Souk Cherifia

Kan ikke anbefales, vi havde en overnatning som var mere end rigeligt. Dette var der mange grunde til. 1. Der var slet ikke plads på selve riad, så vi blev rykket langt ned af gaden til et anneks, vi bliver informeret om vi kan møde op på selve riadet, hvis vi ville have morgenmad og prøve at bade i deres indendørspool. 2. Da vi møder op for at bade, føler vi os slet ikke velkommen, vi føler os mest til besvær, vi kan knap nok få lov at klæde om til badetøj, og vi skal skynde os, da der snart kommer andre gæster 3. Morgenmad dårlig og kedelig, man kan betale ekstra, hvis man vil have et glas vand eller et helt glas juice 4. Sengen havde sengelus 5. Intet varmt vand i badet ved de første bade. 6. De tager ekstra penge til "citytax" det skulle have koster 46, men de tager 50, det er ikke meget dyrere men dog ekstra penge 7. Ikke en særlig velkommen stemning ved selve riaden, grundet specifikt personale var man ikke velkommen 8. Efter udcheck kunne vi opbevare vores bagage i selve riad, hvilket var dejligt, det fik dog bare lov at stå fremme i gangen, da vi henter det kan vi se at noget af det var blevet trådt på og spænde til tasken var ødelagt 9. Det larmede utrolig meget, da vi skulle sove, der var meget høj samtale fra receptionen i annekset og musik indtil ca. Kl. 3 om natten.

BEWARE OF FRAUD AND UNPROFESSIONALISM BY THE STAFF. Ahead of our arrival, I was contacted by a staff member who asked me to buy him alcohol. This felt highly unprofessional and made me feel very uncomfortable. I contacted the riad ahead of time and asked them to arrange for a taxi drive to the riad. We were driven to the riad and paid the full cost 220 DH to the driver upon arrival. The staff member at the riad witnessed this payment as he spoke to the taxi driver and also was helping us with our bags. Upon checkout, the same guy at the reception demanded we pay double local tax and again for the taxi. He claimed the taxi driver took the full payment as a tip and that it was our fault for paying the driver, (despite having witnessed this at the time he said nothing) and then demanded that we paid again. For reference, a tip of 220DH is something you would notice and ask about. The normal cost of a taxi fare is 15-50DH. None of them had said anything about us paying the riad and not the driver beforehand. Once again, he even WITNESSED the payment. If this were a proper establishment they would have settled this with this with the driver and not us. That is, if it weren’t a thought out, two-part, scam. We were forced to pay again or we would have missed our flight, we also felt unsafe in the situation. The room was right by the lounge and pool. People stayed there until long in the night and early in the morning. It disturbed our sleep and experience further.
