Guest Reviews
- Carina (8/5): Ótima localização, ambiente amigável, bom café da manhã. - Gostei do ambiente propício para fazer novas amizades, localização, e café da manhã Não gostei do fato de não poder usar o varal para estender a toalha, por ser uma cidade praiana, faltou um pouco mais de estrutura nesse sentido. E também o fato de não ter mt espaço onde colocar as toalhas, então ficou úmida. Porque não pode colocar nas varandas, e não ter varal, deviam ter alguma opção onde poder pendurar as coisas
- Lakhal (1/5): -
- Mary1492 (10/5): - Complimentary tea & coffee!!
Breakfast for €5
Laundry washed and folded beautifully€10!!

- Mary1492 (10/5): Good vibe at lights hostel! - Free tea & coffee!
This hostel has a good vibe nice terrace with free Sangria @7:30!! Leaving.

- FEGUVIRO (9/5): "¡TODO BIEN, TODO BIEN, TODO BIEN!" - El desayuno fué espectacular... Huevos, tocinera, tostadas, café, leche, granadas, frutas y más y más y más. Alguien de la recepción me habló mal porque bajé a desayunar sin zapatos 👞 y sin medias. Es un Hostel para viajeros de morral y carriolas... Me ha debido ofrecer unas chanclas prestadas.
- apecena (7/5): - Me encantó la ubicación del hostel, súper céntrico. En general muy bien las instalaciones No me pareció lo suficientemente completo el desayuno, por ser que cobraran 5 euros, podría haber sido mejor
- Dmytro (10/5): - Саодобався персонал. Не сподобалося ліжко
- David (10/5): I had a great time, met some cool people, and really enjoyed my time in Malaga. - This hostel did a great job! All the staff I interacted with were very friendly. They had a lot of activities and communicated how to participate well. The food at the family dinner was delicious. The location was excellent for exploring Malaga and also pretty close to the beach. Everything was clean and well run. I cannot recommend the lights highly enough. Everything met or exceeded my expectations.
- Tomáš K. (10/5): Velká spokojenost - určitě se v budoucnu ubytuji znovu :) - Ubytování se nachází přímo v centru, což znamená, že všechny nejdůležitější atrakce a zajímavé podniky máte přímo na dosah ruky. Postele jsou dostatečně velké a matrace příjemné (tedy aspoň pro mě osobně). Každá postel má svou "lampičku" a mini poličku včetně několika zásuvek. Chválím i relativně velký úložný prostor pod postelí, který je uzamykatelný (ať už vlastním visacím zámkem, nebo tím, který si můžete půjčit na recepci). Stejně tak chválím i možnost zapůjčení klíčů od malého "trezoru" na nejcennější věci ve 3. patře na chodbě. Velmi se mi líbilo, že recepce je otevřena 24 hodin denně, díky čemuž můžete v podstatě na hostel dorazit skoro kdykoliv a stejně tak se i na cokoliv zeptat. Nadchla mě možnost každodenní levné snídaně formou jednoduchého malého bufetu v ceně 5 euro, stejně tak i možnost večeře podobným konceptem. Nejvíce chválím dostupné aktivity, které každý den hostel (a ostatní hostely v okolí) nabízejí - výlety, beach volleyball, procházky po městě, free sangria na terase a další aktivity díky kterým se můžete vždy socializovat a poznávat nové lidi, pokud o to stojíte. :) Chválím i úklid, který funguje každý den a také zapůjčení ručníku recepcí. Chtělo by to malinko více odkládacího prostoru ve sprchách a na toaletách např. malý stolek. Nejedná se ovšem o nic zásadního. Malý tip pro cestovatele, kteří míří do hostelu poprvé v životě - určitě doporučuji špunty do uší na spaní - hotel je přímo v centru, tudíž se dá očekávat velký hluk i přes zavřené balkonové dveře a samozřejmě sdílíte pokoj s více hosty a jejich hlučnost a čas, ve kterém se v pokoji budou aktivně pohybovat, se nedá předem odhadnout. :)
- LuisRivera (9/5): Super freundlich und echt günstig :) - Die Lage war hervorragend, neben den Fußgängerzonen im Zentrum, mit Bus- und U-Bahn Haltestellen in der Nähe und vielen Geschäften. Frühstück und Abendessen waren sehr Lecker und preislich unschlagbar! Das Badezimmer war ein bisschen klein und das Schlafzimmer eher dunkel. Ich denke das ist eher eine kulturelle Sache, aber das Frühstück und das Abendessen waren sehr spät serviert. Dara muss man sich in Spanien gewöhnen.
- Anna (10/5): - I had a great stay at this hostel in Málaga. The staff at the reception were extremely friendly and helpful from the first moment. They were always happy to answer any questions and even lent me a charger when I needed one, which I really appreciated.
I also liked that free tea and coffee were available for all guests — a small detail that made the stay even more comfortable.
The location is excellent, right next to Mercado Mirador in the heart of Málaga’s old town. It’s very close to the bus station and also within walking distance of the beach.
Overall, this is one of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed in. Very professional, welcoming, and convenient. I highly recommend it.
- Inomzhon (9/5): - best location Shower rooms could have a shampoo, budget travellers cant take shampoo everywhere because of airlines regulations,
- Zakaria (10/5): -
- Florin (10/5): -
- Mohammed (1/5): -
- Hassan (8/5): - Bon emplacement et endroit propre. Le confort pourrait être amélioré.
- Dobric (10/5): -
- Alexandra (9/5): Great location, kind staff - Location, staff, everything was clean. I also liked the fact that they had instructions to the airport - facilitating guests. I stayed for only a few hours, so I can’t tell much. Overall, for a hostel, it is very good.
- Alberto (10/5): -
- Jay sheikh (10/5): Best hostel I ever stayed - The 5 euro dinner that brings all hostel together
The free sangria that also brings people together .. great volunteers
Probably the best hostel I ever stayed in
Free coffee and tea . This hostel is managed by some great minds Pillows are not comfortable

- Ieva (9/5): -
- AMINE (1/5): - Rien Communication et flexibilité
- Abdou (7/5): Just a good location no more than that. - The location is good. The people who works there “as volunteers” are so nice respectful and friendly but a man who works at the reception. A gentleman who works there as a receptionist is very rude and should work on his attitude and politeness towards male clients knowing that his energy completely changes every-time a woman is in front of his desk. I know what I am talking about Ive been there for 5 days.
- Geraldine (10/5): - Increíble la atención de la recepción en todos los horarios, fue espectacular ya que te orientan en todos los aspectos, recomiendo los desayunos que sirven en el lugar por 5 euros y también recomiendo las cenas que se hacen en la terraza exquisito el plato por cinco euros
- Tim (10/5): -
- Karine (8/5): Très bien pour quelques nuits ! - Chambres confortables, accueil sympa, rooftop et sangria offerte; très bien placé.
Repas et petits déjeuners possibles. Les parties communes sont assez petites, les douches pas toujours bien propres.
- Coretti (10/5): Magico - La struttura molto pulita e organizzata nel migliore dei modi. Lo staff davvero accogliente e pronto a risolvere ogni problema . Matias mi ha accolta in maniera eccellente ! Sono stata benissimo , bellissimi ospiti ! Insomma si respirano proprio delle good vibes ! Consiglio vivamente se si va a Malaga ! Posizione ultra top !

- sandrine (9/5): -
- Doğa Gülsu (7/5): Genel olarak güzeldi, şans verilebilir - Her gün güzelce temizleniyor. Konumu güzel, çoğu yere yakın. Giriş saatinden önce ve çıkış saatinden sonra resepsiyona eşyalarınızı bırakmanıza izin veriyorlar. Çalışanlar cana yakın. Hasta olduğumu söyledikten sonra beni odaya erken aldılar, sağ olsunlar. Kadınlara özel odalarda erkek personelin rahatça girip çıkmasını birazcık garipsedim, kapıyı çalıp giriyor, kendisi saygılı ve samimi biri, bu konuda sıkıntı yok ama kişisel olarak tercihim kadın personelden yana. Banyonun temizlenmesi güzel ama oda arkadaşlarınız temiz tutmadığı sürece hiçbir işe yaramıyor :( bu konuda hostelin suçu yok, tamamen şans işi… Seçmem için üç yatak gösterdiler, sağ olsunlar ama üçü de ranzanın üst kısmıydı :((( inip çıkmak benim için zordu… Bence havlu ve kilidin paralı olması hoş değil… Ben kilit almadım, hiçbir şeyim çalınmadı (çok şükür) ama insan tedirgin oluyor.
- Bernier (10/5): - Comme d'habitude une équipe au top.. Et une super ambiance avec beaucoup de rencontres. Merci à vous

- Mohammed Salim (8/5): -
- Max (10/5): Great stay in Malaga - Loved this hostel. Very social, loved the breakfast and family dinner. The staff was super helpful and kind, Silja was great. The location of the hostel is also perfect, with everything nearby but it isn't too loud. Can recommend for sure! The dorms were alright. Beds were not the best and the lockers were not too big. The shower area is also a bit dated. However, nothing to worry about as it is all cleaned very regularly and well.

- Manuel Ignacio (9/5): -
- Elías (10/5): -

Tom and Andrea were super nice and helpful, they make you feel very welcome. The room was quiet and the beds very comfortable. The breakfast was definitely worth it, lots of good options. If in Malaga, check it out you will be delighted! It’s right in old downtown with walking distance from main attractions. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
