    The place is excellent - literally the city center. The staff - can’t remember his name - was a great guy. Good breakfast prepared in front of your eyes with two lovely ladies. Clean room and good aesthetics.

    The staff was absolutely incredible. I felt like a valued guest at this Riad, as a solo traveler I appreciated this because I didn't really feel "alone" in Essaouira. Amine was helpful with any question or request I had and made me feel so at home...

    The breakfast was at the level of a five star hotel and the staff was extremely friendly. This is probably the best place to stay in Essaouira.
