    A convenient place in the medina with a pleasant rooftop for breakfast & great view of the beach. The staff were very friendly and flexible.

    Great location, staff is very kind and helpful. Would be great to have a kettle in the room to make your own tea, however, hot water was kindly provided. Will definitely be back!

    The breakfast area was unfortunately wet in the morning, and the cats hanging out there urinate in the sofas and pillows…

    I'm sorry for the aggressive welcoming, not offering the room, asking 65 euro for a triple when online is 47 Euro. I've could pay 15 euro extra and finish story. From a possible friendship.. nothing came positive

    I had a wonderful room and breakfast is nice

    Unless you pay on the app You will have to pay cash, which is annoying as you need to go to the cash point

    A Return visit to this Riad Great roof top space and views Location once found it (thanks Google Maps) On arrival you are given a key for the front door which feels and looks like it's made of steel, which gives a sense of security as a guest Cost including breakfast The place is so cosy that breakfast was too early for me so I unfortunately didn't get to eat it. English/French/Arabic speaking Staff Staff are really helpful and enthusiastic Room and bathroom are spacious Has WiFi, gets slightly slower once everyone is in their rooms

    The room was very comfortable, clean and there was plenty of space. It was attractively and thoughtfully decorated. Breakfast was generous and was eaten on the roof terrace. The terrace itself was great for sunbathing, relaxing or looking at the sea. Staff were very warm and welcoming.

    The turning from Rue D'Agdir to the Medina wasn't very well lit and and at night I found it a bit off putting as it was run by lots of cats.

    Location was very close to the bus station. So I found my way there quickly and easily. I stayed in 2 rooms Room 2 which stylishly decorated. Then the room on the roof. The light and windows was well appreciated. Thank you. Lots of great restaurants and shops within a couple minutes. Look out for Butterfly Space, Mandala, Pumkin, Mega Loft and Le Tolérance, Nomad and Retro Corner. For coffee and relaxation L'Atelier is the place to be.

    I had a great stay in Taghazout! The host was super friendly, always available, and very helpful with anything I needed. The location is perfect, just a short walk from the beach, making it easy to enjoy the ocean whenever I wanted. Overall, a wonderful experience, highly recommend!

    Some noisy guests, but that is something to expect sometimes in a hostel.

    It has been an awesome experience. Clean beds, beautiful rooftop and true social hostel where it is easy to meet cool people.

    There was this guy that did the night shift, he had good intentions but he wasnt so helpful also did not look very hygienic but i understand and he was friendly too not to be mean but just tip

    "Momo" was very friendly and speaks good english. He arranged a nice taxi to the airport for me eventhough it was 6:30 in the morning, I liked the room and location very much. And the room was very nice and comfortable.
