I had a decent stay at Riad Penelope Marrakech, but there were a few bumps along the way. The location is super convenient, right in the heart of Medina, making it easy to explore the area. Ismail, the hotel manager, was very helpful and welcoming, which I appreciated. However, there were some issues with noise and service that detracted from the experience overall.

I had a mixed experience during my stay at Riad Penelope Marrakech. The location was great, just a short walk from the main road, and I enjoyed the lovely rooftop terrace. but there were some significant downsides. The WiFi was nearly non-existent, which was quite inconvenient, and access to my room felt somewhat dangerous due to the layout. Overall, it had its charm, but I'd hoped for better amenities.
