Fodor's Expert Review Auberge des Peupliers
Aït Ouffi, Boumalne de Dades, Drâa-Tafilalet, Morocco
An ideal base for anyone craving simple Amazigh hospitality, Auberge des Peupliers has cozy accommodations with distinctive clay sinks, electric heating, and en suite showers; newer rooms include traditional features (like carved motifs) and face out across the gorge, but there's not much else nearby. The owners can organize guided hikes in the Dadès Gorge for guests. Rates include dinner at the on-site restaurant, which has an open fire in winter.
PROS
- basic rooms at a value price
- friendly, helpful service
- offers good, local food
CONS
- older rooms look shabby
- can be cold especially in winter
