Underwhelming
Honestly it was a bit underwhelming. I booked this stay due to missing my flight so I didn't really look too much into it but if I had to stay longer than the 1 night I did, I'd look elsewhere. Started off with the manager/owner unable to even locate my booking (understandable as I'd only booked an hour ago), but insinuated I wouldn't be staying there tonight, even though I showed him the booking confirmation on my end multiple times. Eventually found it and gave me the spare room on the bottom floor. Room itself has no AC, just a single very bright bulb hanging from the ceiling, and is right next to the office which plays music until 10PM. It was okay to get through just the 1 night I needed, but the breakfast was extremely underwhelming for 3 EUR... When I asked for an omelette my reject was declined, to which I requested a boiled egg, and was told there is no eggs in breakfast, just 0.30 cent bread and a few different spreads. Overall experience was just a bit below average in my opinion, there is significant room for improvement.

This was the worst experience the hotel had no fan or AC in the hotel in the 40 degree heat. Also charge you high prices for transport so be aware and use transport else where and not from the people from this hotel

We paid 20 Euro to be taken to the hotel, I suggest you do the same or you won't find it. We had to wait for half an hour before we were picked up. On our arrival the reception by Jawad was fantastic, the staff were also great. But and this is a big but, the hotel is extremely basic. It is situated in the middle of Medina which is a plus. There was no AC in 32 plus temperature it had a fan which was very loud. If you are planning to stay more than a night I suggest choose somewhere outside of the Medina and make sure it meets your basic needs.

The hotel states that there is 24 hour front desk service but the hotel did not open when I arrived at midnight because of the night bus. The gate was locked. No one responsed to the door bell and no one answered the phone calls. All I could do is to standing on the street for over a hour to wait and at last I still could not check in. I had to find another hotel immediately and it was a nightmare.

The riad is lovely and the hosts are very friendly and helpful, the breakfast is absolutely delicious! Very well located in Medina, easy to get to anywhere. We had a minor misunderstanding with the room when we arrived, as we had booked one type of room and were given a different kind, but it was sorted quickly. All in all, a positive experience.

Incredibly disappointing!
Arrived at noon and we were asked to wait 5 minutes and have tea. All three staff members doasaleared for over an hour! We called through the building, knocked on the door, tried calling the hotel and got nothing. Eventually I went searching through the building to find them watching tv. The woman told me that apparently her co-worker (not one of the other 3 people on site) who does the check ins never showed up and I would have to wait. She gave us no indication of this before! She didn't tell us anything about the situation- just left us in the lobby. We were incredibly frustrated! We were in the process of booking another room when they finally let us in- and out of sheer exhaustion from our travel and desperation to get out of the room we took the room. Big mistake. The room was mouldy, musty and damp, one towel was putrid, the other smelled less bad but was covered in stains. The hot water didn't work for a shower in the evening. The room was so cold that we we woke up to dig through our bag for extra layers at night. I put a filter on my Expedia search looking for places with breakfast included, and yet after waiting an hour in the morning we were told that breakfast was not included. This place stinks! They didn't even have a map to give us of the city! So when we finally got out of the riad, we had no idea where to go. None of the staff tried to help us at any point, they hardly even spoke to us. Don't be fooled by the pretty patio, this place is not worth your time
