Appalling service
We arrived for our stay and there was no person available to accept us. We went back in the morning to check in and question why there had been no person to check us in and we were turned away and told they were not accepting guests! Cost more money for our party of 5 persons. A great inconvenience

A great location!
We have stayed here during 2 visits to El Jadida, Morocco. Both have been great stays. It's centrally located within 150 metres of the old city. Many good reataurants in the area and close to the market area. Clean and quiet with a wonderful moroccan breakfast, including freshly squeezed orange juice. The only problem that we had was with the water in the room. There was no hot water but was remedied by using another shower. I'm sure it will be fixed shortly. I highly recommend this site.

This Riad gives you an idea of what life would be like behind many of the walls you see in the city. The staff were excellent, super friendly and although we did not speak any of their languages the natural goodwill overcame any problems. No tv but excellent wifi and the rooms and communal areas were comfortable and clean. Adjacent to the market area there was alyways something to do or see. Excellent choice.

Very good stay, very happy especially with Mina and Moustapha who were professional and adorable. Only issue is noise at night but they can't do anything about it, as it's near the medina, which is crowded... especially on weekend. Otherwise excellent stay, recommended.

Disliked: Staff & service
Our caretakers spoke neither French nor English, altho they were very sweet. Owner lives in Switzerland and was not easy to reach. I had to keep trying to contact him without internet and it was very frustrating. In fact, we were unable to connect to the wifi during the stay. Other reviewers have mentioned "Chantal", who was apparently not around when we were there, and probably would have made a big difference. However, the riad is charming and comfortable, in a good location in an interesting town.

Lovely Place
Riad Le Mazagao is located just outside the Portuguese City and just around the corner from the market. The host, Chantal provided detailed instructions on how to get there. The riad was beautifully decorated. I particularly like the paintings in the room. Chantal showed me a binder upon arrival and explained to me the attractions and dining options in El Jadida. All in all, the riad is a great choice in El Jadida.

Great location, friendly host/owner, lovely decor
An authentic Moroccan house, with many original features dating back to 1835, according to the owner/host. Wonderful first night in Morocco. The location is ideal for those wanting to see El Jadida's main sight -- the Portuguese fortress, including cistern. I'd highly recommend this charming riad.

Lovely Riad in a convenient location.
My stay was most enjoyable, and Chantal was extremely helpful with explaining about the riad, providing a great list of restaurants and things to see and do, and also arranging transportation for me for an early flight out of Casablanca. Highly recommended, and the riad itself shows the work and loving care that she has made it. Thanks very much Chantal!

Very enjoyable stay :)
I stayed in the Marrakech room of Riad Le Mazagao for 3 nights. This riad is well furnished and is in excellent condition. The toilet is not en suite but only next door, not sharing with anyone else. Shower is good. The room is spacious and clean, with a nice firm double bed. The location is very central and close to everywhere. The keeper is friendly and extremely helpful. I would recommend this riad to anyone traveling to El Jadida.

Great location if you want to stay in the heart of el jadida, close to the souks, restaurants and the beach. Not for the one who seaks a calm and quiet location. Chantal who runs the place really made us feel at home and was helpful at all times!

Felt more like a home than a hotel. The rooms were more than adequately equipped. I loved the rooms that were decorated in typical Moroccan style. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Did not have much difficulty finding it because I just asked around.

This riad has an ideal location right across the Portuguese City and the Cistern. Chantal, the french lady who owns it is wonderful, and immediately makes her guests comfortable. She is always available to offer guidance, and genuinely cares about the authenticity of the Moroccan experience.

Home away from home
I'm from the UK and stayed here for four nights with my Belgian friend. It's such a beautiful, stylish hotel/house! The photos don't do it justice. The owner Chantal was interesting, warm, welcoming and went out of her way to help us. The rooms are really spacious; so much attention to detail is shown throughout her lovely home! With just three rooms, the place retains a unique, cosy atmosphere, yet the terrace is perfect for meeting others from all over the world and just relaxing. Can't recommend it enough.

Great location, comfortable home away from home.
Great place to spend a couple of relaxing days in El Jadida. Rooms were clean, comfortable and beautifully decorated in traditional theme/decor. Giant serving of delicious couscous for dinner, fresh juice and excellent coffee at breakfast time and friendly recommendations for local activities. Couldn't have been better!

Welcoming...
Chantal is so welcoming and helpful. The room was spacious, well decorated. The location is perfect; just in front of the Cité Portugaise. It can be noisy at night since you're right in the middle of the action, but that is to be expected everywhere in Morocco, unless you go outside the city. Just bring ear plugs and you'll be fine. I would recommend this Riad.

Location is amazing right at the entrance to the Portuguese city and the souks. Rooms are clean and large and the breakfast was great. A warm welcome was provided upon arrival. Google maps and the website have the incorrect location as of our stay making it difficult to find the actual location.
