First hostess did not speak any English. There were absolutely no room cleaning done during our 4 night stay. Wifi and data only worked in very specific parts of the room. Floors dusty and lighting dim. For the price point was left disappointed. The other host and hostess were at least very helpful.

Authentic Medina experience. Located in a quiet area, hotel and rooms are spacious and historical. Service was excellent. Breakfast every morning was a highlight. If you're looking for something a little out of the ordinary, I would recommend.

We stayed in the Sophie room for 4 nights. It was incredibly small. We had to take turns opening our suitcases since there was no where to do it. There was no storage- no closet, no drawers, no shelves. There was no trash can, no soap, and only one towel. We did request and receive another towel and a used bar of soap. There was no where to hang the wet towels. Between the open shower and leaking sink the bathroom floor was always wet. The bathroom was DARK and the window was broken. The breakfast was barely adequate. I am allergic to eggs and that was the best thing on offer so I was out of luck. Instant coffee made in the microwave. The staff was lovely, the bed was comfortable and it was quiet at night. We made the best of it. I would not go back and I would not recommend. We paid $80 per night, maybe one person paying $30 per night would feel better about it. We did see into some of the other rooms and they looked much better.

Customer service is definitely the number one reason why I'm giving this property 5 stars out of 5, overall. I don't care that the only way to access this place is by foot, or that getting lost finding one's way to it is guaranteed, or that it may not be for folks other than adventurous solo travelers or couples with no children, or those with nostrils that can stomach the smell of sewer or cat poo. I will go back to this place again and again as long as the same staff who welcomed me on my first visit to the beautiful country of Tunisia are still there.

The location is very hard to find especially with luggages, there is no indication anywhere and the GPS doesn’t recognize where it is once in the Medina. The woman at the reception is a liar and tries to rip you off. The decor is nice but they also changed the room I had picked to another one and pretended I booked only for 1 person when I booked for 2.

Lovely stay in the Medina
We stayed for one night in this delightfully Tunisian B&B. Myriam is a lovely host giving tips on where to visit (in Tunis and onwards through Tunisia) as well as offering to arrange taxis, and even giving her phone number to call any time for assistance if needed. The Tunisian breakfast was fantastic! It was a little hard to locate in the Medina; we managed with the help of locals but would suggest taking Myriam's offer to help book a taxi who knows the place.

Una casa caratteristica, arredata in stile arabo, molto accogliente e silenziosa e anche molto pulita. I ragazzi davvero gentili e disponibili, la mattina ci veniva servita una buona colazione nel cortile dove era situata la nostra grande camera. La struttura è situata proprio nel cuore della medina, vicino alla moschea principale, un piacevolissimo soggiorno immerso completamente in un'atmosfera tunisina tra botteghe e caffetterie tipiche arabe

Diciamo che non è che non mi è piaciuto però in quattro giorni che siamo stati non c’è mai venuto a pulire nessuno la stanza e il bagno Per quanto riguarda la colazione è un disastro non erano ben coordinati si scordavano di portarti il minimo indispensabile Se c’era il latte non c’erano le tazzine se c’era il pane non c’era il latte Le posate mancavano e dovevi sempre chiederlo quindi la colazione per farla ci voleva parecchio però basta Che migliorano in queste cose che ho menzionato in compenso la struttura carina accogliente

A fuir! Ne reflète en rien la réalité! Malhonnête!
Nous devions reste 3 jours nous avons seulement passés une nuit! Mensonge et Mauvaise fois de la patronne! - à notre arrivés à Tunis appel de la patronne, chambre non disponible nous avons dû trouver un hébergement en urgence car un problème était survenue on ne pouvait pas nous loger. On nous a demandé de ne pas annuler auprès d hôtels.com, nous sommes arrangeant et avons accepté de dormir les trois dernières nuits de notre séjour à la place des trois premières sauf que: malheur!! - impossible de se doucher, leau remontait de la douche et fuyait dans toute la chambre. - les sanitaires et pièce d’eau le ménage laisse fortement à désirer -odeur des moisie dans la chambre due aux remontées. -nous avons demandes des serviettes car les nôtres ont servie a éponger, le veilleurs de nuit riait, ne savait pas quoi faire avec la fuite et nous a dit qu’il fallait attendre le lendemain pour avoir des serviettes propres. -téléviseur cassé -propreté de la chambre laissant complètement à désirer . Le lendemain matin nous avons décidé de partir et voulions faire une réclamation auprès d hôtel.com, la encore on nous propose de s’arranger à l’amiable, que nous allions recevoir un virement pour le remboursement des nuits non occupées, mensonges! Après 3 relances cela fait plusieurs mois que l’on est balades nous n’avons jamais été remboursé! Les photos ne reflètent pas la réalité du tout!

This hotel was way different from its online pictures. It’s actually very small and old, our room was very ruined, no soap and they didn’t even give us a key, saying that “another guest has taken it” and that we had to wait for it to come or we could have changed our room. When we said we wanted to change the room, they hesitated and told us to wait for the key. The key never arrived and as I read online, this is a common issue. They simply don’t have the key and don’t want to call a blacksmith for a new one, or maybe the lock doesn’t work. The breakfast was not good at all. NOT WORTH THE MONEY.

Not safe, room cannot be locked
I do not understand the positive reviews for this place. Yes, it is an authentic medina house, but as a hotel it is quite inconvenient. The walls are so thin that you can hear people snore in other rooms, for example. But the big problem is that we were given a room without a key - so it was impossible to lock. The owners spun a tale of how the previous guests had left with it - but this was clearly a lie since the door was not even equipped with a lock, and looking at reviews on other sites we are not the first to be told this story... We asked if we could be transferred to a room with a functioning lock but apparently not. It does not help that the hotel itself is completely unlocked and the reception was unstaffed every time we got there, so it would have been easy to just walk in. The WiFi was also only working for some minutes at a time, and only in specific corners of the room. Other than that they were helpful - but in the "I take you to my cousin's shop" kind of way, where we felt the advice was not genuine. The location in the Medina is cozy but also inconvenient - the area is not super safe after dark, and it's difficult to coordinate pickup with tour guides etc. Overall a good option if you want a place that is an experience in itself, but if you want your hotel to be a nice & safe hub for your trip I would not recommend it.
