Maryam Montague, the owner of this lovely, cheery boutique hotel works for a human rights NGO; runs her inn; writes and photographs; and sources rugs, textiles, accessories, and furniture from across Morocco, Central Asia, and Africa for a small clientele of high-profile fashion designers in New York and Europe. There’s a rotating selection of her finds available on her website, or you can stop by and see what she has in stock in person.
