In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths

- Rooftop breakfast and meals — Breakfast on the terrace with panoramic views gets consistent praise, and the on-site restaurant serves appetising local food.

Worth weighing
3 to weigh- No pets allowed — If you're travelling with an animal, this riad won't work—pets are not permitted on site.
- Check-in window is broad but fixed — Check-in runs from 14:00 to 23:59, so very late arrivals after midnight will need to plan accordingly.
- Smoking not permitted on site — The entire property is non-smoking, which may be a drawback for smokers used to lighting up on a terrace.
