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.

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.

Cheap and cheerful hostel.

Chinitas urban hostel was in a great location. Close to all amenities. The front house staff were great, very knowledgeable about the area and with a good understanding of English. The hostel was also very clean. My only complaint would be that the four bed dorm was tiny, I had to unpack on the floor as there was very little space. You must remember though that the price of staying here is very cheap so I do not think it is fair complaining.

Odeurs d'alcool et de tabac froid dans les couloirs au réveil. Bref à éviter !

In the Heart of Historic Malaga

I stayed one night in Chinitas but found it to be a great experience at a backpacker's level. The staff was friendly and helpful, the room was clean and secure, the hostel itself was very secure, and the bathroom was clean and water was hot. I stayed in a four-bed, mixed dorm. The area is popular and therefore can be noisy in the evening until late but the hostel provides free ear plugs. The hostel is very well situated: a 5-10 min. walk from the airport Linea A bus (Passe del Parque - or also called the Marina stop - the second to the last), is inside the historic center, near the Cathedral, Roman Theatre and AlCazba Fort as well as the night scene. The rooftop terrace provided a nice view of the Cathedral. Breakfast (by coupon) was simple toast and coffee in the restaurant next door but was very welcome. I would stay there again.
