The biggest hassle you will have in Morocco is the occasional taxi driver who will attempt to get you to agree to pay too much.
Dress sensibly. They see tourists all he time, and are generally very welcoming.

So any recommendations where to stay in Marrakech, I'm looking at the Sofitel Imperial Palace, but am open to suggestions (from backpackers to 5-star)
I stayed at
Riad Mur Akush located a 10 minute walk from Jmaa El Fna Square, and had a wonderful stay, incredible hospitality, and decent prices.

A real gem, can heartily recommend it.
