The room was very small, almost like a jail cell, the bathtub was old and half the size with shower curtains touching while showering. The place was noisy and you could hear everyone. The staff was very unfriendly.

Response from The owner on 12 May 2022
Dear client here in Spain, it is said, a liar is caught before a lame person. The day after his arrival he went to reception asking to cancel the rest of the night of his stay, the first thing I asked him as the owner was if there was a problem with the room, to which he answered me emphatically that no, that I had a personal problem and had to leave and you had already contacted the agency to request the cancellation of a reservation you made and from which I accept the conditions of the reservation with expedia.com and they answered that your reservation could not be canceled and you continued insisting, when the agency's response was that if he could leave but that his money was not going to be refunded, he continued the rest of his contracted nights, so he lied to try to take advantage of obtaining an advantageous price when reserving more nights with conditions restrictive, now, imagine that you would like to spend your nights and the hotel tells you that you have to leave because there is a client who is willing to pay triple what that you have paid, surely it would not seem legal to you because the reservation is a contract where the hotel offers you accommodation at a certain price for the contracted nights in exchange for the commitment that you will pay for what has been agreed, neither more nor less, lying to obtain a profit and then blackmail to get away with it is the least bit of a miserable person. The fundamentals of society are for civilized people and it has proven to be dishonest, mean and unscrupulous, luckily people read the comments and replies.

It was an ideal base for the money. The room was clean and had everything we needed. Location is great for getting to the beach or onto town. Malaga’s bus service into city centre is very good. Parking however is all on street and it can be difficult to find a space at certain times of the day. Very Spanish area and plenty of places to eat nearby. Great walks along the sea front in both directions.

Clean comfortable hostel
The hostel was clean and comfortable the towels replaced every second day which is good to know the hostel is eco friendly and they don't provide loads of plastic mini bottles which I don't like. It was in a quiet area close to the bus stop and a supermarket as well as restaraunts and takeaway and it was at a decent price. Very pleased with hostal moscatel and i would book again.

Basic good value family-run hotel
Basic but good value for money. Room perfectly ok - had twin for single occupancy. Very quiet at night too, at least until the nearby gym got going! Friendly and helpful staff (eg let us print our boarding passes out on their computer). However, the reception is not manned 24/7. It's about 3 miles (5km) from the centre of Malaga eastwards along the coast, but there's a very good, cheap and frequent bus service (3, 11, N1); takes about 20 mins and runs 24/7.

Good morning, You made a reservation through an online agency and since you needed to stay in two rooms, they decided to make two reservations at the same time in the same establishment, one of them through hotels.com. You have not booked directly with the hotel, I did it through from a page that buys and sells the reservations through a third party, this has caused the problem and the agency agreed to refund the reservation because it understands that the fault is not the hotel's, because if it were the hotel's fault we would have to take responsibility. of the rehousing payment, we understand your frustration but it is not our responsibility.

Bonjour, il manquait une ampoule à une lampe, problème avec le robinet du lavabo. Accueil moyen, sinon absent. Coupure d'électricité en pleine nuit. Le ménage fait le matin (au lieu des après-midi dans tous les autres hôtels où j'ai été). Très bruyant, notre chambre donnait sur la rue (1èr étage) L'emplacement est sympa, mais c tout

Good morning. For customers who read this comment, clarify the following. Cleaning is done until 1 pm, however, when a client comes to rest and is in his room we do not bother him. When a client leaves in the afternoon and needs something he asks at the reception, this information is available on the billboard at reception and in the rooms. Regarding the light, in the residential area there was a fault completely foreign to the establishment which the company resolved in less than an hour. Do you talk about a light bulb that burned, said something at the reception ?, did you say something that was not attended to? Really there are people who have no common sense, going on vacation and that a light bulb is a reason to spoil a vacation means that the problem comes from home. It is easier to ask and be well served than to remain silent and frustrated. It's just a council! Bonjour. Pour les clients qui lisent ce commentaire, clarifiez les points suivants. Le ménage est fait jusqu'à 13 heures. Cependant, lorsqu'un client vient se reposer et est dans sa chambre, cela ne le dérange pas. Lorsqu'un client quitte l'après-midi et a besoin de quelque chose qu'il demande à la réception, cette information est disponible sur le panneau d'affichage à la réception et dans les chambres. En ce qui concerne la lumière, il y avait dans la zone résidentielle une faille complètement étrangère à l'établissement que l'entreprise a résolue en moins d'une heure. Parlez-vous d'une ampoule qui a brûlé, a dit quelque chose à la réception?, Avez-vous dit quelque chose qui n'a pas été soigné? Vraiment il y a des gens qui n'ont pas de bon sens, partir en vacances et qu'une ampoule est une raison pour gâcher des vacances signifie que le problème vient de chez soi. Il est plus facile de demander et d'être bien servi que de rester silencieux et frustré. C'est juste un conseil!

Hostal in Málaga/Pedregalecho
Die Leute vom Service waren sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Ich hatte ein großes schönes Zimmer mit Balkon und ein großes Bad, sogar mit Bidet - alter mediterrane Komfort! Mit der Heizung gab es zwei Nächte Probleme, sie lief zeitweise. Dann wurde sie aber wie gewünscht abgestellt, und ich mußte danach das Frühstück nicht bezahlen, wie sonst üblich. Das Hostal liegt außerhalb von Málaga, das muß man wissen, die Stadt ist aber mit dem Bus gut erreichbar.

La habitación demasiado pequeña. La cama imposible de dormir con ese colchón,se escuchaban todos los ruidos. El primer día me cambiaron la toalla cuando realmente ni me hacía falta y luego la que tenía estaba super mojada y ahí me la dejaron. Sinceramente en esa zona que queda en la afueras de MÁLAGA debía de tener mejores ofertas y lo digo porque ya he estado en otro más cercano y ni punto de comparación con éste. Sinceramente no repetiría. El ambiente de terraceo muy bueno hay supermercados y sitios donde ir.

Vlak bij het strand, maar niet erg luxe.
Het hotel is oké voor de prijs die je betaalt. Lekker dicht bij het strand en leuke wijkjes. Het centrum van Malaga is binnen 20 minuten te bereiken met de bus. Receptie is vaak gesloten of er is niemand aanwezig. Ruimtes zijn wat verouderd en niet brandschoon. Maar nogmaals: je betaalt niet de hoofdprijs, dus kan je ook geen echte luxe verwachten.
