    The breakfast was filling and tasty. However, the layout hasn’t been thought through. The result is unnecessary queues and crowding. I am pretty sure that it would be quite straightforward to lay things out differently and create a smooth flow. We started in the separate apartment for four people. The upper bedroom was cramped had nowhere to hang clothes. Also, low ceiling in the bedroom meant my talk friend kept knocking his head! ON THE OTHER HAND, the hotel was very happy to move us when we explained the problems.

    The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The room was clean and had enough room to move around.. The bed was very comfortable. The location was excellent. Nice view from the terrace. Good breakfast.

    Big cracks in the walls of the room (probably by the earthquake), shower got cold every few moments, next to big mosque, so Muezzin woke us up every night before sunrise.

    Big clean room, kind staff, well located

    No connection in the house, Wi-Fi barely reached it. Also, if you’re taller than 180cm, this might not be the place for you. I wouldn’t it was made just for midgets, but you surely shouldn’t be tall. Lastly, the kitchen was pure decoration

    Clean, nice staff,

    Some street noise

    Location and price can"t be beat. Clean and plumbing worked well, not to be taken for granted in budget places in Morocco.

    The only thing that I felt could have been improved on was the breakfast. It was tasty enough but would have enjoyed a choice of eggs etc. But other than that all was good. 😊

    Friendly staff. Great location. Nice view.

    Loved everything about Riad Nakhla. Beautiful, clean and spacious rooms. Hot showers. Great buffet-style breakfast and amazing, helpful staff. The location was excellent and within easy reach of all the major sights with a wide range of cafes and restaurants on the doorstep. I'd definitely stay here again and extended my stay. Also liked the reduced rate for booking in person. I was given a map on arrival with recommendations too. Thanks again to Farrah, Rashid (owner) and all the other lovely people at Nakhla! A very memorable stay. They also own a spa called Diamant Blanc, which offers a wide selection of massages & beauty treatments. Also, a variety of hammam packages. I had a scalp massage and foot massage (reflexology) and fell asleep because it was so relaxing. Highly recommend Diamant Blanc if you are looking for an affordable and professional hammam, massage, or beauty treatments.

    The room wasn't clean, with lots of finger marks everywhere on the wooden furniture. Small table was broken. The Main light not working, Top blanket needs to be changed for a duvet that can be cleaned. No heating or AC. The door lock was broken, so we had to close the blind all the time.

    The location is really good. Easy to get around. Car park just 3mn walk

    The facility is old fashioned but also the services seem to be of the past: - Sheets and blankets were old and in a strange beige colour (not properly clean) - Soap was grand grandmother's soap - Humidity - Shower didn't drain and we had to ask for assistance - Towels were missing. We had to ask for them. - Terrace, where we had breakfast, was not very clean.

    Location in the centre: easy to reach from the bus station and to walk around in the centre of Essouira.
