Riad Puchka

Rooms were simple but comfortable during our stay. Definitely book airport transfers from the riad as it is the most reliable way to get there as well as the cheapest (the taxi drivers will try to charge more). I have never had service that was so good, Zakaria and Ali go above and beyond to make you feel safe and at home from the moment they pick you up to the moment you leave. It is great that they show you around the area first so that you don't get lost. Breakfast was simple but so good, some days we had eggs, other days pancakes. Especially when you can eat and enjoy the gorgeous courtyard, it's such a great place to relax. What a hidden treasure.

We enjoyed this riad a lot! If you are looking for something glamorous, look elsewhere. Its very nice decorated and gives a truly authentic feel. We were picked up at the airport and shuffled around to get there, you are really in the heart of things with just a short walk to the Jemaa square. Welcomed with tea and taken to our rooftop room that had a great air conditioner. The Riad was a welcome break from the madness. we had a nice breakfast and often came back in the evenings just to laze around the pool and drink tea. Staff was helpful with any requests for help, with what English they had.

Riad Pucha: The Riad Pucha gave us a very traditional Moroccan feel in the heart of the Marrakech. Zack (Zacharia?), along with the rest of staff, was extremely helpful. The Riad was located in a bit of a maze within the Medina, which may not be best suited for less experienced/easily overwhelmed travelers. Zack was available to escort us from our taxi (which was not able to bring us all the way to the Riad), and he walked us to our tour pick-up location. Breakfast was included in the price and was simple yet satisfying. The room was very bare-bones (no tv), but had wifi in the lobby, decent enough air conditioning, and clean bathrooms. Just a warning about the location: When you are being shown how to walk from the main square to the Riad, pay close attention. When you go out on your own it is very easy to get lost even with a map, and while the locals seem to want to help, some will tell you to go the wrong way to get you more lost and then will ask you for money to help you find your way. We had multiple times when we were out walking to the main square when locals told us that we were going the wrong way and tried to point us in the opposite direction!

Could be nice place to stay but staff speaks only arabic and french, and were very uninterested in solving of problem situation (which is a very big disadvantage if the problem accures).
