Ask the front desk for anything they are super helpful. Located in the heart of a busy Medina, this backpackers style hotel offers a level of social fun that you won't get outside the old city.

You will not find another property this social and cheap. The rooms are clean, the breakfast is awesome and the drinks are cheap at the bar. The kitchen is pretty decent as well! Awesome staff, super helpful, super fun. NOT a place for children.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
Staff was lovely and very kind and friendly. Helpful tips: If you are a female with a physical disability or any mobility issues, staying here will not be the best choice. The property does not have an elevator and women only dorms are only in the 2nd floor. Additionally, taxis can’t not come directly to the hostel - the streets are too narrow inside the Medina. You will have to walk 8-10 minutes to a taxi pick up. Last point, I missed my flight to no fault of my own. If this happens to you, do not call the hostel. Email them. They will count you as a no show and will not refund that day of stay.

I had a wonderful and safe stay at The Central House. The riad had a cool, modern vibe with a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The staff were attentive, and the amenities were on point, making it a great place to relax after exploring. While I loved most of my experience, I think the evening ambiance could be improved with a better selection of music or a more skilled DJ. Overall, though, it's a fantastic spot to stay, and I’d recommend it for anyone looking for a blend of comfort and style!

The property was very clean. I was able to check in online to submit my passport information. I was picked up at the airport and taken as far as cars would go. There a hotel staff person with a wheelbarrow took my luggage the remaining 5 min walk on foot to the hotel, since it is down long windy roads in the old medina area of town. Check in was easy, and I was able to rent a towel and buy a lock for the locker, and get a free hot mint tea. They carried my luggage up stairs to the room. The room was a share women's hostel room with double bunk beds. Each bed had a curtain. The AC and hot water worked and soaps and shampoos were provided. There were some menu items served (food and drinks) downstairs. Many travelers hung around the pool, TV (watching soccer), and other tables in the common area, as well as up on the roof. When the sun goes down you can hear the call to prayer pretty loud, but if the windows are closed it won't wake you at the 3 am one. If you stand on your tip toes on a lounge chair on the roof, you can see over the wall for the sunset, but otherwise you can't see the city over the wall. This location is good for walking to get to the main square in 15 min or so, and is close for many restaurants. Google maps works so you can find the hotel. There is an espresso stand right outside the entry to the hostel starting at 9 am, and he has some good pastry/cookies. Front desk was always staffed.
