Room was the romantic suite and well worth the minor upcharge. They offered to light the fireplace, but we didn’t use it. There was a hot tub near the room that we took advantage of after a lot of walking. The hot tub was great during our January visit.
Bed was comfy, towels soft, lots of bath products. This riad room had a tv (many don’t) which was nice to watch a little something while relaxing in bed. This was the only riad we stayed with a tv - didnt miss it elsewhere.
Breakfast was also the best we experienced at any riad in Morocco. Good fruit, eggs, toasts, etc. I highly recommend staying here when in essaouira. If I am ever back, then I will not hesitate to stay here again.
For questions on parking. The fee is like 30 or 50 DH per day, but they will hassle you for more. I just paid them versus risking less care for the security of my rental vehicle. You will get a receipt to display on dash and have coming and going privileges.
