Защо хората я обичат
- Unbeatable location right on Calle Comedias
- Hotel-grade cleanliness and ensuite bathrooms in every room
- Stylish, modern design that feels more 'poshtel' than backpacker dive
Бързо резюме: It looks like a design hotel, but the street noise and lack of bunk curtains will remind you it's still a hostel.
Преглеждано от @soniaseestheworld: I was shocked by how upscale this place felt. The lobby is full of fresh flowers, and the atrium brings in so much light. It’s the perfect spot if you want to save money but still stay somewhere stylish and social. Definitely my go-to in Málaga now.

Reality check
The 'soundproof' windows can't fully block the party outside on weekends, and the lack of curtains in dorms kills the privacy vibe.
- You prioritize a private, clean bathroom over social vibes
- You want to walk to the Picasso Museum in 3 minutes
- You appreciate high-pressure rainfall showers

Често задавани въпроси и скрити съвети
Всичко, което наистина трябва да знаеш, преди да резервираш.
Is it a party hostel?
No. It has a bar and pool table, but the vibe is more 'chill workspace' than 'tequila shots'.
Do the bunk beds have curtains?
No. This is the most common complaint. Bring an eye mask.
Is there a kitchen?
Yes, there is a shared kitchen, but it's fairly small and better for light meals than full cooking.
How far is the beach?
Malagueta Beach is a pleasant 15-20 minute walk through the park.
Is it safe?
Yes, very. Key card access is required for the front door, elevator, and rooms. 24/7 reception.
Are towels included?
Only in private rooms. Dorm guests must rent them (~€2.50) or bring their own.

The 'fingerprint' access mentioned in old reviews has been replaced by standard key cards.

There is a secret 'Andalusian Patio' inside that is perfect for quiet reading.

Don't pay for the hotel breakfast; 'La Recova' nearby offers a traditional farmer's breakfast for less.
5 неща, които трябва да знаете преди да отидете
💡The AC automatically shuts off when you open the balcony door (and sometimes struggles to restart).
💡The 'suites' are just nice hotel rooms; don't expect a living room unless you book the specific family ones.
💡The wifi in the corner rooms can be spotty compared to the common areas.
💡You have to buzz to get in the front door every single time, even with a key card (sometimes).
💡The shower pressure is surprisingly strong for a hostel—better than many 4-star hotels.
