Our stay at Riad Chbanate was absolutely amazing. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful and every suggestion they made for restaurants and other services were spot on. The riad was really peaceful, clean and comfortable, our room was nice, and the breakfast was great. Highly recommended, hopefully we'll get a chance to visit again.
