It is beautiful raid house right by the sea, but a little old house, something is not working, even the TV. Best is very convenient location, medina just a minute. Roof terrace is wonderful with great sea view! We saw the rainbow on the sea when we had breakfast!

Because of the parking is offsite , be wary of bogus guides on the way to the hotel who harass you along the way, they try to collect a commission off of you.

Smelly and Noisy!
Despite being booked in for 3 nights I had to check out after 1 night. The entire place had a very strong odour of what is described as humid wood but actually smelt of vomit and a baby nappy! I spent most of my night sniffing a perfumes scarf to get through it. In addition, as their restaurant was in the courtyard with the rooms over looking it, it remained open and noisy till about 01.30. The windows and doors might as well be non existent as they didn’t provide any respite from the noise. Fortunately the staff at the reception were very understanding and did refund my money back and were apologetic however I would be very very cautious about booking in here unless you have a weak sense of smell and sleep deeply in any circumstances.

Disgrace
Very disappointed overall. No access of cars, I had to carry my two cases by foot for 1k from the public parking, and again when I left. The price was over rated for this room. No iron in the hotel, no help with luggage, brakefast was very poor, the food looked not fresh.

Lovely hotel close to everything.
Start every day with breakfast on the rooftop terrace overlooking the Atlantic Ocean & looking into the ramparts. Staff were excellent & room spacious.
