Breakfast is served in a quiet and beautiful courtyard next to a fresh water fountain, accompanied by the gentle songs of birds to enhance your relaxation. We also make sure to provide complimentary Moroccan tea and coffee throughout your stay, so you can fully enjoy the true Moroccan hospitality. We warmly welcome anyone looking for a comfortable, clean, and sincere experience—far from the usual tourist style.
