    Charming hotel with great service in the heart of the medina

    Only thing I'd say is the terrace wasn't quite as magical looking as it is in the photos – looked to me like it's used mostly for laundry, not for sitting and enjoying. But nonetheless, it was a very lovely stay. Thank you so much! Would stay again.

    LOVED this stay. The young woman on reception whose name I unfortunately didn't catch was so friendly, so helpful. Big comfortable rooms. Delicious breakfast. Great location in the heart of the medina. Strongly recommend!

    Maybe it would have been nice to have some variety in the breakfast, in case you stay longer. But for 3 days it was ok for me.

    Very practic Riad in one of the main street of Essaouira. They gave me a bigger room, so I can't really write about the single room. I got a very good deal and I'm happy with the relationship quality-price; maybe the riad lack a bit of some atmosphere, it's more similar to a hotel; but I was aware of it.

    no one mentioned that we had breakfast included during check in. the room we got was very humid and there is no air conditioning. the fan in the bathroom is not functional as well.

    the staff were very kind and helpful. Breakfast was correct. the location is very central and the riad is beautiful. there is a terrace for use 24h which was very cool to use for breakfast during the day or even during the night for some cool air.

    There was 1 man there when we arrived that was rude. The issue was resolved. However just because you have a bad experience with previous guest does not mean you reflect that on future guest.

    The rooms were well organized and comfortable. The breakfast was delicious. The lady at the reception was absolutely amazing.

    The windows were open when I arrived, with flies inside my room.. I had to make sure Room wasn't exposed to insects or flies. The steps were steep to the top floor and required hard work to take luggage on my own to the Top floor.

    The location was easy to reach inside the Medina. Had no problems to find via GPS. The reception staff were helpful and courteous. Rhe breakfast on rooftop was nice, and everything was fresh.

    The construction work was just behind our windows, it was really noisy, streets have their typical odour. I would probably book something out of medina next time - to enjoy more peace and quiet...(let's see)

    The riad is located right in the medina what brigs its advantages and disadvantages. The acommodation is clean and staff very kind and helpfull. Rooms are spacious and beautiful. Whole Riad is very traditional, we enjoyed our stay

    The bathroom was very small and left no area dry after a shower. We also had to close the door to the bathroom at night because there was a strong smell coming out of the shower drain. Also recommend to bring earplugs as it was fairly noisy, but this was because our room was close to the terrace and we had a window open up to a noisy alley.

    Loved our stay! The riad is spacious and nicely decorated. The staff was super attentive and helped us if we had any questions. Great breakfast served on the terrace!

    No complains.

    A very small hotel in a old house is situated in the old town. I was in the very nice room on the 1st floor designed in traditional style, above the frequent bazaar street. It was very quiet and comfortable in the night. The staff was nice and very helpful. Breakfast was with sweet sortiment. Thanks for the great time!
