My stay at Hotel & Spa Dar Sara was a good experience, with beautiful decor and a serene atmosphere throughout the riad. The staff treated me like family, going above and beyond to ensure my comfort. However, I had some noise issues in my room that detracted from my overall experience, as I was quite close to the common area.

I appreciated the beautiful decor and comfy bedding in my room. However, being on the ground floor meant that I could hear conversations and footsteps from the hall, which was a bit distracting.

The hospitality was really good; I was warmly welcomed with mint tea and pastries upon arrival. The breakfast staff were lovely and attentive, making the mornings pleasant. Still, some staff members seemed a bit less engaging during the evening shift, which was a contrast to the otherwise warm service I received.

The riad features a lovely rooftop area, perfect for relaxation, and the spa services I enjoyed were a treat. The plunge pool was a nice touch, but I did have to walk quite a distance to reach the medina, which could be a minor inconvenience for some.
