Riad Nakhla in Essaouira

A group of 13 of us visited for 2 nights . First impressions were good but second impressions less so. Our room had a smell of dampness. Our sheets were damp. The lack of basic facilities was noticeable. Lack of hooks for hanging towels, batteries in tv remote etc. Breakfast was basic and disappointing. Companions rooms similar. Water pooling in sinks, no hot water and a general substandard level of cleanliness. Breakfast was on a tired looking terrace.

Room different than pictures. Very basic. Not even a bottle of water in the room. Just go somewhere else

We were put here by the local hotel Melchouar Palace after they double booked us (family of 4, 2 kids). Town was extremely busy and we were told we were lucky to even get two rooms, which I believe. However, this Riad is one of the most disgusting establishments I have had the misfortune to stay in. Room 103 has water and mould dripping down the bedroom wall, mould all over the bathroom, serious cracks in all the plasterwork, and absolutely stank. Room 102 had cockroaches in the bathroom. The sheets all had stains on them and when I checked the pillows within the cases, they were riddled with mould. The upstairs terrace had crumbling paint and plaster everywhere and looked derelict. Breakfast was 2 boiled eggs between 4 of us and some random cold fly covered pancakes left out. We asked for plates and coffee and felt that we were putting the staff out. During the night there sounded like a massive fight down in either the road or the passage outside - my 12 year old daughter was terrified and I actually pulled furniture across the door. I have travelled the world and this was one of the worst establishments I have had the misfortune to stay in. AVOID

The rooms were very stuffy, with no air-conditioning, no fans, and no windows opening to outside. The only window in my room opened to the internal courtyard and I did not feel safe leaving it open when I wasn’t there. The staff were not welcoming, were loud and when I requested soap for my room they were rude. They also refused to carry our bags to our rooms. The rooms had not been serviced properly, although the bed was comfortable. The other members of my tour group all felt the same. The breakfast was not appetising. I would not recommend this hotel at all!

Disappointed
I booked a room with a city view but was given a room with no view and no sunlight, the room smelled of mold, the garbage from the previous guest was still there, there were no toiletries, and the sheets were dirty, the breakfast was alzo very disappointing and not worth mentioning. On top of that, the price was high for such poor quality, definitely not worth the money

Place did not match description or advertised pictures.
A very small and tiny room.
No basic toiletry available and no towels.
Bed sheets were stained.
Would not recommend or stay there again.
But I would say 1 thing the service was great!
