I had a wonderful stay at Riad Makila! It's just minutes away from the lively Jamaa El Fnaa, which was perfect. The only slight downside was the bathroom's lack of privacy due to holes in the wood decor. However, this did not detract from my overall experience. I found the staff to be incredibly sweet and attentive, making my stay even more enjoyable. 🌟🌼
