children's pool detract from the overall smoothness. Specials are offered.
Nouveau Talborjt
The best area for budget options is away from the ocean in Nouveau Talborjt, where there
are three budget hotels on Pl Lahcen Tamri. The all-night bus activity ensures that most
hotel receptions here are open 24 hours; the area is a little seedy.
Hotel Sindibad
( 0528 82 34 77; sinhot@menara.ma; Pl Lahcen Tamri; s/d Dh300/350; )
This blue-and-
white building, above a patisserie on the square, has small en-suite rooms. The star attrac-
tion is the pint-sized rooftop pool.

TOP EATING SPOTS
Passage Aït Souss
Opposite the museum on this pedestrianised walkway, cafes serve everything from
Moroccan dishes to pizza.
Souq al-Had
At lunchtime, tajines bubble away outside the many cheap cafes.
Nouveau Talborjt
In the morning, snack stands on Ave du 29 Février are popular for Moroccan pan-
cakes and mint tea; for lunch or dinner, budget cafes and restaurants have seats on Pl Lahcen Tamri.
Port
At the entrance to the port, off Ave Mohammed V, you can pick up an ultra-fresh, no-nonsense
fish meal from around Dh70. Check costs before ordering; the various catches differ greatly in price
(seafood such as crab is about Dh300 per 1kg). The stalls close in the early evening during the winter.
