Staying at Riad Kalaa was a delightful experience. The beautifully designed rooms provided cozy comfort, and we were welcomed with refreshing mint tea and cookies. The darkness of the rooms added a hint of mystery, and having fresh fruit for us to enjoy was a lovely touch. However, the rooms could benefit from brighter lighting.

Service

The service at Riad Kalaa was impeccable. The staff members were friendly and helpful, ensuring our needs were met promptly and with a smile. However, they could have been more transparent about the pricing of additional services, like the expensive dinner we unexpectedly encountered.

Location

7.0

Riad Kalaa's location in the medina made it convenient for exploring the area and finding our way back easily. The proximity to the market added to the charm of the location. However, the elderly glazed window fixed with duct tape was a bit of a letdown in an otherwise excellent location.

Dining

8.0
