Accommodation in the heart of the medina. Good value for money. Pleasant staff.

The constant noise of seagulls on the roof, day and night. Difficult to have good nights.
The bed was good and the staff friendly. The room would actually be okay, BUT

The nightclub next door plays live music on the rooftop until late at night, then a techno DJ takes over for the rest of the night. Sorry, we hardly slept a wink both nights. And the often praised rooftop terraces? Uncomfortable root chairs on the lower one, somewhat neglected on the middle one - we didn't want to sit there. And the upper one (with the sea view)? Dilapidated and completely closed. And the curtain in the room only covers half the window. This house seems to have seen better days.
The staff, attentive at all times and with a family atmosphere, the breakfast, very good, varied and plentiful. And the location, close to everything but at the same time in a quiet place. We asked to leave the luggage before and after check-in, until the time of our transport

There were comments that it could be noisy at night, but not at all. You can hear something from the nearby places but very tolerable and for a short time. Nothing annoying
Excellent location. Clean and comfortable structure. Excellent breakfast. Very kind and helpful staff

Maybe just missing a hairdryer, otherwise everything great
The riad is very well located, both in terms of souks, restaurants, and life in general, as well as in terms of transportation and access roads. It was super quiet, very clean and very beautiful, and the breakfast was very good. We really enjoyed this place

A BIT NOISY RIAD. VISITORS DO NOT RESPECT THE TRANQUILITY OF OTHERS. THE RIAD IS RIGHT NEXT TO THE LARGEST ROOFTOP IN ESSAOUIRA UNTIL 2 AM YOU CAN HEAR THE MUSIC
