Location is a gem 20mins walk to medina square and all the amazing places we see on instagram like 1112 tea house and Kabana rooftop just to mention. All at riad were wonderful with exceptional customer focus and service. Their breakfasts are amazing and so too their dinner that we had on last night all locally sourced and made in the kitchen 😋. If you thinking of staying in a riad that go other place other than Kniza."
