We stayed in 3 suites, 2 of which were interconnecting rooms. The rooms were very spacious. It each has a separate corner for sofa. Tea/coffee making facilities are available in the room. There is also a safe locker and a spacious wardrobe.
The bathroom is clean and spacious. The toiletries are generously provided everyday. The towels are provided in the afternoon as well, after the room has been cleaned in the morning.
The rooms are cleaned daily. On one occasion, the superiors of the cleaner even came to make a spot check if everything was well cleaned. We dont have any complaints in that matter.

The breakfast buffet was not so varied as compared to 4 star hotels. But nonetheless it was okay. Croissants, toasts, fried eggs, sausages, oatmeal porridge, salads and fresh fruits were available everyday.
The hotel provides complimentary transfers to and from the airport, with prior arrangements. However, a fee of 50 dirham is payable for the transportation of luggages upon departure. Depending on the number of persons and the quantity of luggage, it might be wiser to hire a taxi.
