    I've been traveling for years and this was one of the friendliest places I've ever stayed. Great service, very helpful and professional. Relaxed atmosphere and very good conditions in the rooms, tasty breakfasts, excellent location. But most of all the people who work there!! They make this place

    Everything was good except in the first day the bed sheets where wet a bit and the room didn't smell good due to the rate of humidity in the city

    The staff were very friendly kind and helpful. They show us where to eat, places to visit and activities to do.

    The room was a bit small and dark. We were suprised that we couldn't reach the hotel by car. We had to leave it in a pay carpark as whole the medina is walk only area. It's a shame noone has informed us about it before we arrived.

    Nice bed and breakfast located insde the closed medina. We loved the reception guy. His english was perfect and he has told us everything about the city and what was interesting there - what to see , where to eat. Also has encouraged us to try surfing what was really cool and let us stay a bit longer to be able to have shower after the surfing class. The breakfast was large and very nice!

    nothing

    Don't let the title fool you - this Riad is more like a boutique hotel with its beautiful decorations - not the simple décor I expected from a sports affiliated establishment. The bed was not as firm as our previous Riad which meant we got a great night's sleep (nice pillows). The room and bathroom was very clean and spacious. Location was perfect - not far from paid parking and all attractions. And, the staff was very friendly, helpful, and welcoming. A wonderful experience all around.

    I think they would do great doing a make over of the showers and bathroom in general. They look nice but through high humidity there is a lot of mold - however, essaouira is humid and the hostel is very close to the beach which might make it More humid.

    Nice atmosphere, perfect for adults travelers above 30, chilled but not hostel-like and also not like a fancy hotel vibe where you feel uncomfortable. You can hear the waves from The terrasse which is very nice

    Nothing, really. Breakfast could have been a little more diverse if being really picky.

    The room was beautiful in traditional moroccan style with a modern twist. The building was stunning, and the staff were exceptional. The guys at the riad were so helpful, nothing was too much trouble, and made you feel very much at home. The location was perfect, exactly what we wanted in the heart of the old city. It was extremely quiet, considering where we were based. Highly recommend

    By no fault of their own the road outside my room had a few rowdy people out and about late at night but I closed the window and it kept the noise out mostly. Also my room was on the top floor-next to the rooftop and a few guests were chatting a bit loudly but went to bed before midnight so it was quiet after. I am however a light sleeper so this was just a small issue and would not bother most people. Everything else was great.

    This was my first visit to Morocco. Spent 4 days in Marrakech and then took a bus to Essaouira. Getting off the bus a gentleman with his trolley helped me get to the Riad. Upon arrival another couple arrived shortly after me and we were all checked in together. We were met by a very friendly young man and he assisted us with a map and all the places that were recommended and also the places we wanted to see. I had a very short stay-basically 24 hours. I got a very comfortable room on the top floor. Shower was lovely and hot - bed was very comfortable. All other amenities were available. Breakfast was absolutely lovely. Coffee-fresh orange juice-omelette-toast-flapjacks with assorted jams. It was lovely and very tasty. Walking into the Riad you feel immediately comfortable and welcomed. Staff were very helpful and extremely friendly. Also very central in the Medina. Close to everything. I wish I had more time to stay but would absolutely recommend this Riad.

    This does not deserve the rating and I'm disappointed with our stay. It was expensive for the quality of linen, bathroom and the rooftop was a shambles. It was damp (that's the Essaouria weather) but no heater so everything was damp in the room. We stayed in 8 other places across Morocco and this was our least favourite. We stayed in one place only half this price which was of a much higher standard.

    Great location and super nice staff. Gave us all the information we needed. Breakfast was included and good, including an omelette.

    The shower head needed to be replaced.... but the pressure and temperature were both very good, so this is a very minor detail.

    As a family with young teens, this is a fantastic place to stay in Essaouira. The staff were so friendly and helpful, organising taxis and surfing for us. The location is very central but feels calm and relaxing as soon as you walk through the door. The decor was tasteful, the WiFi was strong in our rooms, and the breakfast was excellent. We highly recommend Riad Inna. Thank you!

    There was a smell of stinky smoke in the mornings. Not sure from where. The balcony furniture needs updating.

    The location was wonderful and the staff, was very caring and helpful. They let us leave our luggage at checkout for the day. The beds were comfortable and the room was a good size. The breakfast was good.

    Breakfast terrace cold (December - January) and uncomfortable seating and tables. Bed sheets were clean but some stain on them, probably not removable.

    Nice riad in the middle of the city, warm welcome from the receptionist with many advices, good fresh breakfast. If interested in water-sports they have what you need like surfboards and wetsuits.
