local knowledgewonderful additionsmooth arrival
The staff was helpful, especially Younes and the team. They SHOWED guests around and shared local knowledge. The cats living there are a wonderful addition. I certainly recommend the airport transfer. It makes arrival very smooth.
The location required walking through some slightly dubious streets, a minor concern at first.
