We stayed at the hotel as part of a sightseeing tour of the south of Morocco, on the first and last day. The hotel was in conjunction with the tour, it was impossible to choose. I wouldn't have gone on my own! The rooms are ordinary, standard, quite large, without frills. There are no complaints about the number. The safe is paid (26 dirhams per day - this is about 2.5 euros). There is no dryer on the balcony. But we are experienced tourists, we always carry a rope and clothespins with us! ))) Clean well, in any case, what was noticed in such a short time. Our cleaning lady was very friendly and helpful, smiling all the time and chatting willingly.
The worst thing is that there is no hair dryer! Nowhere! Even in wretched 2* hotels all over the world, you can ask for a hair dryer at the reception, but not in Anezi Tower! I have long hair, I turned to the reception, they sent me down the corridor, saying: there is a hair-drying service there. Direction to the pool. Well, I guess there are hair dryers shared in the locker room by the pool. Aha! It wasn't there! It turned out to be a barbershop. Those. you can dry your hair in Anezi only for money! Who cares - take a hair dryer with you from home!
It takes about 10 minutes to stomp to the sea. It seems that you look from the balcony - it's not so far away. But in fact, the beach assigned to the Anezi Tower Hotel is located on the side, exactly opposite the Beach Albatros Hotel, by the way, it can be seen from the Anezi balcony. At the reception you need to ask for a ticket for the beach. They won't let you go without it. Coupons are given every day, they are valid for one day. Beach towels are provided by the pool, no deposit required. Be prepared for the fact that you will have to return to the hotel uphill, along rather steep steps. Who has problems with the musculoskeletal system, you should think carefully whether you will overcome such loads?!!

The only joy in the hotel is the food. The food is varied and very tasty! It is understandable, the chef used to work at Sofitel Marrakech. I can imagine what it cost to lure him away from Sofitel to some kind of Anezi! Either financially motivated, or personal circumstances!
I can’t say about the animation, I didn’t have time to delve into the topic. But visiting singers sing in the bar, different every day. The repertoire is pop, it seems to be nothing. Bartenders and waiters strive to cheat, keep your eyes open.
Drafts in the hotel walk. You can't sit in the lobby! Wi-Fi is free in the lobby, the signal does not reach the room. The speed in the lobby and bars is decent, and you can check your mail and chat on Skype.
There is a currency exchange at the reception, only it is closed all the time. I could not issue an electronic card for the safe, due to a system failure. They don’t change the currency - a failure in the system, you can’t issue a safe - a failure in the system! There are no hair dryers - also a failure in the system? Even Professor Preobrazhensky said that devastation does not begin in the closets, but in the heads!
The porters were also unpleasantly surprised. They grab your things, tearing them out of your hands! If you timidly try to object, they hiss in your face! Toothless, shabby! In stale clothes. B. . . r. . . r. . . r. . .
There are Russians in the hotel. I looked at them with compassion. The difference in price between the more decent hotels, on the first line and Anezi, is about 40-70 € per week. If the price of the issue is so acute, do not blame me later. The impression of the country as a whole depends very much on the hotel! That's it, after people check into strange hotels, then reviews about Morocco appear: they say the country is poor, wretched, not for a beach holiday! Meanwhile, the country is beautiful. With a rich history and original culture, diverse nature, unique cuisine, with beautiful beaches, a bewitching ocean and luxurious hotels in which you will be blown off dust particles and carried on your hands! Of course, for other money! )))
