Nice property in remote location

The property was really nice but it is 15 minute drive to Essaouira town NOT as described in the VRBO advert. No shops or restaurants nearby. You definitely need a car.The host was helpful. Beds are hard and uncomfortable. No cleaning materials. Even for washing up
