I stayed at Casa Caracol this past Spring as a last stop in Andalucia after taking the train to…read moreMadrid and leaving Spain. This was a great last stop. The hostel is very friendly and intimate. Other hostels I've stayed at can feel more like hotels, but this resembles a bed and breakfast. The common room is used by many guests, as is the kitchen, creating a sense of community. The beds were comfortable, bathroom was clean, and the location was great. A short walk from the train station, shaded by buildings around it, and close to the city hall square. I would stay again if I came back!

We loved this place and even after a few days we felt like part of the furniture. Place really reminded me of the way chilled but friendly beach hostels were in Australia in the early 2000's.

Wonderful new find in the centre of Malaga. Right opposite the central market and close to the…read morestation. It's part of a really good hostel which offers cheap dinners and breakfasts and Happy Hour drinks on the roof terrace. For us older folk the Suites provide lovely well designed rooms, some with balconies, and lovely bathrooms. How quiet they are depends on the other guests and at time of writing there's a very noisy group through the wall. That said the price is very good value for the quality of the room and is a very good option for a comfortable and cheap place to stay in Malaga.

I stayed there for two nights to discover Malaga (booked via Expedia). I had a bed in a bedroom for…read more8 People (mixed), breakfast included. It's easy to get to the Hostel - bus stop and train station (to the airport) are nearby. The People at the reception were very friendly and gave me some good tipps what to visit in Malaga... The bedroom is really small, but functional, the only thing I missed was a cupboard (you can put your things into the drawer under the bed) and there is no place to put your suitcase. The aircondition in the rooms is also great (and useful during the hot summer in spain). The whole hostel has free wifi, which I used a lot, a kitchen (with fridges where you can put your food) and there are some events every day (for example 'tapas tour', free sangria in the evening, and you can also book dinner...). The breakfast was also ok for the price: coffee, juices, cornflakes & cereals, toast with margarine, nutella and jam... There are toilets (mixed use) on every floor and a seperate bathroom for men and women on the 2nd and 3rd floor. The rooftop-terrace is the highlight in my opinion (nice shadowy places, bar, and you can smoke there...). If I go back to Malaga sometime I would stay there again!

I've given this a 'A-OK' in that it suited its purpose. I have experienced better but a plush…read morehotel was not what was on order for this holiday. The twin room I had provided what I needed for my stay. A bed to sleep in and a shower room to get clean in. It came equipped with fridge and usual kettle, etc to make refreshments, clean towels, etc. Unfortunately the blackout blind didn't work. Luckily I needed to wake at sunrise anyway so it didn't bother me too much. However, if this was not the case there might have been some frustration. That being said, because I didn't really need it, I didn't flag this to the hotel for them to sort in any case. My room was next to one other with our own little balcony area with seating and table provided. I stayed just prior to 'season' starting so there was a lot of activity around with getting the hotel sorted. There is a large pool area with a bar. This space gets prime sun but with very little shade so be warned! In the main building, there is also a rooftop bar with the double bed sun loungers available along with a few other seating spaces. Again, prime spot for sun so be sure to have your sun lotion/block to hand. The room was cleaned daily as expected. It was air conditioned (although I only really used it for heat in the evenings when it got chilly) but, this worked fine for the room. Adequate wardrobe and drawer space. The shower room as a little snug for accessory space with all the lotions and potions and think this might have been a struggle for 2 people to accommodate but, as I said, it was fine. I wasn't spending a lot of time in the room so it suited the purpose of a comfy space to sleep. A short walk away are a few supermarkets, restaurants and, importantly, the beach which took me around 15 mins to walk and it is a pleasant walk to get there. Free wifi is available although I seemed to get kicked off on regular intervals but enough for a quick check in on outside life. All in all, I thought this was a nice enough place to stay and the amenities around meant you didn't really need much more if you are coming to relax. It is a little remote from the busy of town but I believe there are local buses which can take you in to the different areas.

We got a 5 person room with a private bathroom. We were pleasantly surprised to find that our room actually had private bathrooms for both men and women, and that made the whole sharing-a-restroom necessity much easier and more convenient. Everything was very clean, the beds were soft and comfy, and the bathrooms had showers with hot water (surprisingly not a given in some hostels). The location is quite easy to find (even at 3 in the morning), the receptionist was incredibly welcoming and helpful, and there is an underground parking garage right in front of the building. Even though we only stayed at this hostel for a few hours, it was actually a very nice experience. I would definitely recommend this place if you're traveling through Spain and need a place to crash for a night.
