We were upgraded to a better room in the adjoining Riad Zenab which was beautiful. A small pool outside the room. Service was excellent. The two Nourias were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good but was only served in the Zenab fit the last two nights. The first two we had to go over to the main Katmela.

Nice petit Riad

Riad Petite Karmala if a very nice place to stay at. Well located in the old Medina. Rooms are nice as well as the staff. Khalid works in the food area is a great helpful guy. I lost my cel in Casablanca, but was found by someone. Khalid helped me to contact the hotel where my phone was left which I would have had a hard time to do by myself. They have professional staff that are all helpful and willing to help in many areas. My only complain is that the room was noisy at night with lots of knocking like a hammer, which made sleeping very difficult. I am not sure of the source of the noise, but when I shouted and knocked on my bed head the noise was reduced. The air condition also made strange noises. Overall it was one of the most professional places I had stayed at in Morocco. The food is great and priced well. Breakfast was rich and has a variety of choices. The staff was very accommodating.

Worst Nightmare

The Hotel is located in a dangerous neighborhood, staff informed the guests not to go out at night. The shower drain was loose and a rat was staring at me. There was no tv in the room and when I asked the front desk, She was quite nasty, during the breakfast buffet staff was watching us constantly to check how much food we were taking , this was very uncomfortable situation that I never experience in any hotel. When we checked in they DID NOT GIVE US A KEY, we could not even lock the room at night and We secured the door with some furniture before We went to sleep, I would not even rate this Hotel with one star. When We were checking out, the owner stated that F/D should not given this room bcos it was under renovation which explained everything. They are in discriminating behavior because We were 3 women from Morocco not a European or American seemed like were more welcome in this Hotel. Watch yourself and DON'T EVEN THINK TO BOOK.
