My stay at Riad El Walida was a good experience, with a perfect central location that made it easy to explore Marrakesh. The room was comfortable and thoughtfully equipped, although I did find it a bit inconvenient that some amenities were not readily available (like an iron or hairdryer). The staff were genuinely warm and made me feel welcomed, with a special mention to Hamza, who was always eager to assist. Overall, I felt at home in the Medina, despite some minor noise disturbances from the street.

My stay at Riad El Walida was nothing short of fantastic. The location allowed me to be immersed in the heart of the Medina, which made exploring so easy and engaging. The room I stayed in was cozy and beautifully decorated, plus the breakfast each morning was a good surprise. The only downside was the access to the building, as there's no key for the main door, which made returning late a bit cumbersome.
