Amazing hostel with a charming rooftop and great views of Essaouira. Nadia and Hicham and all the other people who worked at the hostel were most loving and served a delicious breakfast every morning. The Wifi worked well, the facilities got cleaned every day, and the common area invites to socialize with fellow travelers. The dorms are simple and spacious with lockers and individual charging outlets. A beautiful spot to relax and recharge.

Beautiful hostel in a great location. The staff are incredible and I had a wonderful stay. Met wonderful people that made my time in Essaouira memorable.

Super chill hostel with a very tasteful design. The rooms have doors but they have no locks so there is no way to isolate yourself really, which forces people to the common arrea and facilitates conversations. The environment is very comfortable, and through that makes you feel at home and more keen to open yourself up and make new friends. Above all that, there's free tee time around 6-8 pm which again tightens the connections. Overall, a great hostel!
