Clean, quiet, comfortable. Great location. Close to Malaga Centro. There is a sewage smell in the bathroom with both sink and shower draining slow. Management should look into it. The check-in is different as you take an elevator to the 4th floor of the Hostel, then take the elevator down to street level and go next door where you take a different elevator to your 4th floor hotel room. Again, a great location.

Lack of air conditioning.

I was so delighted when I walked into the room. It was everything I'd hoped for. Until I tried to go to sleep at night and the air conditioner was not actually blowing cold air. I tossed and turned and tossed and turned and finally left before 8:00 a.m.

At first, I was put off because I had to check in in the hostel area. I was concerned that I wasn’t going to get the room that I paid for however they manage a hotel next-door and the room was extremely clean, very well located and included a refrigerator, kettle to make coffee, free instant coffee packets, and a lovely little balcony. They also left two free bottles of water and lent me a beach towel and umbrella for the day without charge. Breakfast was nothing to ride home about, but it was only three euros Overall, I would recommend the hotel
