You MUST see Sale' when visiting Rabat
Firstly, staying in Sale means you get a more "step back in time" feeling. You won't see many other tourists on the streets, the market is authentic because it's used by the locals and you don't get hassled and the medina is fabulous (walking around the medina walls facing Rabat was a highlight of our trip). We drove so you need to figure out parking in advance (most Medinas in Morocco are pedestrian majority so Google maps can be sketchy). If you use public transport it's a bit of a walk, but there's an easy tram across the river and quaint rowboat services which many locals use. The Riad itself is family run and really sweet and so are the staff; helpful and friendly. I have only happy memories of Sale and would definitely recommend this place. Plus Hassan Chicken a few blocks away has gorgeous herb-stuffed rotisserie chicken!

Great Riad but run without care.
The Riad was beautiful but lacked atmosphere. There was a lack of friendliness and understanding when I discussed the 28euro extra tax. The room was advertised as 37euro. Felt a little scammed! The care factor from the staff was quite low. But if you can overlook the coldness of the place, then it is worth the stay.

Traditional Hotel
Nice hotel in a quiet area of Sale. We enjoyed a five night stay all within walking distance of local attractions and amenities. Excellent accomodation in an en-suite room, very comfortable with friendly and helpful staff. Would recommend. We walked to the tram stop (10 minutes) to get into Rabat city very good value (60mdh) or walked down to the ferry across the river (2.5 mdh).

Very comfortable stay in Moroccan style
I was on a business trip and this hotel provided a very comfortable stay. The food was very tasty, the staff made you feel at home and something very important, the wi-fi worked very well throughout the hotel. If you want something different from the multinational expensive chains, this is highly recomended.

Cat p.. in my bed!!!!!!!!!!!!
FIrst of all is the hotel hard to find. You nearly have to live in town to know the way, and most of the locals I asked about the way didn't know where the hotel is anyway. Secondly they advertise the room as 161 squaremeters. Well the room itself is no more than 2x5 m and the "bathroom" 1x4 m. Judge yourself how close to 161 that will be....Thirdly, where was the kettle??? The staff and owner doesn't speak a word of English so French or Arabic is the only way to talk to them. Lastly, and worst of all: when I lifted the cover of the inner bed to go to sleep, there was a large brownish wet circle on the sheet. The stank was awful since the cat of the house had been PEEING IN THE BED!!! It had climbed into the room by means of the tall plants outside the window facing into the patio. Is this how guests should be treated????

Sehr nettes und hilfsbereites Personal. Allerdings ist der Zustand des Riads renovierungsbedürftig. Die Sauberkeit des Zimmers war eher enttäuschend. Natürlich ist ein Riad nicht mit einem 5-Sterne-Hotel zu vergleichen, aber zu dem Preis gibt es vergleichsweise bessere Riads.

traditionelles Riad in Sale
Die Schwesternstadt von Rabat ist auf der anderen Seite des Flusses. Achtung, nur weisse Taxis dürfen hin- und herfahren. Sale bietet nicht viel, ist dafür nicht so touristisch. Riad Marlinea: Die Matraze war sehr sehr weich, nicht jedermanns Sache. Das Frühstück ok, aber nichts Besonderes.

Chambre petite, salle de bain ridicule. La propriétaire essaye d'escroquer sur le montant de la taxe de séjour. Petit déjeuner frugal et servi au bout de 40 min alors qu'il n'y a pas grand chose à proposer. Pas de resto accessible à pied autour de l'hôtel. Seule la femme de ménage est agréable et avenante. Des gens fument dans l'hotel, juste sous les fenêtres des chambres

Hotel con encanto, ubicación complicada
Riad familiar muy bonita, cómoda y limpia. El desayuno está delicioso y el personal del hotel es un encanto, pero nos resultó muy complicado encontrar el sitio la primera noche (lo conseguimos con ayuda de un chaval del barrio, previo pago "voluntario"). Barrio no turístico, callejuelas estrechas por las que no podíamos entrar con coche y oscuro, la noche no invitaba mucho a salir.

Llovió mucho. Y en la habitación lavanda tuvimos goteras. Lo lógico es ofrecer un cambio de habitación sobre todo habiendo libres. No se hizo. Las zapatillas estaban muy mojadas y pedimos un calefactor o algo similar ya q vimos uno en una de las habitaciones vacías nos dijeron q no q utilizásemos el secador. La terraza deja q desear al igual q las vistas. El desayuno correcto. Limpieza bien, y trato correcto. El patio es bonito aunque si eres alérgico a los gatos no te aconsejo q vayas. Un poco caro en relación calidad precio para la zona q es.

QUI OSE GAGNE !
Familier du Maroc et du peuple marocain, après avoir séjourné en famille, à l'hôtel, en appartement, j'étais désireux et curieux de découvrir de façon plus approfondie l'hébergement marocain, chez l'habitant, ou presque ... Quel meilleur endroit que la Médina de Salé ? Mes connaissances marocaines ont été surprises lorsque je leur ai fait part de la situation de ce Ryad au bout de la Médina; Les recommandations de toutes sortes, tant sanitaires que sécuritaires ont été légion ... Bien entendu la réputation hospitalière des marocains n'étant plus à faire, même avec l'habitude, on découvre l'autre facette du petit peuple, le vrai, loin des grandes lumières des hôtels hauts de gamme familiers des grandes villes... Dès le 2 ème jour, dans le dédale des ruelles et venelles, on vous reconnait (c'est une évidence), les salutations s'échangent avec chaleur, vous vous fondez dans le paysage de ces gens si accueillants. Le Ryad est tenu comme une pension de famille, les conversations sont feutrées mais également chaleureuses. Le cadre respire la tranquillité et est apaisant. Cet endroit ne connait pas les nuisances sonores de la circulation automobile, on pourrait penser y effectuer une retraite spirituelle par exemple. Je déconseille cet endroit aux jetsetters, aux afficionados du "blingbling" ... En réalité, belle expérience que celle-ci, je ne pensais pas qu'elle puisse être aussi enrichissante ! 10 nuits sereines, un bonheur !

Magnifique Riad, placé dans la médina de Sale
Je suis ravie d'avoir choisi cet hébergement car il nous a fait découvrir la magnifique médina de Sale, qui est encore plus ancienne et magnifique que celle de Rabat à mon avis. Je vous avoue que nous avons eu besoin d'aide pour réussir à trouver notre hébergement parmi les minuscules ruelles, mais ça en valait le coups! Ce riad est magnifique et nous a fait vivre une expérience hors du commun.
