6/10
Yves Marrakech is ideal for short (1-2 day) stays: a clean, quaint, 4-room, Moroccan bed and breakfast riad (traditional Moroccan structure built around a central courtyard) with all of the necessary amenities (running water, air conditioning, comfortable bedding, Wi-Fi, TV etc) situated in the Medina / old town in Marrakech.
The team of Zakaria and Solaiman at the reception is kind and helpful and will do everything in their power to make your stay comfortable. I appreciated their professionalism, close attention to detail, and their around-the-clock support.
You should know that, like many other properties in the Medina, this property is not located on the main road - one has to negotiate the small alleyways for 5 minutes by foot although you will be met by a member of the reception team on arrival. Even though the neighbourhood seemed and felt secure, the location made me re-schedule some of the activities I had pre-booked that either had a very early start or a late finish simply because I was traveling solo.
I stayed in chambre no.4, which was spacious and appeared to me just as displayed on Expedia.com. However, there seemed to be a slight plumbing and ventilation issue in the room in terms of the smell of raw sewage that would waft into or settle in the room at times. It also felt like the air conditioning was inadequate for the space at times, so I also requested a fan for the room, which I was provided with promptly.
