I agree with the recent comments. The place is horrible. Furniture is very limited and the rooms are cold. It seems that there have been no restoration for 10 years. Almost impossible to contact the hotel. Above all, the location is very noisy given that the trendiest roof top is just...in front

Excellent location. Quite place. Everything was clean, good breakfast and nice people. Very beautiful moroccan style hotel. Since the reservation with Teresa and once st the hotel with Houda, they have been very nice with us and help us with everything we needed.

I had the pleasure of staying two nights in this lovely authentic riad. From the moment you step in, you know this is a special place! The decor is fabulous and shows great attention to detail. My room and the common areas are spotlessly clean. My room was on the top floor. Outside was a large patio/balcony common area with seating. Great for stargazing! There is an atrium in the middle, you can see down to the first floor. My bed was comfortable, the breakfast was delicious, and the shower was gorgeous! All of the staff I encountered were friendly and helpful. In addition, this riad is far easier to find than most! It is centrally located in the old city area and is a five minute walk to the beach. Highly recommend!

This is a very nice riad, in the perfect location in the Medina. Theresa and her husband do whatever they can to make you comfortable. They even made me gluten free crepes! It is very clean and the decor is so lovely! I highly recommend staying here.

The staff is wonderful and the breakfast is delicious. The rooms are acquaint and I think they were very clean. It was hard to find the plug in! But I think that's kind of a minor thing. I found that a lot of the hotels where we stayed in Morocco didn't have things in the normal places as far as Outlets go and lighting was usually a problem but it was all very Charming and it was not noisy even though it was in the medina. It's on an off Street and I could hear no noise from outside.

Me and my husband are locals and we have stayed here one night to be repeated surely when coming to essaouira city. They give discounts for big groups and long term stays – I recommend contacting them directly for the best price. This is an authentic Moroccan riad loaded with antiques painstaking collected by the local owners over the years and decorated as a labor of love and coziness. Tea is happily provided when welcoming. Breakfast can be included with the room hot and fresh. There is a calm energy and a coziness about the place. They seem to love the riad and their guests. It is in an easy and fabulous location in the Medina. A short walk to the beach, the square, souk and squala. Finding it is super easy using google maps. I highly recommend this riad, especially for English speakers looking for an authentic Moroccan experience! Thank you Teresa and Loqman.
