COMFORT GENERAL Y ATENCION 100% TOP

When searching for accommodation in Chefchaouen i got distracted by a couple of reviews that were from my own country who praised this place I will review soon so I started looking into it. 

With 8.9 grade on the internet from over 640 reviews it sounded like a great deal especially since the price was very good. 

So I pressed the book button and that's how I ended up at Dar Antonio in Chefchaouen. 

Actually I ended up there after switching planes and driving a car for 5 hours from Fez but that's another story. 

I arrived at the place around 21:00(with a bit of help from a boy in the parking lot) and I truly think that without the help, after 19 hours of travel, I would have had some trouble finding it. 

During daytime it's easier but at night, being tired, it felt difficult at that time. 

What I can tell you from the start is that the host is great. A real good, helpful man that made my stay great with our talks or with little things I needed. 

Being inside the Blue City there is no parking available on the spot but you can leave your car in a paid/guarded parking lot just 100/150 meters away tops. 

From what I remember I paid about 4 eur/2 nights so the price is not really a problem. 

Outside, there's a small path that leads to the place and inside I smiled because it looked very small and pretty. 

I don't know exactly how many rooms Dar Antonio has but I guess no more than ten.
 
My room was situated at the top floor and as a word of caution, the stairs are very narrow so bringing a large suitcase could mean trouble or at least a very difficult time moving it up and down! 

The main advantage of having the upper room is that right outside there was a small terrace that I used on each night I spent there to relax and watch the stars. 

Since Chefchaouen is in the mountains and there are no huge buildings or strong pollution the stars are visible each night. Or at least when I visited I was able to see them on both occasions. 

The room was small but clean. The host showed me where the extra blankets were in case i got cold(which I did but I guess it was due to how tired I was not necessarily to cold weather). 

There is also a small kitchenette where you can prepare breakfast if you want or deposit some things to eat later. 

Regarding the bathroom I have mixed feelings. 

As a solo traveler I did not mind that it was a shared bathroom. From my room I had to go down two small flights of stairs to reach it. Since I don't wake up at night to go to the bathroom I was OK with the positioning and only used it to shower before going to explore the city. 

But if you know you're waking up at night and need to use the bathroom or you need to clean your hands or just don't enjoy walking outside your room to shower then this place is not for you.

I had no problems with it as a solo traveler but I totally understand people who do not enjoy shared bathrooms. This was in fact, from what I remember now, the first time I booked a room with a shared bathroom and while it was an OK experience I will still opt for private bathrooms on my trips.

Because I plan to keep my articles shorter I will end up this post by saying that Dar Antonio is really a great place to stay in while in Chefchaouen. 

The only disadvantage could be the bathroom but if you are travelling solo or just there for one or two days it is really not that big of an issue. 

As a bonus, because I forgot about it until now, the place has WiFi so you can easily share your pics with your loved ones when you reach your room.

Good stay

I am very dissappointed in how my stay ended at this Riad and to read the fear nongering comments towards the locals.  By end of my stay I realized Antonio/Hischam was following me when I was away from riad.  I was toks there was no musicians or live music, I was followed to cafe and warned I'd be locked out since I got along with Ganawa players and was hanging out with them.  My pain killers also went missing my last night when I let Antonio help me pack.  Its a beautiful property but I was discouraged from going out.  I was told to contact them if I got stuck or needed anything...after I left I was blocked on whatsapp when I was only asking for help with internet search.  Single ladies should avoid this riad.  Stay at Garden Molino instead.

Don't listen to the owners or these reviews about the locals

Wonderful location, hostel and host who was happy to help with anything help and was open to discuss. Very relaxed and peaceful stay, a place to recharge. Highlight of a very positive trip to Morocco. Very highly recommended.

Cool place 

Very well located... in the middle of the blue city... close to the great place... very comfy room with shared washroom... shower is in a cave. Antonio always there to great you! Slept like a bear had room on my floor. Terrace is amazing to meat people, relax and smoke...

Charming Dar Riad Antonio

If you are traveling alone, call Antonio in advance to let him know how you’ll arriving and he will glad you meet you and escort you to his hotel. Do not take the recommendations of strangers who want a tip for showing you the way. Dar Antonio’s place is a little confusing to get to- so having him meet you will save a lot of headache. Antonio gave me dinner and breakfast recommendations, which were local, fair priced, and delicious. The room had extra blankets for the cold and he provided a hair dryer. I would go back to Antonio’s place. He may also ask you to discuss over mint tea.

Accommodating host

Very good location - it is in the middle of the Main Street near to all the key photo sites (5 mins). It is also 4 mins to the Center square with a lot of restaurants and shops. Very convenient for one night stay in the town.

The boss, likes cool but in fact very friendly and helpful. He helped me to take the heavy lungage down hill when we cannot find a lungage boy.

One point to note - it’s hostel style with shared toilet and shared bathroom. You will need to bring your own towels and shower gel/shampoo. Consider the price it is acceptable.
