Very nice hostel, full of art. Although located in the bustling Medina, it is very quiet and peaceful. There are lockers in the dormitories (but you need to have a lock or rent one from the reception). Dormitory beds are equipped with a privacy curtain and a reading lamp. Breakfast is excellent. There is a nice terrace on the roof where you can enjoy the sun or the stars and listen to the ocean :) The first time you find this hostel is not very easy (follow the directions on Medina street) but after that it is very easy.

Literally everything. Just wish I stayed longer. Staff were incredibly helpful, with my late arrival, and with things to see and do in Essaouira. Double bed bunks in a hostel is an amazing idea. Rooftop terrace is really nice too

All hostels in Essaouira

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

The staff were amazing, and so was the vibe. Great location inside the medina. It's not perfect, but it's definitely worth it and more for the cheap price we paid!!! I would stay here again if I travel on a budget.

Great location in medina. The prettiest hostel I've seen interior-vise. 2 lovely cats living in the riad. Homely atmosphere, great for meeting people and hang out! Quiet in the night.

All the staff is very friendly, the rooftop terrace is perfect for chilling, socializing and seeing the sunset, and the food served there at the bar is tasty. Even though it's a cheap hostel it keeps the minimum standards and since each floor can only be accessed by the people staying on it (they have security codes to enter the floor and room) the cleanness level doesn't get affected so much during the day. A very good budget friendly stay.
