Biz and his team are awesome, the rooms are very comfy and they've just finished painting the whole place. it's an awesome atmosphere and the roof top is a great place to chill out. Highly recommend staying at this hostel - don't go to essaouira for a day trip, stay a week.

It was very clean and a good place to meet pêople. But it was loud and the shower was never hot. There are better places to stay in Essaouira I spent 2 nights and then found another hotel.

They're are definitely better choices in Essaouira, the atmosphere wasn't great and overall I would just say it was just an boring, average hostel. Lockers would have been good. Haven't spoken to any staff here during the stay. That said, it was one of the cheapest here and it was clean.

Very nice hostel with a lot on offer. Easy to get to..Supertour bus stops jsut outside Medina and hostel is easy to find ~10min walk. They have signs as well pointing you in right direction and the directions that came once booked very accurate. Decent sized hostel with plenty of people staying so very good to meet other back packers. Very big common room wiht bar, play station, tv, hammock, sofa and internet. They have toilet and two showers on each flower. Showers are secure and decent size...water comes out powerful and hot immediatley, this palce had the best showers I used whilst there and was really pleanst suprise, can't beat a good shower!! They had a party there one night as was owners birthday which was great fun. They are always happy to help and offer advice.Rooms had bunk beds, covers, and towels. You are right in the Medina near all the attractions of the souks, beach, port, etc... well worth it..but just for back packers really.

The atmosphere in this place is fantastic, really lively and fun. There's chatting and music late into the night and it's a really good place to meet fellow travellers! Also really clean and the facilities are awesome! I really can't fault it.

great place to hang out and meet people... it is a small medina, so location is not a problem, easy to walk everywhere. Free surfboards to use when the waves are good! all in all, a great experience!

the best place we stayed in for meeting other travelers. Very sociable atmosphere. The staff let you borrow surfboards for free and there is a kitchen on the roof for cooking your own food. Only downside was that it didnt provide breakfast, which when you are paying as much as you are would be included. Overall, really fun and deservs its rating as the second best hostel in africa :)
