Check-in online disaster

On line check in a disaster and many guests hah difficulty and gave up. There should be a person present to allow people of all ages to check in outside the two hours from 2pm to 4 pm. The on-line app was over complicated and not fit for purpose. It will. stop people from booking the hostel again

Great location for sight seeing, can be a little noisy in the mornings. Rooms basic but nice and clean. Time of year no receptionist so checking in a little frustrating. Buffet breakfast adequate if you get up before it runs out. Most staff very nice and helpful

Great location, nice enough room, but no front desk open for check in means it wasn't possible to get into the building without a cellphone with a SIM card for Spain. Also, a foul sewage stench from plumbing in the bathroom, and no front desk to request help from that problem.

Good hostal - clean and central, friendly helpful staff. Just a few minor things- no bin in the room (only a tiny one in the bathroom), nothing to hang towels on in the bathroom, a few hooks on the back of the door would help! No full length mirror which is annoying when you’re on holiday and want to see your outfits!

The location is great, with a nice street and sea view, although it is quite noisy. Jack hammer was working across the street most of the day. The room would be OK if not for a terrible stench coming from the sewer in the bathroom, so you have to keep the door to the bathroom shut and the balcony door open not to feel it. The furniture is shabby, the included breakfast is very primitive. This was the worst of the 6 hotels we stayed in during our Spanish vacation this year.

The hotel is well located and reasonably priced. It offers rooms with balcony or patio but our balcony and others look out over other internally facing balconies. We had a safe but no fridge or drinks facilities. The promised discount for guests having dinner was not applied, the meal was average quality but expensive and breakfast was uninspiring and self service. This was a disappointing holiday venue rescued only by it’s location.

This hotel was in the most beautiful location in the main square in Nerja. Our room had the most amazing view across the square to the sea . The room was very tired and needed some updating.

Excellent value for location.

Absolutely fantastic location! The room was basic but very clean. The beds were extremely comfortable, with nice bed linen. The bathroom, however was grubby, there were also light bulbs that didn’t work. Credit to them though, they did fix the light and improve the bathroom cleanliness when we addressed the issue with them. Breakfast was basic, but fresh and plentiful. We would definitely stay there again. People need to be mindful that this property is classed as a hostel…not a luxury hotel. As such embrace the superb location and good value for money accommodation.
