We absolutely loved our stay at this hostel. the facilities were fantastic - clean and modern toilets and showers, comfortable bunk beds, and lockers for our belongings. the shared living room area was a great place to relax and socialize, and we even made friends with the pet parrots and tortoises! the staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, always ready to help and even inviting us to have tea and meals with them. the location in the Kasbah area felt safe and was convenient for exploring the city. the hostel had a great vibe and everyone staying there was happy. the price was incredibly affordable, especially considering the delicious breakfast included.
We felt like family during our stay and had absolutely no complaints.

The hostel had a funky decor, with turtles roaming around and kittens living next to the front door. The staff were helpful and provided lots of excursion recommendations. The hostel was also conveniently located near grocery stores, traditional shops, and the Jemaa El Fna square. The room was clean, had an electric socket next to each bed, and the wifi was good and stable. I highly recommend this hostel for its great value for money experience.

Best aspects of my stay were the friendly and helpful staff, who went above and beyond to make sure I had a comfortable experience. The clean and functional bathrooms were also a major plus. In terms of location, the hostel was conveniently located, making it easy for me to explore the city. I enjoyed the vibrant atmosphere with fellow guests in the common areas, where we bonded over conversations and music.
The lack of privacy in the dorms, as there were no dressing areas near the showers. The streets leading to the hostel could feel a bit intimidating, especially at late hours, due to the presence of drug dealers who were persistent in their offers.

The location of the hostel is great, as it is right near the communal areas and the city wall. It is also in the new part of the city, which allows for easy exploration. the rooms are clean and the staff is friendly, offering cheap tours and providing helpful information about the city. Breakfast is included and there are facilities for laundry, printing, and storage.
The dorm rooms can be cramped, especially the one for 14 people, with uncomfortable beds and limited storage space for bags.

Great value for money, clean and comfortable room, and very nice staff. The location near the old medina was also a plus.
Morning meal could have been better if there were more variety.

Kasbah Red Castel exceeded my expectations in every way. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel incredibly welcome. the female dorm with its own shower was clean and comfortable, and the hot water and good water pressure were a pleasant surprise. the location was perfect, just a short and easy walk from Jamaa el-fna, and the surrounding neighborhood had great food options. the hostel also offered a delicious group dinner that I highly recommend trying.
I can confidently say that this is the best hostel I have ever stayed in. Cons: Nothing at all!

I had a great time during my stay at Kasbah Red Castel. The staff was incredibly friendly and always willing to help. There were plenty of communal spaces to hang out with other travelers, creating a friendly and social atmosphere. The Kasbah district offered an authentic experience, and the breakfast was more than I expected with a variety of options. Dinner was amazing and the conversations were memorable.
Can't recommend highly enough this hotel.
