The location is so beautiful. The staff was lovely and knowledgeable and the stay was fine, but really I would recommend this place on the location alone. Such an incredible view.

We had an amazing two days at Babia Backpackers in Ronda. The view of el puente nuevo is SPECTACULAR from the hostel's terrace and the staff is very friendly and sociable. Hasta la próxima!

By far the best part of the hostel was the fact it faced the Puente Nuevo, a stunning view. The staff were also very friendly. I´d stay there again.

Here has the best view of the new bridge, from the window of the room (and the balcony) can clearly see the stunning scene! It's really amazing and worthwhile to come and see by yourself. The location is definitely the highlight of here and every tourist spot is walkable. But has two main defeat, 1) you need to pay 5 euros more to have heater in room it's not included in the price of booking. 2) wifi is only available in living room, but not in bedroom, and it's a bit inconvenient.

This was the most dirty hostel we´ve ever been. In some rooms mold on the walls. It must be cleaned and renovated urgently!

Worst hostel I've ever seen! Better pay some Euros more and find a nice hotel room without mouldy walls and incompetent/bored staff. Some of the hostel rooms are not lockable (there's a locker in the room, but no key for each locker, haha) and the "fresh" linen seemed to be used. There's just one bathroom for the whole hostel and the state of cleanliness left a lot to be desired. Apparently the house hasn't been renovated for years which is a pity as the view to the old bridge is perfect.

This place has potential to be excellent, but it lacks some care of the staff. But it is good to spent one night in Ronda, since you dont need more than that to see the city, that is amazing.

This hostel has the most amazing view, I would go back just for that. The staff are friendly and helpful. Only problem was I couldn't get the lock on my locker to work.

This hostel is worth coming simply for the view alone. it is situated on a rock cliff overlooking the grand bridge of Ronda, the cities main attraction. The staff are warm, welcoming, friendly and helpful. Across the street is the cheapest tapas bar in town a good deal.

Really enjoyed my stay, albeit it was just one night, and WHAT A VIEW! The hostel is literally set opposite Puente nuevo and is just about the best spot to take pictures from. I suppose one can't expect much at this time of year but there wasn't really much of an atmosphere at the hostel. Just me and one other guy who wanted to go out for a drink. Everybody else was super boring. Overall I was mightily impressed. Staff were great too :)

Overall facilities were pretty decent, but ventilation didn't work properly so that it stinks sometimes. However, the location was so good and people I met ther was all awesome!
