Good Points: Location was good - close to the Port and overlooking the harbour.

Bad Points: We made a reservation the day before but when we arrived, the staff seemed to have no record of our reservation.We reserved a single double bed and got two single beds.We would have overlooked all of this though had we not found bed bugs in the bed the next morning.

General comments: We woke up to bites all over our bodies and found a bed bug in the bed. We captured the bug and brought him down to to the reception and the staff appeared completely unconcerned. They claimed the insect must have flown in the window at night (bed bugs don't fly). They then implied we brought the bug with us from home to avoid paying for our room. Completely appalling in my opinion. I would never stay there again and have had to throw out my luggage to prevent having an infestation in my home.

My trip to Tangier was based around a short tour of Gibraltar, Malaga, Tangier and Marrakech. I arrived in Gibraltar, travelling from Manchester, UK and stayed two nights at the awful Cannon (see my review of that hotel) before getting the ferry to Tangier.

I had no hotel booked but was fortunate enough to meet two British gents who live there. They suggested the Hotel Continental close to the port where the ferry docks.

For information, the exchange rate is in the region of 15 - 16 Dirh ...
