Exceptionnel
Superbe séjour dans cet établissement, une magnifique terrace où prendre le petit déjeuner, les hôtes sont hyper accueillants et disponibles et la localisation du Riad est parfaite (en plein cœur de la Medina)

Good
The place is very central, great breakfast, great rooftop sitting area.
I really think this place is overrated, I mean is good but is advertised as a Riad, but it's not, it looks more like a bed and breakfast. Very little privacy and other rooms and the workers can clearly listen to all your business and vice versa. The alley to reach the place smells like cat pee and is dark, there was always dodgy people smoking and drinking and didn't feel safe. Also you can't move freely between toilet and bedroom as there is just a curtain to close the place. the set up of the rooms is weird.

Awesome stay in the prime area of Essaouira
Really loved the location, the outdoor spaces (the top level had an incredible view of plenty of seating area), the breakfast, and the service. My favorite part of the day way having breakfast served on the outdoor terrace.
The room we had was a bit on the cozy side, but we also had our own balcony area.

Great experience
We stayed for 1 night. Property is really nice, an old house beautifully transformed by Simo and his brother. You can easily see how much work they put into it. The stayed was lovely. Bed is very comfortable. The best is the terrace with it’s view and the breakfast. These 2 combined makes the perfect combo. Simo was very helpful, giving us directions and advices of what to visit and where to eat. thank you and good luck!

Great for back packers—of which I am not
Very friendly staff and owners!
More like a guest house than a riad. Limited privacy when out of bedroom area. Many areas petitioned by curtains. Cleanliness was lacking for my tastes. I got a suite which it wasn’t.

A fascinating town with lovely people
I really appreciated staying in a 500 year old house in the centre of a fascinating old town. Despite the age of the house, everything worked. Bed was comfortable. The owners run the business. They are charming and were very helpful. I enjoyed the Moroccan breakfast with fresh orange juice, pastry, egg, bread, good coffee. Lots of real shops, not just tourist stuff. I liked the very active fishing port. I had some very good meals which were not expensive. Fish was delicious. Much enjoyed a scrub and a massage in a hammam
The main beach is beautiful but I was surprised that the seawater was cold…comparable with Cornwall.

A home stay is a better way to describe this riad although we had a private room and bathroom. Very clean, furnished with African flare, great breakfast and a rooftop terrace. Rooms cleaned daily, Simo our host was contactable via What's App for any queries. Location in a quiet area of the medina and walkable everywhere with a good choice of restaurants close by. Simo met us at the bus station which was a nice touch and provided us with a map which we found helpful until we had our bearings.
For senior travellers the stairs were a challenge but we managed.
