    spacious room
    attentive staff
    delicious breakfast
    wi-fi issues

    Staying at Riad Aylal was fantastic. The spacious room had a lovely natural light, especially from the roof terrace. Shelves in the shower were a thoughtful touch. The staff impressed me with their attentiveness, arranging my airport taxi seamlessly. I loved the delicious Moroccan tea served upon arrival. it made my stay feel special. The breakfast was a delightful spread, featuring freshly brewed tea and an inviting atmosphere. I did encounter some chilly nights, as December brought cooler temperatures, and the heating could have been better. Wi-Fi connection was unreliable at times, which made planning my day a bit tricky. an excellent location in the medina, but be prepared for some minor inconveniences with water pressure in the shower and Wi-Fi issues.

    bright room
    comfortable blankets
    damp smell

    The room on the top floor had a bright atmosphere, providing a refreshing change with plenty of natural light. Enjoying a cozy night under warm blankets made for a comfortable stay despite the chilly December weather.

    The first-floor room faced another building, leaving me with no view and some audible disturbances from the neighbors. the bathroom emitted a strong damp smell, which was hard to ignore and affected the overall experience. Water pressure in the shower was lower than I'd hoped for, adding to the minor inconveniences.

    excellent location in a cul-de-sac in the Medina, spacious roof terrace for sunbathing, convenient shelves in the shower

    Chilly rooms in December could use better heating!!! Low water pressure in the shower was quite bothersome!!! WiFi issues were irritating at times!!! Finding the place could be a real challenge at first!!!

    Awesome location and comfy stay

    The place is super central, yet you can actually find some calm. Breakfast was a real treat with fresh tea and a good spread. Had a bit of trouble locating it at first, though. Rooms are spacious and super clean. Just wish the Wi-Fi was a bit more reliable, especially when planning our day.

    It was just an excellent fit for a flash stay in Essaouira with good value. The staff were very attentive, helping me with local recommendations that made my trip memorable. Check the water pressure in the shower before you settle in.

    The top-floor double room offered an inviting brightness, a delightful change from the initial space that was quite dark. The staff truly impressed with their attentiveness, ensuring all my needs were met, including a well-coordinated taxi to the airport. Breakfast featured not only delicious Moroccan tea but also exemplary hand-cut beef tartare, which was a standout. intermittent Wi-Fi issues were a bit frustrating, and the water pressure in the shower could be improved, as it was lower than expected.

    Family with children, better than expected

    Staff were incredibly kind and helpful! ! They even assisted in transfers to the airport late at night! Plus, they let our group store luggage for the whole day after checkout! We felt so welcomed and at home, just like family.

    It wasn't exactly cheap, but still very much acceptable.
