The best hostel! Amazing staff who provide free dinners and sangria each night. The vibe at the hostel was just what I needed during my stay in malaga. Pub crawl each evening which is a nice way to get to know other travellers

All was great, even better than expected.

Pros: Everything !
Cons: Cannot think of anything ...
Location: Location great (see above). Nearby : visit of the cathedral, the Picasso Museum and the Thyssen museum, walk along the yachthing port also nearby.
Very nice personnel and hostel super well maintained. Situation : easy access by train coming from the airport (end of the train line) and in the middle of the center of the city. Nice roof top supper if you want to participate. Cosy lounges. Am ready to go back !
