“This riad struck me as a peaceful haven, tucked into the heart of local life yet moments from the souk's energy. I especially like that cooking workshops offer a direct taste of Moroccan culture, enhanced by rooftop dining. Its labyrinthine design feels genuinely Moroccan, a refreshing contrast to more generic stays.”
