I had a great experience at Riad Louaya. The location is ideal, only a 10-minute walk to the main square, making it easy to explore the markets and local restaurants. The rooms, especially the Amber room I stayed in, provided a beautiful Moroccan feel and were quite spacious. However, it was a bit cold during my stay; the breakfast area was chilly and lacked gluten-free options, which was a bit disappointing.
