Riad la Source du Desert

Great stay, we were received on the main street by Youssef that showed us the way to the Riad. Alone, maybe it would have been hard to find, but once you know, it is ok and very well located. From the beautiful decorated terrace with a small pool you have view to a very relaxing garden on your left.
The rooms and the riad look recently renewed, very well decorated and comfortable, small and calm. Super friendly staff.
We had breakfast (included in the booking price), which was tasty and fresh. On the night we arrived we ask for dinner since we were arriving late. It was a selection of salads/entries and a Tagine. Although quite tasty, we considered it a bit overpriced.
We had complementary bottled water on the room. Highly recomended.

This was our first time in a Riad and also Morocco. We chose the Riad as we prefer the smaller more intimate 'hotels' when taking trips.
The Riad is run by a local man called Youssef who will do anything he can to help you enjoy your stay. The rest of the team consists of 2 local ladies who keep the place spotlessly clean and tidy and prepare the breakfasts.
The location of the Riad on arrival is down a couple of typical Moroccan streets and initially is very hard to find, especially if you arrive at night. Advice here is to ask your taxi driver (from the airport) to call the Riad in advance of arrival and ask Youssef to meet you which he is very happy to do.
The Riads bedrooms are well kitted out with, TV, safe, air-conditioning and very good shower facilities (shampoo, body soaps & hairdryer all in the room). Towels are replaced daily if you leave them on the bathroom floor and the room and bed is also cleaned and made daily. On the roof (where our room was located) you'll find a very intimate and quiet area for eating should you wish along with a dip pool with sunbeds and parasols (no need to reserve! ).
On the minus side, and I'm being a tad picky, should you book the Standard King-size room (the one on the roof) you will need to make sure you personally tie back the awning outside the room or you'll find it impossible to sleep as the breeze/wind blows it around making awful noises!

Stayed here as a family of 4, booked 2 seperate rooms. The Riad is beautiful well decorated and maintained with an open communal area that is shared and lively rooftop pool and area, Riad is quite difficult to find for the first time but easy thereafter. The hosts are nice and welcoming and you can enter and exit whenever you want as you are provided with a key. Each room has a lockable safe and is cleaned daily. Coffee and water is chargeable which is not a problem but was not mentioned. The one drawback is the breakfast some bookings it's included but some you have to pay in the region of £20/€23 although the food os well presented it is never worth this price so I would recommend going elsewhere. Youssef is kind and helping but be careful with prices quoted as taxis are cheaper on an app called InDrive. Overall would be happy to return here.
