My stay at this hotel was like having a small apartment on the ground floor, with beautiful paintings reflecting Morocco's essence. The setting, although charming, came with a minor inconvenience of a dirty towel. The value for money was reasonable.

The hotel is located in a very quiet area at the end of town right by the old battlements, making it easy to walk to everything. The rooms are heated with gas heaters, which can be a bit smelly, but they are cozy and include a separate sitting area. The service is top-notch with attentive and polite staff, although the cleanliness could be improved. The dining experience offers traditional Moroccan delights included in the room rate. Overall, a good value for money.

The hotel is in a prime location in the vibrant Medina with good access to the beach, offering traditional Moroccan pastries and a home-like atmosphere. The rooms, though more shabby than 'shabby chic,' are adorned with paintings reflecting Essaouira's beach location. The service provided by Mina and Meriem was wonderful but the experience faltered in Marrakech. Despite some drawbacks, the dining experience included in the room rate was outstanding, while facilities like a swimming pool added to the overall charm.

The service, on the other hand, was exceptional, making us feel like part of the family. The location was peaceful with stunning views, but the dining options were somewhat limited.

The hotel was a mix of shabby chic and spacious elegance, perfectly positioned right on the seafront with stunning views and sunsets. The rooms were superb, including separate sitting areas, and my own little roof terrace added to the charm. The friendly service and wonderful staff made the stay even more delightful, willing to help with anything and recommending great restaurants. The location was excellent, offering a fantastic view from the rooftop terrace. The dining experience, while generous, fell short in inspiration at times. The facilities were top-notch, providing a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere overall.

My stay at the riad was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, although a bit small and lacking proper ventilation, were uniquely decorated and each had its own private terrace with sun loungers. The service, particularly from Hicham, was exceptional and very welcoming, providing valuable tips and a personalized touch. The location was excellent, offering views over the ramparts and the ocean with easy access to the seafront and central areas. The dining experience was adequate, served in the charming courtyard area. However, the price could have offered better value for money considering some areas for improvement in the facilities.
