I had a wonderful four-night stay at Riad Chorfa, which served as a peaceful oasis amidst the lively chaos of Marrakesh. The location was perfect for exploring the Medina, just a short walk from the main square. However, while the staff was incredibly helpful and attentive, the breakfast options could use some improvement, as they were quite basic and not very varied.

I stayed in a spacious room with a comfortable large bed and a large shower. The water pressure was great, but I did have some noise from the kitchen below. The unique mezzanine bathroom setup can also be a bit tricky at night.
