DARK. Our room was dark with only a small window to the exterior and poor interior lighting. The bathroom was also dark with poor lighting. The alleyway leading to the Riad has no lighting, we arrived at night and the alley was pitch black. We used the lights on our phones to help us find our way. The breakfast area was pretty and the breakfast was lovely. The staff was friendly, but could be pushy. I also did not like the spa services.

Ryad Alya was beyond beautiful. Our check in was handled by Houssen and I can’t say enough about how wonderful he was. He helped get our train tickets for the following day. He made sure we were happy and content with our beautiful upgraded room. He should be given every opportunity to advance in this profession. Houssen could teach a class on customer service!!

This property was a refreshing breeze. The service and amenities were immaculate. The breakfast was delicious and was within walking distance of the Fes medina and taxis if you wanted to venture out across the city.

I can't say enough of how great was our stay in Ryad Alya. From Ahlam at the front desk and the rest of the staff, they make our stay very special. There is nothing they wouldn't do to make sure you have everything you need and/or want. if this is your first stay at an old medina, getting to your Riad might feel a little intimidated and maybe insecure, but once once they open the door is like entering another world, It is gorgeous inside and very comfortable and once you know the people you'll know that you don't have to worry. Especially for first timers, I suggest to go out with a tour guide, coordinated with the riad, they will take you every where you want to go and "translate" for you. I highly recommend Riad Alya.

Exceptional experience.
Our experience at this Riad was exceptional. The interior decore was like no other place covered in all 3D plaster and wooden engraved doors, high ceiling, fountain and trees. Our hats to the chef as thr food was the best we have tried in Morocco. The people were very friendly and helpful.
