First time in Morocco so it was scary the first night . Staying at a Riad is not like a hotel so do not have that thought. Staying here was like staying at someone’s African mini mansion . It was hidden down a corner . It was a safe environment. Was greeted by polite Kaleed who runs the home with a few women . He offers free breakfast every morning and a paid dinner if you like. The room had everything you needed in a Morocco way . If yo are very modern and not willing to embrace the culture then a Riad isn’t for you . If you are willing to embrace the the culture and explore by walking down a few blocks to get to the square then do it .if you are sporty or like mountains then hike up the atlas mountain for gorgeous view and probably the best pictures you’ll ever take . Excursion are cheap when using the USD. I’m a New Yorker so we are used to hustle and bustle and a lot of ppl trying to get you to buy things . If you aren’t used to this then it will be culture shock . The square has many shops and places to eat . If you want alcohol you will find a place that’s hidden or above street level in the square so you can have a cocktail otherwise no weed or alcohol . Don’t worry there are American restaurants if you are a picky eater . As far as the road you will be safe , feel safe . I stayed here for three nights before heading to Spain .
