Was a bit tricky to find especially with a car. The roads are super narrow in the Kasbah. Note there is no parking at the Road but a public secure parking a short 5 minute walk. 
Once we found it, it was easy to get around. Nice location. Close to the palace and tombs and souk. Rooms are adequately sized for two people. It’s dated but nicely finished. The whole Riad is very clean and well looked after. Rooftop has sitting place to chill. Didn’t see the public bath they advertise. Staff were so helpful from getting me to the parking spot, the ladies that make breakfast are super, Always fresh, plentiful and a variety that changed every day. Moha is very helpful and check in was quick and easy. He is great with information about the area and where to eat etc. There are restaurants and coffee shops open during Ramadan all in 5-10 mins walking distance. Would stay there again gladly.

Clean, comfortable, very friendly

While it calls itself Riad Dar Aida, the guest house is more a Dar (more bourgeois) property than a Riad (more lordly and ornate), technically speaking. Yet it's beauty lies precisely in its simplicity. You find yourself in a little oasis of peace within the Medina and close to the Saadian Tombs where you are not constantly bombarded with the aggressive solicitation typical of the properties close to Bab Doukalla. The room I booked was exactly the one I had selected (no bad surprises), nice breakfast and the staff most helpful. The rooftop patio is absolutely lovely with open and covered seating areas, should you want to catch some sun rays or read a book on a comfortable sofa in the shade. I could have stayed at Dar Aida for a full week as it compensate it up with troves my least pleasant memories of Marrakech.

Most pleasant experience in Marrakech

We stayed at the Dar Aida for 4 nights and had an excellent stay right from the start when we were met by Mohammed at the taxi despite our arrival being way past midnight! 
The riad is authentic and clean with all amenities for a comfortable stay. The owners and staff are friendly and helpful, even going the extra mile to prepare breakfast for us early before a day out and offering advice about the area and trips.
The breakfast is a typical Moroccan breakfast of bread and flatbread with jam and honey as well as coffee, tea, fresh orange juice and tasty homemade cake. A good start to a day of exploring. The riad is in the centre of the Médina which has many restaurants and small stalls selling food and drinks, we did not see any alcohol but we don’t drink so no problem for us. There is also a central mosque and a square where you can hire a horse drawn carriage for a tour of the city. We paid 400 dirhams (approx £32)for 3 people, around an hour. 
On arrival we was quite overwhelmed by the hustle and bustle of the Médina but quickly got our bearings and felt safe wandering around the narrow streets. Only downside is the many scooters and motor bikes winding through the streets, these cause a strong smell of fumes and can feel quite close at times! However, as soon as you enter the riad you are struck by the quiet, calm atmosphere With very little noise discernible. The riad thankfully has free WiFi, roaming charges very high, no TVs which was a refreshing change.
It is possible to book an evening meal with a little notice, we really enjoyed the tasty homemade food. Tagine of vegetables or meat and vegetable, couscous with veg or meat and veg for 70 dirhams each, highly recommended. (around £6)
The airport is a quick 10 minute drive from the Médina and although we booked a transfer due to our late arrival, taxis are cheap and easy to find.
We had a thoughoroughly enjoyable stay, the owner even escorted us to our taxi at 6:45 am to make sure we got away safely!
Great experience and hope to go back again, thank you Dar Riad!

Lovely stay

We stayed here for a total of 3 days.I loved the ambience of this Riad. It is located near everything. Market;JmaaElFnaa is walkable.If you have been to Marrakech,you know it's a bustling place but when you step in the Riad--you feel calm and relaxed.It's like you're transformed to a differnet area--so peaceful and quiet once you're there.
The room we had was okay-the washroom was so tiny though.Just had to close the washroom door when there is hardly any space to maneuver. 
Margo,the owner is very friendly and welcoming. Although,not liking the fact the smoking is allowed. She treated us like family. I would want to go back if given the chance.

quaint riad

Ten minutes walk from the Jemaa el-Fnaa there is this riad full of peace. Marga, the owner, gives you a personal and warm welcome. Decorated with taste, its comfortable rooms give you the chance to rest from a busy day. It also has a nice terrace to sit, chat and rest. Another thing to remember is the assorted breakfast you are given to start the day.
