Océan Vagabond

Staff try their best - friendly & very helpful with local info. Always helpful to find suitable restaurants for lunch & dinner short walking distance to the Medina

Hotel facilities are tired. (Walls are damaged, poo edgesl broken, Entrance area looks sad, rooms smell a bit musty) Located at one of the main streets of Essaouria, traffic noise at pool and rooms towards street all day & night.

The building has a lot of potential but for us it seems like the management and the sense for proper service has left the building. For this price we expected a lot more. The towels and sheets are old and have permanent stains. At breakfast, the plates were chipped and not washed properly, and the tablecloths were dirty. The location is also very noisy and the windows doesn’t shut properly. However, the staff were kind enough to let us change rooms to one with a bit less noise.

Staff helpful and very friendly; almost ott I think to make up for the horrible state of this property. Breakfast good.

Where do I start - it is horribly run down ; door onto our balcony was hanging out of hinges and couldn’t be locked or closed.People could get onto balcony by climbing from either side easily as abutted each other. Curtains hanging off hooks and faded. No towels when asked they were being washed and dried from previous day. When delivered the most disgraceful towels I have seen.No lift though they helped us with luggage up steep steps. Air conditioning didn’t work was told to leave windows open : we were 2 females who are security conscious . As it turned out we couldn’t close door onto balcony anyway. Great location but dog barking all night ; cars tooting no sound proofing. This place is like faulty towers it needs a complete makeover or pulling down. This was an expensive hotel for this area( Essouira is fabulous) when we walked down sea front promanade and saw what we could have been in for the same price we nearly cried. If we had been staying another night we would have moved.
