Lonely Planet review

Despite being situated just off the bustling Riad Zitoun el-Qedim, Dar Limoun is as quiet as a church. It's also one of the tiniest riads (courtyard mansions) imaginable, but it is neat and clean with a pretty lemon-yellow patio.

There are only four rooms in this riad: three doubles and a triple. All are simply furnished with lemonwood beds, tribal rugs and little low chairs and tables that make you feel like Goldilocks in the house of the three bears. The internal patio is pleasantly decorated with potted plants and trailing vines, and in the evening you can climb the candlelit stairway to the roof terrace. The price doesn't include breakfast, although, with its great location it's barely a few minutes' walk to the juice stalls and cafes of the Djemaa el-Fna. It also has good connections with Hôtel Sherazade, where you can hook up with other travellers on treks and excursions.
