The rooms are simple but well appointed and clean. Very comfortable beds. A great location in El Palo that's close to the shops and restaurants as well as the beach. Reception hours are fairly short on the weekend but if you need to check in out of those hours it's incredibly simple.

This was our first time staying in a place like this. The location was good and everything was clean. The best part is that we didn’t see the staff much, as the lobby was closed most of the time. Unfortunately, when we did interact with them, they were not friendly—actually quite the opposite. Staff working in hospitality should be welcoming and approachable, which wasn’t the case here...

Basic good value family-run hotel

Basic but good value for money. Room perfectly ok - had twin for single occupancy. Very quiet at night too, at least until the nearby gym got going! Friendly and helpful staff (eg let us print our boarding passes out on their computer). However, the reception is not manned 24/7. It's about 3 miles (5km) from the centre of Malaga eastwards along the coast, but there's a very good, cheap and frequent bus service (3, 11, N1); takes about 20 mins and runs 24/7.
