Some rooms come equipped with heating, ensuring comfort during cooler seasons. The Moroccan decor, such as wooden grilles, adds a charming and authentic touch to the ambiance. However, not all experiences are flawless, as some guests encounter noise issues, especially in rooms near the reception area, and cramped spaces in the triple rooms.
