This is our 3rd year celebrating my birthday at this lovely venue, we absolutely love the Moroccan theme, the spa services are amazing, the rooms are gorgeous!!! The only reason I did not offer 5 stars is because the neighborhood no longer feels safe. When we arrived a very tattered person was creating a home in the dumpster 5-10 feet from the door. He eyed all the cars coming in and out as he pulled items from the dumpster. He remained there our entire stay. I could tell other customers were also a little uneasy as two were musicians and opted to bring their entire drum set up a flight of stairs to avoid leaving the items in the car. I would definitely not feel safe venturing out to the car without my fiance. Perhaps adding a security patrol might be useful...

Moroccan theme is well done in the rooms and around the property. Enjoyed the 2 good size pools, one outside, one enclosed hot pool. The hot mineral spring pools are the main reason we stayed here. Breakfast provided was satisfying and convenient. It’s a gem in a city that’s had better days.

Wonderful hidden gem!

Beautiful property! Loved the theme, the decor, the relaxing atmosphere, and how quiet it is. The bed and pillows were so comfortable. The free water, coffee, and lemonade were such nice touches, especially during this excessive heat. The pool and hot tub were both so relaxing and peaceful. Loved all the cool lounge areas and the personal DVD collection and ability to watch whatever you'd like to in your rooms was cool too. We did not partake in any of the spa treatments, but I imagine they are nice too. The hotel staff was super helpful and let us check in way early because we didn't want to leave our luggage in the car. So thankful for a beautiful stay!
