Good location in a quiet section of the medina, lovely house and friendly staff. However, wasn't too pleased that dinner cost 130dh when I checked out after it was offered to me. It's a bit of a steep price and would have been nice to know I had to pay for it beforehand!

Riad Idrissi
Very friendly owner in a beautiful riad with a nice terrace view. My single room was snug, but had a relatively large bathroom with plenty of hot water. A fan provided adequate cooling. The owner runs a Berber cooperative, but there was no pressure to buy. The riad is located on a quiet median lane. I would happily return.

As for a cheap price i didnt expect much. The room had heating as mentioned, what was important bcs it was pretty cold and rainy so we had to dry our clothes. On the other hand the blankets were very messy and dusty. As i am alergic to dust i had to take a few pills to survive the night. We also reserved room with view, and we got a room downstairs, dark, no windows, no views...?!. Hot shower was nice. Price=What u get. It was fine and nice for one night stay, but it could be a bit better Also i have to mention we were pretty tired in night but i couldnt get sleep as there was always somebody in living area of riad who was eighter talking loud, or kids were screaming and running around the house-even with ear plughs its a bit difficult to get sleep

Value for money, reasonable amenities, but the room stinks :-(
It's a budget hotel, within reasonable facilities. But you can't help but to notice the foul smell from toilet (due to faulty plumbing system) wafting over in your room as soon as you enter! There was no blanket, so do ask for one of its the winter time. I suffered through the night in cold, and there wasn't anyone in the reception. The breakfast, however was good! Overall, if you want to stay cheap without much complain, then it's OK.

Very so so.
Was not treated good. After coming to Morocco over three weeks ago, first time I felt descrinated. Owner/manager more receptive to May be (white) or Europeans. It was hard to get any help from him. Our room suppose to have a view ( there was no view). Our one window open to terrace. Room was just basic.

Absolutely the worst part of our trip.
When I booked this room, I was expecting a wonderful king size bed with pillow top mattress. It room was supposed to come with coffee maker, sofa and sitting area. When we questioned the manager or owner (not sure who this man was) he said we had just what we requested, which was a lie. He said it might be possible to change rooms the next day but not that night. The only way we could change rooms was to wait to see if any rooms would be vacant. Our room had the most uncomfortable full size bed with extremely old mattress that sunk down on one side leaving me laying in a hole. When I woke up the next day I could hardly walk. Again we complained and he just laughed it off saying that since we booked it online through this website he couldn't even discount the price of the 2 nights. He knew that we would still be charged. We decided not even to stay the 2nd night. This is my 5th trip to Morocco and this was the most horrible place I have stayed. We were able to find a wonder place that was 1/2 the price of this room. I wouldn't let my dog stay there. What ever you do, don't stay here. The hotel management lie and cheat people of their money. It is truly false advertising about everything.

So so experience
We were stuck in a room with no window , the description said we would have a balcony (they have no clue what the description says). There is some kind of plumbing issue especially at night the sewage smell is very bad so we asked for a room with a window the next day. They let us move but did not provide breakfast for us the next day. It said breakfast was available between 7-11 am, we left at 8 am, no one was even awake yet, I think it was supposed to be included in the price. Location & decor were good.

Quiet retreat in Meknes Medina
After the bustle of the medina, Riad Idrissi was a haven of peace. The home cooked supper was wonderful, as was the breakfast on the terrace each morning. It's a good location with all the sights of the old city within easy walking distance. Also, the night life of the new town is only a 5-minute taxi ride away. Recommended.

OK for the price.
This is not the best riad we have stayed in, but the cheapest. The room was fine. A bit small , but I don't mind that and it opened on to the terrace which was nice. The position was handy to the square and easy to get to and from. The staff weren't over friendly and the dinner was OK but overpriced at 150 d.

Some Goods, some Bads
As other guests have said, this is a house, not a hotel. There is a family living there underneath the hotel and children are running through the riad and you can hear their living room below the rooms. It is honestly more of a guesthouse than a Hotel. They charged me twice as much city tax as any other hotel in Morocco, and even other hotels in Meknes. They have an awesome terrace, however the highest terrace on the very top of the roof is reserved for the family which is quite disappointing, as if i pay to stay somewhere Its a bummer to not be allowed to enjoy the facilities. The dealbreaker for me was that they padlock the door at night. That is to say if you are not back you are locked out (and they rarely answer their phone). this is also to say that after 11pm on a Saturday on Eid if you want to enjoy the surroundings you cannot get out of the Riad, and if you can, you will not be able to get in. All in all it is not worth the money, though at a push you can stay at the Riad and enjoy your stay so long as you don't go in with super high hopes.

Dreadful
First and foremost, this is a home. The hotel part comes second. So you get very loud prolonged family arguments, screaming kids and the tv blaring out until late. As it's in the Medina, it's also very noisy outside into the early hours. Room promised a balcony or patio (but there was neither), a mountain view (impossible, as it's crammed into the medina), a king bed (no) and the room was tiny. The bathroom stank of drains. Breakfast consisted of a large chunk of bread and a pot of yoghurt. No one in the hotel speaks any English.
