Negative:
1. Very poor maintenance.
2. Insects crawling out from the bathroom drain hole.
3. The bedsheet & towels are not washed properly. (I have uploaded the picture when I checked in).
4. If you get a balcony room then the sliding doors doesn’t lock. Also you will not be able to sleep until 3am. Because you have a night market.
5. No shower gel or shampoo or soap provided.

Positive:
1. Very prime location, just by the Jemma El Fnaa square.
2. Lots of restaurants to choose from.
3. Staff are okay.

The location is amazing! Just downstairs outside you have the following: convenience store, plenty of food stalls, money exchange, clothes shop, electronics stall, sim shop, shoe shops along main strip from balcony view.

The vibes in this city are amazing and you’ll always find things to do especially if you head to the strip with all the fruit drink stalls.

Reasonable, basic but very very noisy

Very low price so is worth the money, you get what you pay for. I don't have any specific gripes other than the air con didn't work, the TV didn't have any channels, WiFi not very good and our room was facing the street so was kept awake by the very loud market until 3am. The bed linen was also heavily stained and there was hair all over the bed. The room has clearly not been cleaned for some time

I had to wait nearly 1hr30 after checking in for 1 towel (that was more suited to the size of a child) - which I had to get myself. The fittings inside the shower were mouldy and one of the shower cubicle doors were missing so when I used the shower, despite trying my best, the entire bathroom floor got wet. The window in the bedroom was like one found in a prison cell - very small and high up meaning that you can't look out of it. I checked out and went elsewhere after my first night as I struggled. I think the price I paid was ridiculous for the service, cleanliness and quality of my short stay - the only positive is that this hotel is near to Jemaa El-fna.

Really terrible

The good: the hotel is less than 20 minutes walking from most of the main Marrakesh attractions. Good wi fi. The bad: everything else. Receptionists on late shift only spoke arabic and french. On the way to my room I was handed a toilet roll and a towel. I asked for and got a second one. Both well worn out. Rooms are “basic”: there is a double bed with just enough space to move around. No chair, desk or wardrobe. In a corner there is a rail with a couple of coat hangers and some shelves. My room had a narrow window set high up against the ceiling, opening onto a small court where from the noise I believe there was a boiler. Couldn’t see the sky, only the wall. After running the water a strong smell of sewage filled the bathroom, the extractor fan didn’t work and also the steam stayed in. I asked to change room and was moved to one with a large balcony window. Again the fan did not work but I could at least ventilate by opening the bedroom window. This opens on the busiest street leading to the main square, full of shops, and some shopkeepers start hawking their goods by shouting, banging and clapping their hands each night at 11:30 (23:30) and carry on until 2:00 am - yes, 2 in the morning! By the the time sleeping is possible it’s 2:30 am. Then at 6:45 comes the call of the muezzin from the loudspeakers of the nearby mosque and gradually the street noise raises again. Avoid unless you’re desperate and if you go make sure to bring towels, toiletries, deodoriser and ear plugs.

There are better options for similarly priced hotels in the area so I would not recommend a stay here.

Moroccan Date Night--NOT happening lol

It's not bad for the price, like $12 USD. But if you meet a female who is Moroccan their laws do not permit her to come to your room unless you have a marriage certificate or she is not a Moroccan. Morocco is very liberal but some people take this issue seriously. I meet a beautiful female who wanted to spend time with me and the guy was like NO, YOU NEED CERTIFICATE of marriage!!! In USA this is unheard of, but I respected their laws. But it DID ruin my nite lol. The TVs are outdated, no hot water in rooms.

Centrally locates, but uncomfortably loud outside

It’s a great location for the price, but don’t expect too much. No toiletries or towels are provided in this hotel. Bathroom light is not working in my room. Door bangs against one of the beds. Sheets smell like they weren’t rinsed out properly (sheets were actually hanging from the railing inside the hotel, I guess they do their laundry in house). The manager was very helpful though and the ladies doing housekeeping were quite friendly.

Doesn't deserve 3 stars.

I'm pretty sure that the mattress in my room had fleas. It was solid, too, as was the pillow. The wiring suspending the light fixture was clearly broken, and held together with a bobby pin. The socket by the sink was hanging out of the wall, the bar in the wardrobe was hanging down one end, so impossible to hang anything (no hangers, anyway). There was never any soap or toilet tissue in the bathroom. The TV had only one channel, but it was NBC movies so to be honest, I didn't really mind that.
Plus side: the hotel is literally right next to everything - seconds from an atm, food, shops and about 1 minute from the souk. It is noisy until about 2am, but that's just Marrakech. The bathroom while not pretty, was very clean. The roof terasse was a nice bonus, and drinks inexpensive. My room was very very cheap, and I think I got what I paid for more or less. But it has a three star rating and Definitely doesn't deserve that.

In need of remodeling

All females use the same one bath room for shower and toilet. Same as for the males with the bathroom for them on opposite side. I had to constantly ask for toilet paper and I almost slipped while taking my shower which is highly dangerous because it has only slipper tile on the floor. Now I know to wear flip flops in the shower if ever experienced again. You have to take shower quickly because the water get cold fast. The are is so small, not make for a plus size period.

I stayed one night at this hotel because I had a flight leaving Marrakesh the next morning. The hotel was a little difficult to find, but with help from some of the locals (for a small fee), I eventually found it.
I chose the hotel for the low price. I was not expecting much, so I don't think it was a terrible experience. It was fine for one night. The room was small but comfortable. There was a water fixture that was broken and not in use. There were also some cracks and signs of damage that looked old.
There was no bathroom or shower in the room, but there was a shared the facility across the hall.
I probably wouldn't choose this place again unless it was an only option. It wasn't terrible, but I would want to be more comfortable next time.

Stay somewhere else

If you can spend a little more do it and stay somewhere else! The location of the hotel is really good if you want to stay in the middle of the Medina with plenty of restaurants around.

The hotel however is not that good. The room was really dirty with hairs all over the beds and a very dirty toilet. There was a soap dispenser that didn’t work and we didn’t get any towels.

The rooms were not soundproofed at all and you can hear what’s going on in the streets and exactly everything going on in the other rooms. Our neighbors were upp all night singing and laughing making it impossible for us to sleep.
The beds were firm but comfy and quite large.
The room was also very cold and we didn’t get any heating.

Hotel Ichbilia in Marrakesch als Budget Hotel

Das Hotel Ichbilia liegt direkt am Platz Jafna El Fna. Die Lage ist perfekt, der Platz, die Bazare die Massagesalons (seriös) und viele Restaurants sind innerhalb von 5 Minuten zu Fuss zu erreichen. Eine lange Treppe führt in den ersten Stock des Hotels wo die Rezeption ist. Es gibt Zimmer ohne Bad, diese haben ein kleines Lavabo, andere Zimmer mit separatem Bad oder Dusche. Das Bett war sauber, aber recht alte Wolldecken wurden benützt. Es war Winter und in der Nacht bis 2 Grad kalt. Eine Heizung gibt es nicht (wohl für den Sommer auch keine Klimaanlage). Eine wunderbare Dachterasse mit Bar (Kaffee, The etc.) und herrlicher Aussicht (Sonnenuntergang) ist im dritten Stock. Es gibt keinen Lift. Ich habe die gemeinsame Dusche nicht benutzt, es schien aber als sei warmes Wasser vorhanden gewesen. Ich selber habe mich in einem SPA und Hammam verwöhnen lassen. Rundherum gibt es viele dieser Spa ab 10 Euro bis hin zu einer Stunde Massage ab 20-25 Euros alles inklusive. Das Hotel geht zum Schlafen aber sonst würde ich eher eine andere Unterkunft vorziehen.
