"Great little find. The staff was friendly and helpful, speaking to us in English, French and Spanish [multi-lingual group]. Staff helped us with directions as well as organize long-distance taxi services. Breakfast comprised of a series of breads and coffee/tea. The building, which appears to be rather other but well-kept, is located near one of the entrances of the medina. The rooms were comfortable, although the blankets seemed a little musty. There is hot water, but I believe it sometimes...
