Inaccurate rating and description of property. The room and fittings tired and more befitting for backpackers on a hippie trail. Basic amenities missing, no power sockets or heating during this cold May.

Nydelig Riad. Grei takterrasse. Flott og hjelpsom betjening. Midt i gamlebyen (Medina-en). Begynner å bli litt slitt.

El alojamiento bonito, tiene un restaurante donde se come muy bien y a buen precio, y dispone de habitaciones sencillas pero prácticas. Pero la limpieza de la habitación daba que desear. Las sabanas y toallas no se pasaban por lejía, estaban manchadas. No se barría o fregaba bajo la cama y la cantidad de polvo y pelusas que tenia el cabezal de la cama era de no haberlo limpiado en años. Si se centraran en la limpieza de las habitaciones el alojamiento mejoraría mucho.

Beau ryad mais décevant

Tres jolies chambres mais odeurs humidité gênantes Pour les massages très chers et vous pouvez trouver bien mieux pour beaucoup moins cher. Réservations massages oubliés ou non transmises....forfait non respecté...enfin le massage en lui même correct. Pour les chambres, aspirateur inconnu ....
