    Looks like shower drain is little bit clogged and you can smell the sewage in bathroom. And of all places we been in Morocco this one had least good breakfast.

    Overall Riad was nice, great terrace, good value for money, clean and lovely stuff. Also good location and easy to find.

    The breakfast was a bit basic. We would have preferred if it included olive oil and pure butter and not margarine. The 'harcha' was great though.

    My family and I really enjoyed our stay. The staff were nice and accomodating. The riad is easy to locate and all the sights are easily accessible.

    The lighting in our room was a little dark but that’s only a small thing. Breakfast was filling but not the best we’ve had (no eggs in this one) but still started our day well and nice coffee too.

    Lovely Riad, and our room was decorated nicely with a lovely tiled bathroom. Zak helped us with navigating Fes and booked the most incredible tour to the desert that was so magical! (The whole trip included a handy transfer to Marrakesh after which I highly recommend). Lovely rooftop for a quiet evening and pretty easy to navigate into the medina from the property. Close to some nice restaurants and ATMs as well. Thanks!

    The bed is a little hard, but we still slept OK. I think the hard beds are normal in morocco.

    The staff were extremely nice and helpful. The location is in the medina but away from the serious hustle and bustle. The riad is old but decorated nice. The breakfast was very filling and tasty.

    The breakfast is made out of things bought out of a supermarket, and only one tee or one coffee is included, and depending on who is doing the coffee it will differ in quality. The bathroom drainage for the 3 person room should have a check as the watter is not draining.

    This is an old building transformed in a Riad. Many told me this is not the best place in Fez to stay as the people in that part of the town are not to be trusted. Maybe is true, but we avoided to stay out in small groups around the riad. The place itself is wonderful, the staff was more than helpfully, rooms clean and quiet. Hot water at any hour, working air conditioning. Saaf is great to talk to with great knowledge of the meddina and always there when needed.

    For accessing the Riad which is located in an alley one has to at least temporarily park on the motorable street near certainF food joints. The staff of the joints hassle you soon as you stop. then ask for parking charges. The Riad has a one man staff who is the receptionist, cook, server. They did NOT provide any electric kettle in the room. WIFI was extremely poor. The one man staff keeps a sullen non friendly attitude. Not at all helpful or to address the issues. when I came for the breakfast which was inclusive in the rate, no one was to to be found. Finaally managed to wake up someone sleeping on a couch behind a curtain, who when enquired said the designated staff needs to be found. He did manage to find him and the person did manage to produce a breakfast in a jiffy. Mind you all this happening at 8:45 and we were getting late for paid guided walking tour. Turned out we did have to spend an additional night at Fes but decided to move to a different accomodation even f inconvenienly. Plus there is an all pervasive foul smell all the time but probably that was due to the "old and famous" fes Tanneries.

    The location was okay. A public parking is available at reasonable rates in a walking distance

    The room is dark, cold and it smells very bad from the sewage. The bathroom has many carpets and does not look clean. Breakfast has no eggs, only sweet pastry.

    There was a staff member who made us feel really uncomfortable. We don't mind trying to get us to book tours through them but when we said we have booked a free walking tour (like we do in every city we visit) the staff member was telling us how terrible they are (it wasn't) and how we should book through him. He seemed high most of the time which was odd.

    This is a hard one for us to review. The room is great, it is spacious and very clean, the bed is comfortable and the bathroom was clean. The place is lovely but had a strange feeling as we think we were the only ones here. We didn't see anyone else the whole time, even the staff were barely around.

    It was a delightful stay, Saad and Hicham made our stay memorable, they helped us arrange an excursion to the desert which was amazing. Rooms are specious and the property has a beautiful view from the roof top also the Moroccan traditional dishes served at Riad taj Salma are priceless. Thank you so much for your good hospitality and your warm welcome really feels like home away from home

    Shower didn't drain well. Hot water was inconsistent. Hot water came back when I mentioned the problem to the owner.

    The staff were very friendly and even went above and beyond to pick up items in the Medina and CTM bus station for me. The terrace and main room were full of plants and very pleasant to hang out in. The location just inside the Medina is convenient as you don't need to haul bags far from the road. If any issues come up, the staff quickly handles them. The room was large and comfortable for the price. Good people and place to chill on the terrace with a good view.
