hearing you tell stories.
Sometimes I would come up with one of my fun ideas and they would make it happen. Like I wanted to lie out and tan up on the terrace and these wonderful people brought me towels and a bucket of ice and set up the pillows and reclining areas to better suit me. I would do anything to live like this forever!
Cons: It is perfect! No complaints at all." ~Toby
