The hostel was okay. I stayed there for two nights. There was no hot water the first night so had to shower with freezing cold water. But the second day, since I showered in the day, the water was hot. I don't know if the timing of the day has something to do with that. Also, we were 8 of us at hostel and 6 of my friends had bite marks all over their bodies. So yes there are bedbugs here. Too many bedbugs for 10 bucks, but if you're lucky you can get a good night sleep - worth the money.

We have 3 bathroom, 1 just cold water. We don't have bed bugs, Do you see any bed bugs??? maybe was just mosquitos or maybe you got samething outside the hostel. I'm lucky if get people speak just the truth, no bird brain.

Good, basic hostel. Nice kitchen and bathrooms, not many rooms so it won't feel crowded. However, walls are very thin and it was incredibly noisy due to loud neighbors and doors slamming throughout the building. No wifi. Breakfast was bread, jam, and coffee.

We've spent several days in this hostel, we don't have anything bad to say about it. Owner was helpful and knew when asked for help. Breakfast included --> tous with marmelade (nothing special but at least something small). Kitchen quite good and equiped. Showers were not so nice, looks like in military - 3 showers next to each other, water pressure nothing special. In general nice staying here, but house quite scary when entered for first time ;-)

We enjoyed our stay, but there's a big lack of security there... It's an apartment, so there are locals living in the same building. The front door remains all the time opened and one night a hobo enteredat the apartment and didn't want to leave. But apart from that it was great!

We had a great stay at this ideally situated hostel. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The price was very cheap as well, so definitely a great place to stay in Malaga.

the price makes it worthwhile. good staff and very good location. One thing that made my stay in the hostel bad is my new neighbor, homeless crazy man, that made a conflict with us and stole my food in the fridge!

A homeless guest? don´t think so. When you tollme you fill uncomfortable, I changed him to another room, even when you don´t was very gently with other guest. Stolen your food? really? U didn´t mentionit about.... what was? spaguetty?

Pillows and blankets smelled by sweat, but sheets were clean, new and smelled fresh, what makes really mixed feelings to me. Bathrooms were not that great either, comparing to many other hostels around, but it was not bad, overall, it is probably worth the money. At least staff is nice...

We wash pillows and blankets very often, every two or three weks. How often you clean your own pillows and blanquets at home?

It's clean and out of season there are no problems with a bathroom. The owner gave us a map and explained everything about the city and he also has very good english level.

Not a typical youth hostel atmosphere, but definitely a great value--Ilan was really helpful, and everything was clean and comfortable.Good location, within easy walking distance of everything you want to do. We would stay here again.

This hostel was cheap during a busy period, and I now know why! Not clean, bathroom was 1 room with 3 showers and a toilet with nothing separating them. I would avoid staying here when there are other options, but during busy periods it's ok for a cheap option for a couple of days.

It is perfect for just a stand-by night, very cheap. But atmosphere is kind of weird, so I would no stay if I were a girl.

I would really recommend this hostel. It has grat an tiny rooms and beautiful big kitchen with everything you need in it. It´s as well quite close to the citycenter and we really enjoyed to stay there.
