I had a lovely five-night stay at Riad Le Minasdam. The hospitality of Tarik and Brahim was really good, making me feel welcomed throughout my visit. However, I did find a couple of issues, such as the air conditioning being weak and the room lighting not bright enough. Overall, I would rate my experience as quite positive. 😊

My recent stay at Riad Le Minasdam was quite mixed. While I appreciated the beauty and quietness of the riad, the dark color scheme of the room made it less inviting. The location is conveniently close to Jemaa el Fnaa, but the pathways to find the place felt a bit unsafe at night. Overall, it had its charms, but some aspects left me wanting more. 🌙✨

My stay at Riad Le Minasdam was a good experience with warm hospitality that made me feel right at home. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the bustling market square, yet my room was quiet and restful. However, I did find the bed a bit low to the ground, which was challenging due to my leg discomfort. Overall, it was a charming stay, and I highly recommend it!
