Aircon is really good like walking into a fridge when you get back, only issue we had is they don’t take card payment and never have any change when trying to buy drinks and food at the hotel. Wouldn’t order cocktails, advertised as alcoholic but we tried a couple and just tasted like lemonade

The man who checked me in was very nice but it all declined after that! Room was ok came with a bath which i was so looking foward too however the water was luke warm and the water pressure meant you needed to wait a hour to fill the tub by this time the water is cold! The dark hair lady receptionist is nothing but rude! I asked where i could get my hair cut she responded we dont do that here i then enquired about a massage and she then laughed at me and said we dont do them here. Bit different to what your website says! So just assuming she is new i pulled it up on the website to which she looks at me like im stupid and says did you not listen we dont do them.

The things which I don’t like when I went there people cleaning the rooms they was knocking on the door in a very hard away all the time and they wasn’t doing very well with the cleaning, linen was not in a good quality porters, they wasn’t okay to help with the luggage for a check in and check out we pay Money for the transfer, no one come to pick up us from airport in the middle of the night and when we asked for early pick up they told us we cannot do that and after three calls they agree and the driver was 35 minutes late!!!!! For a breakfast room they haven’t got water given to the people and all the time they was short with things if I have to account displays as a four-star hotel I can give you one star((((((((((

This is a terrible hotel and Expedia should be ashamed to have it as part of their organization. The concierge is the only positive about this hotel. Otherwise, it is disgusting. The breakfast included antique croissants, which could act as rocks as part of an avalanche. I am pretty sure some dictators of various countries are more friendly than the receptionists. I believe the snake charmers of Medina need to come and play a tune for the receptionists to perhaps cheer them up or an investment into customer service training. The cleaners are nice but are really attempting to either polish a turd or roll it in glitter. NEVER NEVER NEVER book during a new year as they will do you for £100+ per person for a “Gala Dinner” that involves the breakfast staff adding a bow tie to their morning blazers and serving poor food. The majority of guests left part way through the meal, as it cuisine began to replicate a scene from Indiana Jones. Back to the concierge, a good man who booked us two good trips, which allowed us to stay away from Hotel Chems for at least a few hours - god bless you!

Dirtiest hotel I’ve ever stayed at. I’ve stayed in plenty of 9 to 30 dollar a night Riad’s and cheap hotels all over Morocco and this place was absolutely the worst. Horrible staff, rude and unhelpful. Bed literally had ants crawling on it. The room smelled of raw sewage so bad when we would turn the room fan unit on. The staff refused to move us. So we checked out after our first night of 5 and went to a different hotel. I couldn’t believe the service and dirty conditions of this hotel. Every trip I’ve ever taken to Morocco I’ve always been impressed with the kind people and beautiful facilities. This place should be a last resort, if you can go somewhere else do it!!!!!!!

We loved how close the hotel was to the main square, however some of the staff were incredibly blunt and unhelpful at times. We asked to have breakfast arranged for an early start (4:45am), having paid for this, we were looking forward to water and fruit at the least, and yet the reception told us to speak to the restaurant staff, who told us this was impossible. A shame really. Booking tickets was also a little difficult and required two people to speak to the front desk separately to get a response!

The hotel is in hard to reach area with stairs and winding roads. It’s more like a B&B. The host couple was gracious, the staff was friendly and the breakfast was fine. We were disappointed when we reached there as the view did not look like the picture posted on the website.
