I spent three days at Riyad El Cadi in Marrakesh, and while the hospitality was really good, the noise levels at times could be disruptive to sleep. The rooms are cozy and beautifully styled, but the layout could use some refinement. I truly enjoyed breakfast on the rooftop and the overall charm of the place, but I would recommend considering a room away from the courtyard for a quieter experience.
