+Place is a scam. Either closed or doesn't exist. They send fake automated messages when you book, to make it seem like they are open.

4.0+La suite réservée ne correspondait pas aux spécifications présentées sur le site. Le soit disant canapé convertible était un petit canapé non convertible ne permettant pas de faire dormir un enfant de 16 ans. Nous avons dû payer un supplément pour avoir un matelas sur le sol ! L hôte ne nous a pas rendu la monnaie sur la taxe de séjour !

10.0+We’ve been to Riad Scalia for two days, the staff was really polite and gentle mostly Nezhra! She was also really helpful in finding a guide and offering different traditional dining options. Our stay in there was really pleasant and hopefully we’ll come back soon!

6.0+The host was very welcoming and we felt very comfortable during our stay. The location is perfect, quiet and at the same time close to the Medina which is good to walk around and visit the old city of Fes. The room price was affordable 50 euro per night, whereas Expedia listed the price in Moroccan dirham. The Riad offers a home cooked tagine dinner for 20 euro per person (approximately 210 dirham) and is a nice treat if you want a quiet dinner in (restaurant tagines are around 90 dirham). We tried 2 rooms: the inside rooms are very quiet and dark at night, the other room with the balcony to the outside was louder but has a fantastic view of the hillsides. Bathrooms are decent, we had some issues with the shower but that was fixed after talking to the host. The place offers to wash clothes for 1 euro (10 dirham) a piece, hanged to be dried, not ironed, which means the clothes might take longer to dry e.g, more than 24 hours. My only recommendation, and to avoid any confusion or misunderstanding, is to use the country currency (dirham) for the room price and the other services. Not all visitors are from Europe, and converting between currencies and changing exchange rates may cause

10.0+Riad was beautiful. Breakfast is ok and the room was small but decently comfortable. Location is at the edge of Fes medina, could be hard to find or easy to get lost near there.
“Good location, comfortable beds”
+This is a nice, newly renovated raid near the wall of the medina, and not far from one of the gates, so it’s relatively easy to find. The room was pretty clean, and the beds were comfortable. Breakfast is good. We also ordered dinner there one night, and it was great. The biggest downside is the staircase, which is very steep and narrow. Also, the shower had mildew.

10.0+We loved staying at the Riad Scalia! The property was beautiful and easy to find, away from the hustle and bustle of the medina but an easy walk away. We had a lovely terrace in our room overlooking the countryside. Our hosts were extremely kind and friendly.
“Wonderful stay on the edge of the Medina”
+Riad Scalia is charming and comfortable home away from home located on the edge of the Fez Medina. Our room and the common areas were clean and beautifully decorated. In addition, the shower was water was hot and the WIFI worked well. Our hosts, Mohammed and Nezah, were two of the nicest people I have ever met in a place where I stayed as a guest. Nezha went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful, and she is warm and genuine individual. After a long day of walking all over the Medina, she invited to the rooftop terrace for a cup of fresh tea. And what an amazing view! The home-made breakfast every morning was delicious, and Nezah showed us how she cooked the chicken and vegetable couscous that we had for dinner. Staying at Riad Scalia made our short time in Fes very enjoyable, and we were genuinely glad that we had selected to stay there.
+Fes est un endroit à découvrir, hors du temps, authentique, le soleil était là et les marocains sont accueillants. Le propriétaire des lieux est resté distant lorsqu'il s'est rendu compte que nous nous sommes débrouillés par nous mêmes, les escursions qu'ils proposaient étaient deux fois plus chers. Lors de notre départ, il n'a pas daigné se lever pour nous dire au revoir. Quand à sa femme, elle était parfaite dans son rôle d'hôtesse. Le petit déjeuner était médiocre, même pas de vrai jus d'oranges alors que le pays regorge d'oranges. La terrasse du riad n'est pas très confortable pour se détendre. Une route en contre bas avec beaucoup de circulation et une caméra installée sur la terrasse alors ils pouvaient contrôler nos faits et gestes.
