My stay at Riad Marchica had its ups and downs. The location was great, just a short stroll from the Medina and Bahia Palace, but finding the Riad at night was a challenge. My room was quite small and lacked some essential amenities upon arrival. Breakfast was disappointing compared to what I had anticipated based on reviews. Overall, it was a mixed experience, with friendly staff and a nice rooftop terrace.

I had a great stay at Riad Marchica, with fantastic staff and a lovely atmosphere, but I was a bit let down by the breakfast and the difficulty in finding the place initially. The hospitality from Hannah and the team made me feel welcomed the entire time, but the breakfast options were not as impressive as I had hoped. Overall, I enjoyed my time, but there are a few areas that could improve.
