How guest reviews work
Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

Verified reviewIt was value for money. The host was very friendly and helpful. It can be quite difficult to get to. He tried to make me feel as safe as possible.
It was a bit hard to get to. And there was also obstacles along the way (the locals) trying to confuse or get some tips out of you. I suggest you follow the sign that says RCIF RIAD until you reach an open space and then make 2 left turns while following the meandering path.

Verified reviewI loved everything about this riad: the bed was comfy, I had a private bathroom, the room had an electric heater, there was a nice breakfast and the host was helpful and kind. And then there's s the beautiful traditional common room. All in all, a wonderful experience.
It really is impossible to find it on your own as Google Maps don't show many of the small dead end streets, including this one. However, this is the case with all the accommodation in the maze of the Medina and luclily the host is here to show you the way.

Verified reviewThe husband and wife team staff is great! The riad is quiet. WiFi worked for me wonderfully.
It was a struggle when I tried to reach the riad on my own. The Fès medina takes some effort for one to get around. The riad was discreetly run and not advertised or with signs posted in street corners like some other riads do. But once I found the riad no more issues for me to get in, get out and get around in the medina (and back to the riad).

Verified reviewVery friendly people who run the hostel. They will always try to help you.
The riad is very hidden, but they offer a pickup service, take it!!! You will not find the riad if you are not familiar with this area. You can't rely on Google Maps in this medina.

Verified reviewThe price is decent. The location is good , but really hard to find. There is no signs or anything that can guide you. If you follow Google maps you won’t get there. Once you understand the way through the neighborhood gets easier.
The bathroom had bad smell. The shower was broken and you needed to hold the rosette. There was no curtains aswell.

Verified reviewOmg the architecture of this rijad blew me away. It's about 500 years old & has many original features. Just breath taking. The staff couldn't have done more to accommodate me. I'm a solo traveller & they escorted me to & from restaurants on request with no fee. They left me alone but always made sure I was doing OK. They supplied a great guide for me for me for the day. The breakfast was all freshly brought. The biligual staff were really friendly & very down to earth. I liked everything. Even the bed was massively comfortable. Plus there was constant hot water. Great location in the medina too.
There's nothing I didn't like.

Verified reviewOverall amazing experience. Everyday breakfast at the riad was one of the things that made this stay authentic and great. Younis and Fatima's hospitality is on whole another level and I felt literally like home. I had some tours/trips booked in advance with other agencies and they helped me to navigate medina (the old town) to get to the meeting place since Google Maps barely works and it's like a labyrinth so this was amazingly helpful. Roof of the riad is something you should not miss since the views during sunrise and sunset at so good! During the night it was so quiet I think I didn't "feel" that quietness ever in my life. Some of the reviews say it is hard to reach it and find it, however, it is easily reached from Place R'cif (tell taxi to leave you there). However, in any case, I would recommend you to ask through Booking messages in advance for them to meet you at Place R'cif and lead you to the riad for the first time. P.S When coming back to the riad, you might get approached by random people wanting to "help you" (and ask for some money in the end) to find the place where are you going, because this riad is located in not that touristic and more local Moroccan family place, just tell them that you know where are you going and that you don't need help. I ended up having a few quality conversation with some of them and they didn't get any money from me, of course!
There was no hot water during the stay, however, I didn't mind and didn't ask them what was the issue. Probably if I asked they would fix it. Shampoo and shower gel don't come either, however, if you ask them they would give you. Also, there are many small shops in the streets of medina and in every you can get small ketchup-sized shampoo and shower gel packages.

Verified reviewIt is such a beautiful road. Roof top is amazing with unique views. They came to pick me up at a safe and easy to find location.
There should be furniture on their amazing roof top with one of the best views in Fes.

Verified reviewNice, clean, quiet, safe Riad. Excellent wifi for online work / meetings. Brilliant breakfast. Easy full ten points for the lovely hosts.
The "Large Twin Room" was rather small corridor shaped room with low ceiling.

Verified review- Friendly staff, they are helpful.
- it’s in the middle of the Medina where it can be hard to find, but if you are good with remembering streets, it shouldn’t be a problem. - uncomfortable bed/matras - if you prefer a relaxed place, don’t choose this, because once you put one step outside, there will be immediately kids outside trying to ‘show you around’ but eventually in the end, they ask money from you.
