Riad A La Belle Etoile

Clean, easy to access, friendly staff

No light in bathroom, even with the bulb on. CHeck in not as indicated on booking. Host was not at the property nor responded until much later on. Had to leave suitcases in car and wait to get a response

Location

Internet

the Riad is very beautiful and the host is lovely and is positioned close to the beach (5-10 min to the beach)

the wifi was down due to a network problem and the location is a bit far from Rabat city. You can use only taxis to get there or you can go by foot in a 40 min walk on a very busy bridge (where you can’t breathe properly)

Rita was very nice, good location, good breakfast, very value for the money, nice terrace

Room was quite old, it was raining inside the window, no wifi

Architecture, decor

The sign could be larger for easier location

The owner is very nice, but the beautiful room is very somber, the light is almost null. It was also very cold in the room and the little heating she provided was not enough. The bathroom is tiny and so dark it is impossible to put any make up on!

The host Rita was exceptionally friendly and could not have been more helpful sorting out personal matters. The riad is ideally situated within minutes of local restaurants and shops and it takes 10-12 minutes to walk to the pier where you can cross the river to Rabat on a small rowing boat or to the tram stop. A freshly prepared Morrocan breakfast is served on the terrace, with a fantastic 360 degrees view of the Oudayas across the Bou Regreg river, of the sea and of Salé town and Rabat. The Fès room was very clean, quiet and spacious, with a large and comfortable bed and a beautiful bathroom.

we liked Rita and also the person in charge of parking on the street

Safae was a charming hostess. Her breakfasts and the one dinner we had were excellent. The rooftop view was stunning.

Had difficulty finding a nearby restaurant on the first evening and were glad that Safae offered to cook dinner on the second evening.
