My stay at the Riad Arabic House & Spa was a mixed bag. On the positive side, the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly, making the experience welcoming. However, the location was a bit of a challenge as it took 15-20 minutes to walk to the main square, and the room was smaller than I expected with some basic amenities missing.

Although the location gave me a glimpse into authentic Marrakech life, it was a bit far from the main attractions. Walking to Jemma el Fnaa took about 20 minutes, which got tiring after a long day.

I had a lovely experience at Riad Arabic House & Spa! My room was clean and tidy, although a bit smaller than expected, and I appreciated the quiet ambiance at night. The terrace was stunning, but what really stood out was the really good staff-Aziz, Houssein, and Fatime were incredibly kind and always eager to help. I truly enjoyed my stay, though the location required some navigating to get to the main square; it was about a 15-20 minute walk.

While the location is close to the center, I found it quite difficult to find my way around the maze-like streets of the Old Medina. It's not the safest area due to traffic, with motorbikes zooming by, especially if you're not familiar with the layout.

I enjoyed breakfast on the rooftop terrace, but it was quite simple and left me wanting more variety. The typical Moroccan breakfast was nice but could have included a few more balanced options.
