Casa El Haouta

Breakfast was lovely, served on the roof terrace. I had to leave early the next day and the hotel packed me up a breakfast to take with me. Thank you!

The shower drain was blocked so it resulted in a very wet bathroom floor.

Friendly staff, clean and comfortable, great location, awesome breakfast!

Everything was great!

Great house

This was a good value for a riad in Chefchaouen. The staff member who was on duty most of the time was friendly and spoke pretty good English (he also spoke Arabic, Spanish and French from what could tell). The location was nice too, it in the medina and was close to the main square and most of the town's attractions, yet it was situated on a somewhat less traveled street so it was relatively quiet and peaceful. Their breakfast was good as well, somewhat basic but solid nonetheless. The Wi-Fi was decent as well The room was pretty nice overall. Again, this was basic accommodation so the beds and linens and fixtures were a bit old, but it was clean and comfortable. My room didn't have a view unfortunately, but all the other rooms (which I saw after people had checked out) looked like their had windows, so I guess it's luck of the draw.

The bathroom was old and dated. The shower had trouble maintaining a temperature, with wild temperature swings. You kind of had to time the swings and get out of the way before it got too cold or too hot, using that time to soap yourself. And as for the soap, I'd highly recommend you going to the nearby store to buy a bar. The free bars of soap they provided were nearly impossible to work up a lather and they felt like they had hard rocky pieces in them. Although the rooftop area was nice, the covered section of the roof was small. The roof is where they served breakfast, and the enclosed breakfast room was small, so in the event of rain it could feel quite crowded for breakfast. But in good weather or at non-peak breakfast times, that wouldn't be a problem.
