    I was asked for paying 10 Euros to store my luggage for two hours. It might be fair for some people. I would have expected some flexibility after staying around 10 days in the hostel. In the end ,i checked out at 11 am as requested and stored it in the city less than half price.

    Family spirit of the hostel. Many thanks to Jonny and to the Team who assured for having our rooms & common areas clean.

    Great location and value for money for short and long stay :)
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller

    • Stayed 11 nights

    There were some minor points like the balcony door specifically in my room couldn´t be locked, but by now it has been fixed for sure. It bothered me a bit that during my stay, no staff ever entered the room, not to change the towels (although, I did have 2 large and 2 small towels, but when having 2-3 showers a day, either after going to the beach, or having to shower cause you sweat a lot in July, this isn´t either enough - however I did ask the cleaning lady one morning to give me one extra and it was not a problem) or to remove the trash from the trash bin, after 11 days staying there, the bin was full and I improvised with a plastic bag collecting trash which stayed in the room the whole time... Also, the second day of my stay I left some food wrapped in a plastic bag in the fridge, and the 5th day it got legs and disappeared. I asked on the reception to check who checked out that morning, because they literally took everything from the fridge upon leaving and the reaction was "oh well what can you do".. Bare in mind, there are cameras everywhere in public areas including the kitchen, so it´s not the stollen food that bothered me, but this nonchalant attitude. What would have happened if something of a bigger value vanished.. All in all, this didn´t spoil my holidays or impression, but will pay more attention to this the next time.

    I stayed for 11 days in Moraga de poniente and I can say I had a very comfortable stay. I booked a double room since I was staying longer and wanted to have the freedom and comfort to enter and exit my room when I want. The room was overall clean, however some surfaces were dusty like the table on the balcony, the table inside the room, but overall it´s satisfying. The sheets are clean, pillows and covers as well. Another perk was having the shared bathroom just across the room and I enjoyed sitting on the balcony in the evenings. Considering the fluctuation of guests, the bathroom was very clean for a hostel. It has a small closed in terrace near the kitchen, as well as a rooftop deck great for dinner or a drink. It is just a 5 min. walk from the El Palo beach with many restaurants. The supermarket, pharmacy, kiosk, bus station are no more than 100 m away and the connection to the Malaga center is very good, approx. 15-20 min. by bus depending on the traffic. The staff was kind enough to stay even a bit longer on the day of my check-out, since I had my suitcase and stuff inside until the afternoon, which I´m very grateful for. I can definitely recommend it and I will be visiting again most probably next year :)

    Our stay at the hostel was generally good. The location is excellent — close to the beach and local shops. The place was clean and the staff were friendly. However, it was quite noisy at times because the doors were not soundproof (not PVC), and we could hear noise from the hall and other rooms easily. If they improve the sound insulation, it would be a much more comfortable stay.

    Not much!

    Having never stayed in a hostel before I didnt have much to compare to but regardless this place was welcoming, and incredibly clean. The beds (in the twin) room were very comfortable I've stayed in worse hotels! Although along the coast a bit the transport links via the bus routes were excellent to the city and beyond, but also gave us quick access to the local beaches.

    By the photo of their roof I was convinced it was a seafront location, which was the very reason why I booked this place. There was quite a bit of walk to the beach. The location was still alright, I just don't like to be misled by photos taken at beneficial angles. Toilets were small. Self check-in, which you must do online despite the receptionist being at the desk, is irritating (the receptionist was nice, though!)

    Clean place with lovely two patios, spacious bright kitchen, nice receptionist and volunteer. I loved that there were real, very pretty plants in the place. Beds had lockers with the padlocks already, privacy curtains, USB port and reading light - very handy.

    I do like everything

    The place is very clean, there is a good bathroom with hot water, and there is a good kitchen where you can cook for yourself instead of eating out if you don't feel like it. There is also Wi-Fi. The place is very close to the sea, although it is a bit far from the city center, but there is a bus for only 1.50 €. There is also a lock for each drawer, so you can put your things in the room without worrying when you go out.

    Nice location out of downtown. Relatively quiet. Interesting neighborhood. Building pleasant with large roof terrace and a few smaller patios. Beds were superb with nicest bed clothes I have experienced and curtains, lights, electrical outlet. Hostel staff "sparkplug" Johnny took good care of me. Clean premises.
