Residence Babylone Y

We booked through AirBnB at the end of February for about 50 euro a night. Check-in and key handover were handled by a professional hosting service, and the apartment was pleasant. The security staff were friendly, the gardens were well kept, and there was free parking on the street and under the building. The pool is fairly large but only about a meter deep, and it was still a bit chilly. On our first day, our block's elevator was out, so we had to climb to the fifth floor or use the elevator in the next block and walk across the rooftop. Thankfully it was fixed the following day. Menara Mall is right beside the building, just a few minutes away on foot. It has restaurants, a supermarket, shops, and even a full arcade with an indoor ice skating track upstairs. Prices were very high, around two to five times what you'd pay for the same goods in Europe. During Ramadan, the supermarket, shops, and arcade don't open until 8.00 PM. The apartment was very quiet both day and night, with very little noise from the nearby airport. It's a 20-minute walk to the main city center square along safe streets. There's an ATM in the bank to the right of the driveway up to the apartment block. It charges 33 Dirham per withdrawal if you use a foreign card.

The terrace looked out over the pool and lovely mature trees, and the apartment was spotless and peaceful. It felt enormous, with tasteful renovations and everything we needed. Super fast fibre internet is now included. The concierge was charming, and Amina and Badr on the management team were quick to respond and helpful. Carrefour in Menara Mall was a short walk for food and wine, with good restaurants nearby too. It was a perfect way to finish our Morocco tour.

Such a lovely place to stay in marrakesh. It's very clean, in the best area, and has a perfect pool. Menara Mall is a two-minute walk away, and the people are really kind 🤎
