Appalling customer service from Hotels4U.com and Residence Intouriste. Very sad as I lived in Morocco (and for a short while in the Residence Intouriste). The hotel had been a favourite of mine, hence the resaon we choose it as a base whilst we visited family in Agadir. The hotel is now dirty, run down, is no longer cleaned or looked after. The rooms were over run with ants and we all suffered ants bites. We had to change rooms no less than 3 times. The hotel lost electricity 8 times whilst we were there, meaning we were unable to use the cooking facilities. The pans and utensils were so filthy we had to purchase new items from the market and borrow from our family. The restaurant served only burnt, cold food, by rude and insulting staff. All the towels provided were stained and were ripped with holes as big as 10cm in diameter. The reception short changed us every time we needed to change currency. When we pointed this out, they always had the excuse that they did not have enough change, and that we had to come back later to pick up our missing change! Each time we returnded to collect the money that belonged to us, they denied all knowlegde. The hotel suspended the shuttle bus service meaning we were stranded (it is a good 30 mins walk into the town centre, and through the building site notorious for muggings). The small taxis in Morocco only take a maximum of 3 people at any one time, which was a nightmare for us (2 adults, 2 small toddlers). When I called to complain to the Hotels4U.com rep, he answered only on the 4th time of calling over 3 days. The rep, a local, told me that he could only help if i wanted to book an excursion! They are willing to take your money, but not make sure your family are ok. . There is a lot more that they failed on but too much to mention in this review. Very sad and very disappointing. I worked in Morocco in the travel industry and have never experienced this before. Neither company cared about my family and the money we had spent to visit our family. We have video and photo evidence of all. Do not book this hotel. It is too far out when the shuttle bus is no longer available, and is in desperate need of renovation and repair. Do not book through Hotels4U.com for accomodation in Morocco, there is no one available when you need them. They just want your money.
