This hotel is located about a 15-minute walk from Malaga Station. It was quite difficult to book because it's one of the cheapest options among hotels in the area, but the value for money was definitely worth it. For convenience, I prefer the beds that are on the lower level. There were days I used the upper bunk due to a large suitcase, and it was great that the space upstairs was usable. However, having to climb up and down the ladder was a bit inconvenient. If I had less luggage, I would have opted for the lower bunk. Since Europe can be expensive, having breakfast included is a big plus. They offer sandwiches, yogurt, croissants, and juice, which was great because I didn't have to eat at a designated time. The coffee from the machine is free and unlimited. There's a Carrefour supermarket right next to the hostel, which was very convenient. Even though the room was small, the 24-hour air conditioning kept it very comfortable. Plus, there was a coin-operated laundry machine, which was handy. Even when the hostel was fully booked, the bathrooms weren't crowded, which was a pleasant surprise. Most of the guests were adults, so it was generally quiet. It's in a very safe neighborhood, and there's a subway station right in front of the hostel, but I didn't need to use it much as the tourist attractions are quite close. The beach is also within walking distance. I highly recommend it due to its proximity to the train station and bus terminal.

The location is super convenient, right in the center of Malaga, making it easy to get around. They also have a dedicated workspace, which was really handy for getting some work done. And the staff? Incredibly friendly!

The room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was just okay. The surrounding area was nothing special, and it was a bit noisy due to its proximity to the airport. Getting around wasn't very convenient; you'll need to take a taxi.

The landlord’s wife is very cute and very disciplined, not the same as the Spaniards I remember haha. I arrived in the morning in malaga and asked me to store my luggage in advance. After the check-in time arrived, my luggage was dragged into my room on the 2nd floor by a small woman. She really took care of this three-story inn. My house is so beautiful. It is decorated in a hotel. In addition to the central air conditioner, there is a fan. The small balcony can see the street view. The bathroom public bath must pay attention to the time. The only downside is that the street light in my room is right by the window when I sleep at night, and the curtains can't cover the light. I sleep with this warm light all night. Other rooms don't seem to have this problem. When you check in, pay attention to the big yard next to it is a hospital, it looks like an inn, don't go wrong!

+++ Convenient location near Málaga Airport +++ Very friendly and welcoming staff +++ Free on-site parking --- Persistent and terrible sewer smell in the room that did not improve even with ventilation --- Room located next to the elevator, which produced a noticeable metallic “tack” sound throughout the night --- Limited sleep quality due to continuous elevator activity Overall the hotel offers excellent convenience and kind service, but the noise and odor issues significantly affected the comfort of our stay.

All in all i would recommend however the room itself is very narrow. Services that are provided are good. There is a washing machine and dryer and a microwave and fridge. For two people however the room/ bed  is very small, especially when one is not small in size. For a short visit of 3-5 days i would recommend, but any longer and you would have to bring your own cleaning supplies since they clean every 4 days. The location is nice but without a rental car you need to walk a bit far in order to reach a bus station or the train station about 8-15 minute walk. It doesn’t sound far but if you return after a long day of walking in the city it is quite far.

It was my first time staying in a capsule, and I must admit I was a bit apprehensive, but the experience was excellent. The capsules had everything one could need, and the shared bathrooms were very clean and well-stocked with all the necessary amenities. The hotel itself felt very futuristic, with digital faucets and automatic toilets. I highly recommend it!

Clean and tidy, close to the train station. Free parking right outside. There are restaurants nearby, including Japanese cuisine. It's a pleasant 20-minute walk to the cathedral, with nice scenery along the way. The room is small and compact, making good use of the space, suitable for a short stay. The American-style management is a bit cold, but there are no unpleasant surprises.
