We loved the location. However, the space was incredibly small. The logistics to get to the second floor was complicated, I have knee difficulties and the multiple stairs are a problem but the elevator does not stop on the second floor unless you have a key which only the employees have. The street noise was incredible, kept us up the entire night, our first night. Nicely decorated and friendly staff, but I would not stay here again.

Overall it was a good experience and the beds are very comfortable, but the outside noise made it almost impossible to sleep. Even with the windows closed, we hard ally/street noise till around 4 in the morning and it started again at 6.

ㅠㅠ
위치가 나쁘진않았어요 조식은 다른건물로 가야한다고해서 귀찮아서 안먹었음.. 4인실썼는데 캐리어 한번 펴보는것도 서로 눈치보일정도로 너어무 좁았습니다 화장실이 분리된건좋았어요 옆방들간 방음은 잘됐지만 바깥창문의 방음은 아쉬웠어요ㅠㅠ 공항 셔틀도 무료인줄알았는데 그냥 택시만 잡아준거.. 다음에 혹시나 또 말라가 가게된다면 이돈으로 다른숙소 잘찾아서 혼자 편하게 잘랍니다ㅠ

운치있는 호텔
골목길이 둥근 돌로 되어 있어 캐리어 끌고 다니기 조금 불편한 거 말고는 알바이신지구 안에있어 운치도 있고 욕실이 별도로 되어 있어 좋았음... 다니기도 편하고 슈퍼, 누에보 광장 가깝고 좋았음...

The Hostel was decent clean. The price-accomodation value ratio was very good. The location was really central and easx to aproach. Friendly people and the terrace a wonderful place to have a drink in the afternoon.

Horrible noise from street and bar upstairs. Small french balcony door let in lots of cold air. Room was very small. Would not stay again, or recommend to anyone. Location was right in the center that was good.

Billig og godt
Valg af hotel var at det skulle være tæt på centrum og det var det. Sengen god og det fælles badeværelse til 4 værelser, var nyt, pænt og rent. Det samme hotel vil blive valgt igen, ligger 200 m fra centrum,i den gamle bydel, tæt på mange ting, kan anbefales.
