Sadiya was such a great help..making early breakfast so we could meet our transport, arranging porter, directions to shops and restaurants..always ready to assist. Unlike our other breakfasts, there was a little variety at Afram...that was nice. Her helper (didn't get name) was also cheerful and diligent.

Atlantic Hostel has a shared lounge, terrace, a restaurant and bar in Essaouira. The accommodation features a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, a shared kitchen and free WiFi.

Bike hire and car hire are available at this hostel and the area is popular for cycling. This is my favorite hostel ever. I was a little worried about not being able to lock my things up while I was out but I knew immediately after walking in that there was no reason to worry. The vibe here is unmatchable, the staff is incredible, there’s many travelers but also many Moroccans, which is amazing. Iftar and Sohoor here is an awesome experience
