My stay at Riad Goloboy was generally enjoyable, thanks to the beautiful decor and friendly staff. however, there were some aspects that didn't quite meet my expectations. The location was central and allowed easy access to the main attractions, yet the alleyways leading to the riad felt a bit daunting at times. Overall, the experience was a mix of charm and minor disappointments.

The facilities included a pool and some lovely common areas, but I noticed the pool was not very inviting. I think adding more greenery and attention to upkeep would enhance the ambiance.

Staying at Riad Goloboy had its ups and downs. The ambiance is beautifully decorated, and the staff was genuinely friendly and warm (I loved their hospitality!), but the location required navigating narrow alleys that felt a bit unsafe at times. The room was comfortable but had some cleanliness issues and lacked adequate ventilation.

While the riad is situated in a vibrant old town, I was a bit cautious due to the long and narrow alleys leading to it; I wouldn't say it was the safest path, especially at night.

Each breakfast was delicious, featuring fresh fruit and an abundance of bread, though I would have liked some variety over my stay.

The amenities were decent but not all were as advertised. For instance, I was disappointed that my room didn't have the advertised bath, and I used the shared facilities more than expected.

My stay at Riad Goloboy was truly enjoyable, with the highlight being the staff's really good friendliness and attentiveness. The location, a bit of a trek from the lively square, offered a peaceful retreat wrapped in Moroccan charm. However, I experienced a few hiccups like the missing pool and cash-only payment, which could be improved.

Rooms

My room was beautifully designed and spacious, with lovely touches like rose petals on the bed. It led directly onto the staircase, which disrupted my privacy a bit during busy times though.

Although a 15-minute walk from the bustling Jemaa el-Fnaa square, the Riad's quiet surroundings offered a nice break from the busy city life. The late-night stroll back felt a tad daunting at times.

Breakfasts were good, featuring a rich selection of traditional Moroccan staples. However, I missed having more options, especially as the space isn't vegan-friendly.

While the Riad boasted beautiful interiors, I was disappointed by the absence of a pool as advertised. The hot tub was nice but needed cleaning improvements.

My stay at Riad Goloboy was quite the experience. The peaceful vibe and attentive staff made my stay truly enjoyable.

Getting to the riad was an adventure in itself. It's at the end of a narrow alley and not very car-accessible, which could be uncomfortable at night. But it’s about a 15-minute walk to the main square, so it's pretty central overall.
Dining
