This hostel is cheap so do not expect too much from it. This is the best price and this is a reason why. Not very clean at all. Good location.

Surprisingly, they did not receive our reservation at the time, obliging us to pay a full price which was not very normal ....

Hello,
Everything is perfect and in particular the reception of an extremely friendly staff. On the other hand, the state of the kitchen leaves something to be desired! It's greasy and I don't see how the staff could clean it better because it's ancient! Pan

The room I had was in the basement so dark and had ventilation problems in the bathroom. So it is better to ask for an above ground room. Otherwise everything was perfect and the staff very welcoming and efficient.

Good Inn, clean and pleasant, only reservation: it lacks soul.
It's more of a hotel than a hostel, bedroom suites in long corridors.
The dining room is cold, but the sofa room is still warmer.

The +: Great location because close to the old Medina. The staff are lovely.
The -: If you enjoy living at night and sleeping during the day then Riad VERUS is for you. Nightclub atmosphere with bad taste music. Impossible to do

I had no wifi. The sheets and the room in general smelled bad, like a hospital. And the bathroom left to be desired because the shower had no support, that is, you showered on the floor and soaked the whole bathroom.
I would not return.

Excellent location. Reasonably clean (although, not sure how wise it is, from a hygiene point of view, to have the shower IN the toilet cubicle :/ ). One regrettable aspect of the hostel was a particular member of staff who seemed to be thoroughly stoned
