Local Professionals are Great but Disappointed in Kimkim

Ali and the other guys who work at Original Travels are very nice people. Our driver Nurudin was super nice and excellent at driving. Unfortunately they are not experts in luxury travel and do not know much about the type of travel we were looking for. I blame Kimim for this because they connected us with these professionals. It was not really their fault because they were just trying to do their best. None of the locals had actually been inside the palaces we wanted to see so how could they be 'specialists." We are highly disappointed in Kimkim as a service and do not recommend it.
Hotel Reviews
This is not a five star hotel. It is currently under renovation/construction and should be avoided at all costs. I would also not recommend this location for African or African American and non-Arab non-European presenting travelers.
This is a lovely hotel with amazing views and helpful courteous staff. The breakfast is also delicious and the rooms are nice. Things to be mindful of, this is a dry hotel, so there is no bar. There are a lot of stairs and so no appropriate for folks who cannot climb several flights of stairs.
Great room. It is out of the city but if you want a modern place with a lovely rooftop then this is a good choice. The pool area is lovely. The bar was closed due to Eid but is supposed to be great. Room was very clean and modern. This is a good choice if you need a break from staying inside the Medinas or Riads.
Excellent experience with great hosts. The camp was beautiful and had a pool (must have for the summer) the workers did a great job of arranging food, drinks and generally making us feel safe and entertained.
Nice place with friendly staff. Also has a good pool.
Nice hotel but it is a bit old. There is a damp smell in rooms.
Activity Reviews
Really good food. Guide was knowledgeable as well.
City was closed due to Eid. The guide was not very good and took us to several shops where we felt pressured to buy.
We had a nice drive with our driver. He is a good driver, very safe.
Great experience. Beautiful drive.
The guide was not necessary but the mosque is beautiful.
One of the better local guides we had. Did not push us to make purchases and knew a lot about the town and local history.
