I had a wonderful stay at Riad Maialou. the ambiance was enchanting, especially the beautifully designed rooms and the rooftop Berber tent I stayed in. The service was incredibly warm and accommodating, with the staff eager to help at any moment. However, my experience was slightly marred by some noise late at night during dinner, which made it challenging to rest. Overall, I recommend this riad for a unique and immersive experience in Marrakech.
