Accommodation in Marrakech
Morocco is a great budget travel destination if you have just come from Europe. The hotels at the cheap end of the scale tend to be old places with ecclectic flair. I have found that the best places to stay are either in the Ville Nouvelle (the "new" town areas that were built by the French) or on the edge of the Medina's. The cheapest budget hotels are often in the Medina's, but I found it is not worth the hassle of carting your bags in those areas and trying to find your way around the narrow streets.
In Marrakech I split my time between the new and old areas. In the old area I found a hotel on a main street near the Medina, the Hotel de Foucauld. This room was 220 Dirham ($25 US).
Hotel de Foucauld
It is your typical budget hotel with lots of beautiful tile work throughout the hotel, and unusual room layouts.
Hotel de Foucauld Bedroom
My room had an ensuite bathroom that is so high up you could call it a mezzanine bathroom.
