A historic 15th-century riad being lovingly restored by an American architect as her own home and art studio! You’ll have Dar Lara all to yourself — no other guests will be sharing the space. The riad features extremely fast Fiber Optic WiFi, a newly renovated bathroom, a very comfortable bed, and breakfast included! The king sized bed is located upstairs, while the library sitting room on the ground floor can be turned into a Twin XL sized bed for a third guest :) The Space At the center of the riad is a sunny courtyard, surrounded by elegant gold doors that lead to the main rooms. On the ground floor, you’ll find a newly updated bathroom, a library sitting room, a small kitchen, and the open-air courtyard—a perfect spot to relax. The bedroom is on the upper floor, featuring a king-size bed with a memory foam mattress topper and soft linen sheets for a restful night's sleep. Please note that the bedroom does \*NOT\* have an en-suite bathroom; the bathroom is located downstairs on the ground floor.
