    The rooms at Riad El Blida are cozy and comfortable, perfect for a relaxing stay. I loved the private bathroom with a refreshing shower and complimentary toiletries. The air conditioning in the rooms ensured a cool and pleasant temperature during the hot days. The city view from some rooms was just amazing, adding an extra charm to the accommodation. Having a seating area in all guest rooms was a great feature, providing a cozy spot to unwind.

    Personally, I found the tile/marble flooring in the dormitory room a bit cold underfoot.

    The hotel had an amazing terrace with a beautiful view, perfect for enjoying breakfast. The room was comfortable and well-equipped, providing everything I needed for a pleasant stay. the hotel's location was ideal, situated in the heart of a charming and atmospheric area.

    Finding the hotel was quite challenging as it lacked proper signage, making it difficult to locate. It would be helpful for the hotel to have clear directions or a map available to aid guests in finding their way.

    The hostel's unique location makes it a hidden gem in the medina. The facilities are excellent and the manager, Mehdi, goes above and beyond to make guests feel welcome. He organizes day tours and invites guests for tea on the terrace. The friendly neighbors and Mehdi's helpfulness adds to the overall experience.

    Absolutely nothing.

    I stayed at Riad El Blida for my 3-week trip in Morocco and it exceeded my expectations. The private room with a private bathroom was amazing, especially since it had hot water and solid water pressure in the shower. The included breakfast was delicious and the terrace offered stunning views of the city and mountains. Mehdi, the receptionist, was incredibly friendly and helpful, recommending great restaurants and organizing a mini tour of the old town for me. I felt like he genuinely cared about my stay and went above and beyond to help with any request.

    Can recommend this hotel.
