What a spectacular setting. The owner met us on our arrival after which we could not find him until it was time to pay. We could not find his wife at all. Only one (not over friendly) member of staff on duty and he was only available at breakfast and dinner. We had three dinners there, two of which were passable; however the breakfasts were a disgrace - stewed coffee and frozen bread. It seemed to us that the food was bought in, rather than being cooked on the premises. Having said that, our rooms were perfectly nice and clean with decent bathrooms. R.S. in February 2010
Great food and very friendly service. Very beautifully located overlooking the lake and away from the lights and bustle of Ouarzazate for greater stargazing and quiet. T.T. in December 2009
