Wir hatten wundervolle Tage in Essaouira und im Dar Okapi. Die Abholung von Fatima am Busbahnhof hat perfekt geklappt. Wir werden wiederkommen :-) Das Haus erreicht man durch schmale Gassen mit Straßenhunden. Hier sollte man keine Angst haben.

Large riad in great location

We had a nice stay at this riad and would rate it 4.5 stars. It had a lot of space spread over 4+ floors and nice character. It could use a little sprucing up (some painting, new outdoor cushions). Pros -big, lots of space -good central medina location -kitchen is well stocked -wifi was functional -excellent response from host (hot water heater broke and they replaced it right away) Cons -could use some extra love (outdoor cushions are worn and stained) -top terrace has potential, but needs some upkeep -some sewer smells (typical for riads) -alley was not very clean (not the host's fault)

Sehr schönes und geschmackvoll eingerichtetes Riad

Das Riad ist wirklich sehr liebevoll und sehr geschmackvoll renoviert und eingerichtet. Wir haben uns gleich wohlgefühlt. Man kann sich auch den ganzen Tag dort aufhalten, kochen, lesen oder einfach chillen.
