BLUESEA Costa Serena

The hotel is inexpensive and so you get what you pay for. It was fine for one night. Breakfast was not good though, so don't bother with that. Also there is no access to an iron or ironing board, so take your own travel iron. Otherwise it is a standard 3 star and the rooms are OK but a bit dated. Good location and very close to the train station which is very handy.

For a cheap hotel it wasn’t the absolute worst hotel I’ve stayed at but it was pretty close. The bed was two twin beds pushed together but they slid apart with little to no effort so I found myself falling between them countless times throughout the night. Plus on top of that the AC didn’t work at all.

Lovely location nice a quit nice big room and bathroom food was ok good be better lovely pool with outside bar shame about the sunbeds was very hard as had no cushion so we went to the beach instead as more comfortable shame because it would of been nice to relax around the pool

Rooms are smaller than photos. I even hit one of my arms with bathroom knob on the first night. All foods are buffet style; no a la carte items, which is frustrating when you do not like the food prepared. Besides that, staff was very nice and facilities look nice and clean. I was able to relax and rest most nights :-) Room keys activate AC and lights which is ok but AC sometimes does not pick up fast cool temperatures thst are pre-set

I liked balcony size and pool. We were lucky to get room with triple balcony size. We didn't like 2 things: 1. Dishes weren't clean enough. Kitchen staff probably put them in the machine and that's it. Nobody was checking dishes and cutlery after coming out from machine. I found lipstick on cup, vegetables on fork... 2. Cesspool smell in bathroom. (Not always, only 20% of time). No matter how much air freshener charwoman used, she couldn't cover the fact, that problem is somewhere in pipes or ventilation. We didn't ask for other room, we didn't want to loose big balcony. Pipes and ventilation are same for whole building anyway.

Great place where the local Spanish people are happy to stay st for some sun. The staff are super friendly. Careful that the door key downs y become near your smart phone or it may interfere with the contactless tech used. 9:15-10am is the busiest period for breakfast.

close to the train station, close to the beach, generally nice place

Positive: Royal Costa was very clean and the room was very comfortable. The breakfast was good and plenty. It is very close to the Los Alamos train station which makes it very attractive because you can be in the centre of Malaga in 20-25 minutes and in 5-8 minutes at the airport. Also you can be in he attractive Torremolinos beach area in 10 minutes. Staff wee very helpful and really polite. From the room, I had a very nice view of the sea, which was very relaxing Negative:There were no plugs in the room and I had to use the plug of the TV; actually to take out the cable of the TV and use it to charge my phone and the PC. Another think which I consider it UNACCEPTABLE, and to be honest without any logic and I haven't seen it anywhere else, is the fact that, in order to open the air conditioning you have to call the reception and ask the technician to come with the control of the air conditioner to put it to work, otherwise you will die from heat, since Malaga is a hot place in Spain, since it is located in the south part of Spain

I booked this hotel on Expedia - I put the wrong date and I just wanted them to switch the reservation to the proper date- I wasn’t canceling my reservation and they refused to give me a refund. Boooo hisss
