Good quality dorm
Though it was a little run down, the dorms were clean and safe, with clean communal bathrooms. There were also lounge and tv communal areas and the staff were friendly.

In need of full makeover
Location good. Hostel is 'Dilapidated and dungeon-like'. Everything broken, ceiling hanging off and buckets placed to catch water dripping from above.... Unloved and not decorated for years. Could be a fantastic facility with money invested. Breakfast very limited in dark, depressing room so we went out to local eateries instead. Thankfully no issues with security as this was a worry. Cheap option if you know what to expect.

Convenient but extremely nosy
I was first given a room which was poorly decorated and very round down. I asked for another room and luckly there was another one available. I stayed just for one night in a well decorated and comfortable single room. The location is fantastic, right in the centre of Malaga, in the old town. However, the noise from the street and restaurants was unbearable, it went on till 1 in the morning.

Basic acco in a great location for the bars
For a budget over-night stay in a hostel, this suits the purpose. It is centrally located in the pedestrian district of Malaga on a street a few minutes away from the bars and night-life whilst away from the throbbing centre. It was noisy however all night-long, as though the bars are a short distance away, the bins are removed and the streets are washed overnight... In fact, the receptionist who showed me to the room did recommend that I keep the door blinds closed to keep out the noise. It's not ideal, but then again, it would be the same with any non-air con hotel in this part of the city. The shared toilets were clean, there was a water cooler to fill up the water bottle with cold drinking water; however the fridge was rather scary as the lack of shelves meant lodgers' food was piled on top of the other.

Very friendly staff, safe and clean. Facilities were generally basic as was the breakfast. Would stay there again. Excellent central location.

Basic room for a fair price
No extras included here but that wasn't an issue for me. Be sure to look out for the number of the premises as the frontage doesn't give much away. Location is perfect for exploring the historic centre of Malaga. Free wifi and some vending machines in the foyer. Breakfast is fine for grabbing a roll and some coffee but nothing more. Again, the price reflects this.

Quite possibly the worst hotel experience ever
DO NOT DRIVE TO THIS HOTEL. I spent hours trying to find a way in to the maze of streets most going one way. Later realized you couldn't get near the hotel until after 10pm or so bcuz the blocked the roads. Finally parked in a garage 5 or more blocks away. When I arrived, I was treated very rudely by the manager. The room was average at best and the bathrooms were not very clean. The breakfast was good, but that was about it. Stay at the IBIS down the street for a little more you get much better conditions and a place to park
