    There was nothing we didn't like.

    Amina and Abdila were wonderful hosts, Dar el Arfaoui is a spectacular traditional old house with really beautiful artistic features. The place was easy to find, a great location, very clean, everything functioned perfectly, and the breakfasts were the best we've experienced anywhere in Morocco. For sure we'll return to stay in Dar el Arfaoui again.

    We ran out of hot water in the shower pretty quickly, but that’s something that we got fairly used to in Morocco especially since there’s 5 of us.

    Amazing place to stay to get a more authentic Moroccan experience. The hosts were so welcoming, when we arrived they served us tea, homemade cookies, dates and walnuts. And the breakfast in the morning was delicious and plentiful. The Dar had such intricate architecture and tile and wood craftsmanship, it was such a cool experience to stay in midst of such art.

    The place looks really authentic with remarkable architectural details. The lady who runs it is extremely kind and helpful. It is not luxury type riad but we really appreciated its character. It is well located - close to Fes's old town market but also close to secure public parking which was handy as we traveled by car. The neighbourhood is quiet and peaceful.

    Some bad smell comes from outside when opening the window in the room.

    I was hosted by this beautiful family during Ramadan, and they were so kind to share the meals before sunrise and after sunset with me: it was so special! They could also give me good advices about the medina (like the Hammam for example) and showing me the neighbourhood around. The house is beautiful beyond words, breakfast (also during Ramadan) was great and the room very comfortable.

    The stairs can be quite narrow and dark...but it´s an old historical house, not a modern hotel. Part of it´s charm:).

    Lovely stylish "dar" in the very heart of Fes medina. Your stay will be enhanced by the care of a lovely moroccan family. Nice comfy rooms, rich breakfast, great patio to sit in. The host lady even came for us to the edge of medina (cannot go there by car). Recommended!

    Great riad and wondeful & kind owners. Went above and beyond with waiting for me (my flight had a delay and I arrived in the middle of the night) and even surprised me with some tasty food. The room was good, breakfast was delicious, really satisfied.
