El Patio Courtyard House

Très bon rapport qualité prix, accueil parfait et très bon petit déjeuner

Great place, need to walk to it from main road. Yummy free breakfast, clean, safe, laundry, pleasant staff, close to zeytunia mosque and souk and walkable to downtown. A true tunis experience

The hosts were both very friendly and accommodating. The location is right in the middle of the old town, great if you like such atmosphere- with narrow pedestrian roads (no car access) and traditional amenities. The hotel only has 3 rooms, so it's a very, very quiet atmosphere Rooms are very traditional too. But I was surprised that most reviews I saw did not warn about the issues I point out here below; Despite the friendly staff, I personally won't go back due to these reasons; The room did not feel clean at all - and the carpet was very dirty and worn off. I even felt uncomfortable using my slippers, its best to walk with shoes in your room - which I don't like doing. The breakfast is not a buffet - its a set breakfast made by the friendly hostess, very basic, including eggs, some bread, and minor things with it. It is NOT a buffet, and with only 3 rooms in the whole hotel - it's a very dead and often awkward atmosphere when you're having breakfast with just 1 or 2 people from one of the other rooms, in the quiet lobby area. Also, you have to tell them what time you want to have your breakfast - which is not convenient to plan the night before. When you come back to the hotel, you have to ring the bell - for him to open the door for you. So again this is uncomfortable when you come back late and you have to wake him up to open the door for you. Also, it was very inconvenient to reach the hotel with my bags - most drivers will NOT know how to take the cars inside those narrow roads to reach the hotel, and roads are mostly closed in that area to get inside. So if you have larger bags - its a workout and quite a walk to get there. Its a very friendly staff - but all of the above makes me uncomfortable to use that hotel again.
