Our stay at this riad was overall just okay, but there are a few things I really wish I had known before booking. The biggest issue was that guests are required to leave their room key at the front desk every time they go out. Staff is supposed to let you back in, but on multiple occasions we were left waiting outside for 20–30 minutes at night because they were asleep. As a group of three women in our 20s, this felt uncomfortable and honestly a bit scary—especially since the walk through the Medina to reach the riad is already quite dark and isolated. We were usually just coming back from dinner or shopping at the market, so it wasn’t unusually late. The breakfast was also underwhelming. Nothing terrible, but not memorable. Another thing to note: cigarette smoke is noticeable. It’s the first thing we smelled when entering, and as non-smokers it wasn’t the most pleasant welcome. We adjusted, but it’s something to consider if you’re sensitive to smoke. On the positive side, the staff was friendly enough, and the rooms were cleaned daily and kept tidy. Overall, the experience was fine—but because of the late-night access issue, I would personally look at other options next time.

Made welcome as if I was family

The staff could not have been more helpful. I arrived late after a long train journey from Tangier, was hungry and had gotten lost a bit. They made me supper, even though the kitchen was closed and even brought it up to my room. It’s like I was family. Also, they arranged for an airport transfer which had to be at 3:00, and the host got up at that hour to open the door and make sure I was well on my way.

Great service here, Aziz particularly was very helpful. However, a few extra charges here and there for no reason eg 22dh for a water bottle and additional tax on arrival despite paying online. Decent location, a bit of a walk and lots of the tourist attractions are near by, the only thing is that is it very difficult to first find the place and then to find a taxi nearby whilst there. Decent breakfast however could have more options as was served same thing everyday. Overall good stay for the low price that it is, can’t expect more.

Breakfast was only served from 8:30 am-10:30am, so I didn’t get a chance to eat breakfast everyday, because my tours were booked and pick up time was 8 am. Rooms were clean although they were small, wifi was available. Close to Kasbah you can walk, but it’s not safe in the night if you’re alone.

The place itself was okay, but the location made things extremely difficult. It’s tucked away with two entrances, and none of the taxi drivers knew where it was—I constantly got lost and ended up being scammed by people who offered to “help” the drivers. It added a lot of unnecessary stress to my trip. They advertised a pool, but it turned out to be more of a small water hole—not what you’d expect. The owner also quoted me 100 MAD for a taxi, then suddenly changed it to 150 MAD, which felt dishonest and like a red flag. The air conditioning was poor—in the Marrakesh heat, the room never really cooled down and I was sweating through the night. Water pressure was mediocre. Overall, it wasn’t a comfortable stay. It’s also far from the city center, so you’ll end up spending a lot on taxis and wasting time navigating. It really put a damper on those days of my holiday. I would not recommend this place, especially for first-time visitors or those wanting convenience and comfort.

Das Riad Ajebel ist ein sehr schönes authentisches Riad. Wir hatten ein schönes Zimmer mit Bad und allem was man braucht. Das Zimmer war sauber und wurde jeden Tag gereinigt. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilft bei allen Fragen weiter. Jeden Morgen gab es ein leckeres marokkanisches Frühstück 😋. Da es ein kleines Riad ist, ist es dort sehr familiär, was uns gut gefallen hat. Anke und Aziz heißen ihre Gäste sehr herzlich willkommen. Wir haben uns total wohl gefühlt und würden jederzeit wieder hier buchen 😎👍.

オーナーの方も、その他のスタッフも、皆さん優しくて、雰囲気が良かったです。 パリの空港から飛行機に乗る間際(マラケシュ空港到着3時間前くらい)に予約したのに、直ちに、空港からホテルまでの有料送迎必要かどうかなど、ホテルから連絡が来て、飛行機に乗ってドアが閉まるまでの間に、送迎をお願いするためにメッセージを送り、きちんと到着地で迎えがあり、良かったです。旧市街の外側に面してるのでタクシーから降りてすぐでスーツケースを石畳の上を引きずらなくて良いし、旧市街地の中心地からは離れてるが、散策にはちょうど良い距離で、楽しめました。値段もリーズナブルで、初めてマラケシュに行く友人に是非勧めたいです!
