Wow, the initial impression which greets you when you walk through the door is nothing short of breathtaking. The more time you spend looking at the interior of the central courtyard the more impressed you are with the extraordinary detail of the workmanship. It's cavernous! Just thinking about the time it took to create the interior of this stunning riad defies imagination. The rooms were very spacious and comfortable. So why four and not five stars? Well I struggled with writing this review, but I had to place it in the context of the other five riads/dars we stayed in and it is about overall experience and impressions. I felt the internal spaces were a bit 'reverential', more like a library where you have to speak in hushed tones than a social space. It felt awkward to sit there, even at breakfast listening to the rattle of our cutlery echoing around the building. My friends had a room which had windows to the front onto the street, and they suffered some street noise from groups of local youths who gathered outside. My room only had windows into the internal spaces and I was not troubled by noise. No full length mirror, but that was a theme repeated elsewhere. There is no doubt that this is an extraordinary place, absolutely beautiful, and we were treated with courtesy and respect during our two night stay, but I have to be honest and present my view of where it fell slightly short of our expectations. Entirely personal opinion, as reviews are by their very nature.
