Everything was great! Location is very central so you’re close to chaotic market but once you enter hostel, it’s peaceful and quiet. The room is very cozy, the owners put a lot of attention to details and design. The common areas and the rooftop are awesome. The staff was very welcoming, special thanks to Marouane for his kindness, always smiling and helping with any question.

Boasting dry cleaning services, this property also provides guests with a terrace. The accommodation provides a shared kitchen, a concierge service and currency exchange for guests.

A continental breakfast is available at the hostel. This is a wonderful hostel and hotel located very close to the center of town and the beach. The staff especially Ahmed, Elias and Abdul were so friendly and welcoming. They invited me to a feast one night and we played music and games in the family room by the fireplace. The bedroom was very quiet, the pool was clean, the breakfast was delicious. I didn't order dinner but it looked amazing. The common areas and room and bathroom were cleaned and stocked regularly. Ahmed provided me a towel for free when I asked and organized a taxi for me to Ghazoua when I was departing that arrived on time. And of course the price is so cheap! I will return one day.

The property is 600 metres from Plage d'Essaouira, and within 300 metres of the city centre. Great hostel! We stayed in one of the private rooms, and although a bit small overall it was good value for money as the bathrooms and floor is only shared with other private rooms. The hostel was very modern and clean. The location of the hostel is great aswell and the staff were lovely, and super friendly and provided great tips! would definitely recommend

Bike hire and car hire are available at this hostel and the area is popular for cycling. I'm in love with Essaouira from the first sight! And this hostel is a part of that. Firstly- very central location, when I mean central it means you're in the heart of Essaouira. The staff communicates perfectly, the conditions to stay in this hostel was almost ideal! Already missing Essaouira! Merci 🌼
