Usually I wouldn't book a hostel, but a single with breakfast was available for an excellent price. I grabbed it. The patio and wifi are superb. Next door, the Medina awaits! What an experience.

Pas top, pour backpackers peu exigeants

La chambre pour deux que nous avions réservée avait un problème, on nous a proposé un dortoir avec 3 lits superposés aux ressorts très fatigués qui grinçaient très fort au moindre mouvement. Toilettes et salle de bain partagés, pas très grands et mouillés au sol. Seul atout véritable : la jolie terrasse, dont la vue n'est pas incroyable toutefois. Clairement pas un séjour exceptionnel, trop cher pour ce que c'est par rapport aux autres hôtels de Marrakech. Nous aurions apprécié un remboursement du prix de la chambre individuelle que nous n'avons pas pu avoir.
