Rooms were a little tired and we had to switch rooms due to a leaky ceiling in the bathroom. It was very rainy out prior to our arrival. Staff went out of their way to accommodate us.

Location, location, location! But wait, thats not all! The staff at the Riad could not have been better. The check in was good, breakfast was fantastic, with lovely views from the terrace, and checkout was a breeze. And better still, the price! Thank you Riad Zaitouna for a memorable stay.

Very good property & very well located for family stay. Parking is 10-15 min walk so I would recommend hire someone for baggage. Very good breakfast with terrace beautiful view.
No real complaint but bathroom could be more cleaner & blanket was smelling little.
However I would stay here again

Aziz was so nice. A sweet guy at heart. He made me feel really comfortable being a solo female traveller. Yes the room smelt a bit damp, but then what can one expect as its an old building. It helped that I knew this before from reviews so knew what to expect. The breakfast was superb and the views from the rooftop to die for. The gentleman who cooked and served breakfast was so nice too. Gave him a tip to show my appreciation. Thank you, Aziz and all at Zaitouna.

Cute riad with rooftop views
This riad is located in the medina so be prepared to climb uphill and stairs with your luggage. Our host spoke to a local who helped guide us to the riad in the medina and helped with our luggage for a small tip.
Overall, the suite was decent with comfortable beds and pillows. There is a smell from the bathroom but that is due to the plumbing style and closing the bathroom door resolves the issue. The room was cool as expected in the winter, but the heater and blankets were fine.
Breakfast and the views from the rooftop were both lovely. Our host recommended a restaurant to us for dinner and it was top notch. Wasn't noisy at all (visited in January).
Overall a good stay.

The staff were very helpful and responsive. Unfortunately, the room had a bad smell. Also, it had rained a lot while staying there and there was water leaking through the window. When we asked to move to another room, we were provided with a bigger room on the first floor. Lastly, we had arranged with the front staff for help with our luggage the last day as we needed to catch an early bus out of town. We were assured that it was scheduled. We never saw this person and had to ask for a second staff person to help. We made it to our bus in time, but could have done it without the stress. Maria M. Smith

I love the location and the big bed and terrace. My only complaint is we couldn't get hot water in the shower and the key was difficult. I've stayed here before and will again.

Great stay
The Riyadh was quite quaint. The only thing that was awkward was breakfast is on the rooftop and there was too many bees. Otherwise stay was great. Make sure to wear good shoes. It is quite the trek up to the Riyadh.
