Great house in an ideal location
This was a great VRBO. The house is very comfortable and is literally in the middle of things in the Fez medina, but only a short walk out to the taxi stand or the main gate. Quiet at night and the rooftop deck is a cool and comfortable place to spend the evenings. Support and response from Si Mohamed and from Suzanna were exceptional. We were picked up from the train station and relayed to the house, where Si Mohamed showed us how things worked and where everything was, and arranged for breakfast each day. There was plenty of room for our family of five and the house is very well equipped and wonderfully furnished. This was one of our family's best experiences in renting a house.

Mitten im marokkanischen Leben
Wir hatten eine tolle Woche mitten in der Medina! Einziges Manko: wegen des Ramadan haben wir kein Frühstück bekommen und mussten unser Essen selbst organisieren. Die Menschen waren alle sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Gerne wieder!

Wunderbar mitten in der Altstadt
Wunderbarer Aufenthalt, wunderbares Haus mitten in der Altstadt, Absprachen mit Suzanna , wie Abholung etc. wurden 100% eingehalten und der Hausmanager Si Mohammend war sehr zuvorkommend und hilfsbereit... Das Abendessen im Haus war ein Traum. Das Vierte Schlafzimmer ist nicht oben im Haus zum Patio, sondern etwas abgelegen neben der Hauseingangtür

Great location in the Medina!
Thanks a lot to Suzanna and her staff at Dar Malika - we (family with 3 kids) had a really good week in Fès! Everything was organized very well: the pick-up at the airport that we had asked for worked smoothly, we were very well received by the house manager Mohammed, and the dinner we had booked in the house already for the first evening was just marvelous! The house itself is really nice, spacious and comfortable, our personal highlight being the rooftop terrace, where we relaxed in the afternoons. Another highlight was of course the wonderful breakfast, prepared by Mohammed every morning, and the dinners we booked in the house at three occasions! Suzanna was very helpful and responsive at all times, thanks a lot! We can only recommend Dar Malika for a stay in Fès.
