This tranquil place offers traditional splendour at a great price. A couple of the simple, charmingly furnished rooms share a bathroom, and there's a six-bed dorm as well as a larger family room. The helpful owners also run Dar El Yasmine on the same lane. A sign on Talaa Seghira's south side points to the turn north, toward a fountain.
