A guide to the hotel
Enter from the narrow alley through a large wooden door into the riad hallway. Through an arch then through into the traditionally tiled courtyard with wall fountain and 12' plunge pool. There is a shaded seating area (bhou) here where one can lounge and listen to the fountain away from the heat of the day. One of the double bedrooms and the twin bed room are located off this spacious courtyard. Stairs lead up from the hallway to the open-air gallery, which houses another dining option with low table, and cushions overlooking the courtyard. Round the corner is the large salon with sofas, a round dining table, open log fireplace, WiFi, Satellite TV and DVD. A Juliet balcony overlooks the courtyard. The third (double) bedroom is located off the gallery. By the salon is a separate utility room which houses the honesty fridge (wine, beers, champagne, water and soft drinks). Up another flight of stairs to the riad's terraces. Here there is another dining area beneath a shaded pergola as well as a traditional Berber tent with more seating options!
