4/10 Fair

I made the reservations in February and received a confirmation. My credit card was charged which surprised me - the other riads want to be paid in cash. When we arrived, we were told they over booked - and were going to find us another riad close by. They found me a place; offered us apologies and lunch the next day (we were going to be out sight seeing); we were told the second riad would have us for the full 3 nights although the first room was not entirely what we wanted- but they were doing the best they could. We found out approximately 10pm the second night that we were being moved to yet another riad….the Andalous manager apologized; over the phone said he was going to stop by the next morning and tell us where we were going- he did not.show (apparently he went to Casablanca to pick up other guests) and did not communicate with the Alcazar folks about where we were going. Our bags were sitting by the reception desk. I guess the manager of the Alcazar was able to reach the manager from the Andalous; he sent a colleague to retrieve us and walk us over to Riad Sucrier. She tried to explain that it was a problem with Expedia and mis communication with booking. The whole experience with Andalous was a mess; I didn't appreciate moving twice and the lack of communication.

2/10 Poor

Husband & wife owners do NOT care about keeping this property nice - VERY rundown. Air con was broken in our room & had to be fixed (moved to a different room for the 1st night & bathroom wasn't properly stocked), rooftop deck dirty & broken furniture, tiles on step to dining room broken. Ladders laying around in hallway & on stairs. Whole place felt neglected - BEWARE photos on Expedia are VERY OLD. We would not stay there again or recommend it to anyone. Only good thing was the location within the Media but there are PLENTY of other Riads to choose from. Staying at this one was VERY disappointing (we were in Morocco a month & stayed at lovely places everywhere else).

Comfortable and welcoming riad
This was a great place to stay for exploring Fez. Everyone at the riad was helpful, friendly and accommodating. The first room we were given was not ideal for us, but we were able to change to a room which suited us better, thanks to the helpful and understanding staff. The food was excellent, particularly the wonderful dinners. Most visitors were only staying for a couple of nights, but we were there for a week and could therefore appreciate just how good this riad was. We felt completely at home.

The courtyard riad has a beautiful charm with a comfortable and nice dining area. The staff was helpful in arranging a full day tour for us in and about Fes and making airport transportation arrangements back to Casablanca for us. Few suggestions which I shared with the owner, smoking in the lobby and in rooms is not a pleasant smell for guests that don’t smoke.

Very easy to find (10 minute petit taxi 30 dirham to batha sq & walk for 2 minutes). A little tired, but spectacular Riad with beautiful, original tiles and windows throughout. Stayed in the batha room, a good size with a great semi private terrace. In room safe was not working, turning on the heating made the room smell sweaty, private bathroom is down one flight of stairs and had sporadic warm/hot water. Not in the heart of the Medina which we liked, easier to find, less intimidating. Construction across the street starts at 8.30am and ends when the sun goes down. Just pouring foundations in Feb 2019, so likely to be going on for awhile

4/10 Fair

The entrance hall and dining room were a beautiful space, which imcreased our excitement for our room. It was the end of ou trip, so we decided to book a better Hotel. The first room we got was a lot smaller than we expected. It was small, hair in the bathroom and no shower curtain. On the website it stated that we would have a safe and fridge in the room, whdoch we really wanted. Hence why we asked zhr next day shere fridge and safe were. Staff eas really polite and said we cpuld have another room, if we don't mind a double bed. We agreed and were happy with the service. Arriving at the second room later that day we had fridge and safe and a bigger room with a terrace. Horwever it was even dustier. Hair on the sheets. Bathroom looked grose and the matress was old. Air con did not work and the teracce looked like it has been a building site with pieces of wood in the corner. We were not able to stand up in the bathroom. I am 173cm so it isn't too much to ask for to stand straight while brushing your teeth and not showering kneeling. We don't want to critise everything. The staff was expectional. Cleaning staff and Rachid were most wonderful and very helpful throughout.The Riad haad a great breakfast. We felt very angry throughout our stay. The owner lied to us and said the guests before took the key with them and will post it, so we receive it the next day. It never srrivedand we found out, that the room was never used and we were lied to. This made us were uncomfortable.

Stay here
Our room in Dar Al Andalous was truly beautiful. We feel lucky to have been able to stay there for six nights. We especially wish to say how much we appreciated the manager Zehra. She was is lovely in spirit and helpful. We also appreciated the grace and friendliness of Rashid the waiter and doorman. We highly recommended that you choose the room which is listed with a jacuzzi because it is such a wonderful space.

A lovely Riad in Fes
This is a charming Riad not far from the Blue Gate. Our suite was a bit austere, but quite comfortable and spacious, with in room wi-fi which worked well. The owners and staff could not have been nicer and more accommodating. Breakfast and dinner featured Moroccan home cooking and were excellent. We really enjoyed our three night stay.

Lots of Potential but Disappointing
This place has the potential to be the best riad in Fes. The setting, the location, the building and the atmosphere is just amazing. Here are the problems: We asked for two separate beds but we were given one double bed (they called it a king but it was a double (137 cm x 187 cm size) and not a king size. The plumbing in our shower was broken. They tried to temporarily fix it but it was never fixed, so we were not able to take a decent shower for our four nights of stay. Don't be fooled by the images of the rooftop amenities. A layer of dust all over the furniture and no service on the rooftop. The owner is a nice guys but very cheap. Anything you want, even a box of tissues, you have to ask for it. TV (we didn't care much for watching it but it is advertised as an amenity) was broken in the room. We asked for the key to the safe several times (again advertised on the website included in a room), was never given to us. Breakfast is very very basic comparing to other places, no eggs or protein. The staff is really nice and accommodating but I received a very awkward hug from the gentleman helping with our bags on our way out right after I tipped him. I felt very uncomfortable. NOT PROFESSIONAL AT ALL.
