In terms of value for money this Riad is a good choice. Its location is ideal - quiet in the old town medina but only a hundred yards from a taxi drop off - and good for getting to places in and out of the medina. The rooms are fine for the price we paid. Not luxurious but things worked and the beds were comfortable. We had room 4 on the top floor - exactly 50 steep stairs to get to it so not for anyone with health issues but very quiet and private. We thought some of the other rooms might have been noisy from the central courtyard but this was only our feeling - we had peace and quiet. The roof terrace is pleasant although whilst having some laundry drying there most of the day is environmentally friendly we thought it not so attractive. There are some views but it is very much overlooked by other riads nearby. What makes this a special place is the attitude of the staff - their desire to be helpful and attentive was exemplary. From Merriem the manageress through to Mohammed and another guy whose name was something like Ayub - sorry this is so remiss of me - and the kitchen staff who opened the door for us with smiles, everyone seemed prepared to go the extra yard to make our experience so special. Mint tea was offered or just appeared when we returned from excursions and Merriem's recommendations for activities and restaurants were brilliant. Breakfasts were good too and they accommodated our request for a repeat of some special local doughnut-like specialities. Thanks to Merriem we had a great local guide for the medina, an enjoyable hammam experience, a wonderful cookery class, a taxi day out to Volubilis which was a highlight and visited a ceramic factory with brilliant artisans at work. Her restaurant recommendations were all spot on for us as non-meat eaters - we have reviewed them separately. So go for the location and the helpfulness of the staff..... and value for money, certainly in the room we were allocated - number 4.
