Write a reviewStaying in the medina in Essaouira is not as exciting as in Marrakech, however, this BnB is close to the restaurants and not too far from the beach. They don't have someone monitoring reception at all hours so they give you keys to the riad and your room. The room was small but the bathroom was quite large.

After I booked this hotel, the host sent me some information and teach me how to get to the hotel. I really appreciated it (too easy to get lost in Morocco..)
The hotel was easy to find. Around 5 mins walking from the supratours bus station.
My room was big, clean and very comfortable.
Host was very warm, friendly, helpful.
The day I leave Essaouira, I missed the supratours bus. The host helped me to call the CTM bus to see if it is full or not. And teach me how to go to CTM bus station. So sweet!!!

We were welcomed extremely nicely by the owner. We can just agree to previous recommendations and there is nothing to complain about. Have a visit to the restaurant Triskala.
For those with backproblems you should know that the madrasses are really hard, which is rather standard in Marrocco. I personally found the room a bit to dark (no windows which is also normal in a riad and keeps the room cool).

Room Tip: We had rum 4. This is the room on the upper floor. Really quiet.

Agne was immensely helpful from the moment of first contact (as I knew she would be), confirming that gluten free breakfast would be no problem as long as we brought our own bread (omelette, fruit, yoghurt, butter, jam, fresh juice and tea was provided and made a great start to to the day).
She gave a view on my thoughts of places to eat and made her own recommendations, and she pre-booked a minivan for the six guests arriving on the same flight from London to take us to the riad, and booked a table at a place we wanted to eat at in advance and arranged transport. It was a shame that she had to travel away from Morocco when we actually stayed as we would love to have met her, and her cook Fatima did an excellent job of looking after us in her absence.
The riad is quite unprepossessing from the outside and the corridor inside the front door is dark. But once inside the living room is comfortable and nicely designed, with a pleasant small dining room and kitchen off, which is available to use and so perfect for storing wine in the fridge (the grog shop is in the next street) and fixing a snack or picnic if you want to.
Our twin room on the first floor was a decent size, nicely decorated and had a good shower room with a large shower stall and constant hot water. We were comfortable there.
The roof terrace is very pleasant and amply furnished with seating and quite sheltered. The whole place is very clean.
I would recommend booking directly with Agne for the best rate, which was very reasonable, working out at approximately £23 per night for the room B&B. Wifi worked well throughout the riad.
The location is fine, being within the medina but a quiet part of it, only a few minutes from the walls/ taxi stop and a 5 minute stroll to the commercial heart of the medina.
We spent a very nice and warm relaxed early winter weekend in Essaouira and would wholeheartedly recommend this as a base to stay.
