rooftop terracecomfortable mattressquality beddingwardrobe light

i relaxed here with my husband for a week. i found the riad minutes from the medina walls. we booked a superior room with a roof top terrace. the bed included high quality bedding and a comfortable mattress. i used the shower twice daily thanks to the housekeeping.

i wanted more light in the room. it annoyed me i couldn't see clothes in the wardrobe. a few battery operated lights inside are great if electric ones are not.
