Service was intermittent. Room was pleasant but bathroom was below par. Not a single hook to hang damp towels. Breakfast was only served on an upstairs outdoor terrace which was cold in January.. This riad could be fine and has potentially a lot of character, but it felt run down. What a pity! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 25 Dec 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service A very pleasant family run Riad in Essouaira. Good breakfast and great rooftop. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Abdelkader 21 Oct 2019 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Moment agréable à essaouira Très bon accueil. Personnel très agréable et attentionné. Bonne situation du Riad directement dans le centre a proximité des remparts. Terrasse Sur toiture avec vue sur 360 degrés.
