Excellent breakfast on the beautiful terrace. The staff was incredibly freindly and attentinate. From breakfast to fantastic good nigth sleep because of the mattresses and pillows.
Everything was fine and we will be back very soon with freinds.

The riad was lovely, in good condition, and very central. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. The breakfast set you up for the day, and the beds were comfortable after a long day. I would stay there again.
The only downside is that the walls are a little thin, so any noise outside your room can be heard, but I guess it's the same at any riad or hotel to be fair.

Everything about the riad was perfect. From the moment you arrive you are warm welcomed and treated as part of a family throughout your entire stay. Nelly will give you recommendations of places to visit, eat, experience as well as things to avoid and how to move safely around the city. The riad is in a perfect location, making the experience even better as you get to be part of the bustling market and the moroccan culture.
There is nothing not to like. They exceeded my expectations!!

Very good location, friendly and nice staffs, delicious breakfast, comfort and warm room. Just like home.
The mattress is kind of hard to me. The room is kind of too dark to me.

Very warm greeting from Mohammed who made us feel very welcome and got us settled into the Riad after a long day of travelling and finding our way through the medina. Rooms were very clean and breakfast each morning was a lovely touch.
Initially difficult to find the Riad as no signs outside the building

The staff (very, very, very helpful and pleasant as can be) and the decor of the Riad The host provided instructions to each person/tour guide on how to help with our luggage and for pick up for excursions...it gets tricky inside the maze where the Riad sets. She made sure we were comfortable.
Water bottles were not offered DAILY as a courtesy, especially after being told not to brush your teeth with or to drink the faucet water.

The Raid was beautiful and so close to the medina. We booked taxis with the Riad vanilla and it was so well organised would definitely recommend as itd be hard to find alone. Hussein checked us in and greeted us with Moroccan tea when we arrived and showed us around the Riad. Its beautiful, the rooms are spacious and beds super comfy. We were able to have breakfast on the rooftop every morning and the breakfast was very filly with all sorts of pastry/bread/pancakes. You can use the hot tub on the rooftop anytime and Hussein will set it all up. We also organised a Hammam and meal through the Riad as recommended by Nelly and it was a great experience and so relaxing. We had the best experience at Riad vanilla, they were so helpful, welcoming and friendly could not recommend it enough

The staff were fabulous, so helpful and friendly. I can't praise them highly enough. The riad and rooms are beautiful and so close to the lively market, and yet a haven of tranquility from the bustle outside. Nice breakfast that you could have as late as you liked and they really tried to do everything perfect.
A tiny thing but I wanted the jacuzzi to be of a colder temperature to use to cool down while sunbathing.

An absolutely wonderful stay. The staff were certainly the best part, Nelly the owner was a delight, Abdul & Houssein were so lovely, and catered to absolutely anything we needed and more. It was my partners Birthday and they arranged a beautiful cake, and sang happy birthday. I also booked the hammam for us both which we had never had before, it was such a great experience we really loved it. The rooms were clean, beautifully decorated and overall so peaceful. Thank you for a wonderful stay :)

Very friendly staff and authentic Morocco experience. Two minute walk to the central Square that was the heart of the city.
No elevator but I guess that wouldnt be a real Riad. Center area did not have a garden and was not open to the sky.
