  Great place to stay

  30 Mar 2025

  Having never previously stayed in a hostel before I booked this place due to the price and other reviews but still wasn't sure what to expect. I can honestly say this place has given me the confidence to book a hostel again and If I come back to the area I will certainly book here a second time.The whole place is very clean and well maintained. The owner is available for the majority of every day to ensure guests have what they need, and there are pleanty of areas to relax. As a bonus everything you'd need is within a short walking distance including a supermarket and a beach. Definitely recommend.

  Lovely staff, great property. Must go if you want chill vibes, near beach and a nice clean hostel. Definitely the best dorms I have been in cleanliness wise. It's an older building which I love as it's more traditional and well ventilated. Sad to leave!

  Lot of noise

  18 Nov 2019

  Dirty room, unfriendly staff, so much noise you cannot sleep during the night. Beds are unconfortable and sheets with stains, also the shower was not clean. No service minded staff, breakfast with old bread and coffe not drinkable almost. Never ever go here!!!! calberto54, Propietario at La Moraga de Poniente-Malaga Hostel, responded to this review Thanks Biba for your fake comment.You booked with us through a well-known website on Wednesday, October 23, 2019 for a double room stay from November 14 to 17, 2019 with reservation number 3208786736. Subsequently, three days before your arrival, you canceled your reservation . This makes your comment, in addition to false is malicious. You have never stayed with us, you have not slept in our establishment, you have not had our coffee, you do not know if our sheets are clean or not in the same way that you do not know the level of cleanliness of our establishment. You have only worried about repeating some comments from other clients like a monkey.We invite you to check on the website where you made the reservation, which you surely did when you made your reservation, that precisely the aspects that our guests value best is the cleanliness of our facilities and the treatment of our staff.That said, we will continue working to improve our facilities to make our guests' stay more comfortable.Greetings and we wish you to be treated with greater respect than you show towards others.

  Would not stay here again

  25 Aug 2019

  I am newer to hostels, but I have stayed in several and have a general idea of what to expect. Communication wise, they were excellent. They asked about the time I was to check in. When I responded that it was what they considered "after hours", they made arrangements for me to have keys ready and available for me to enter the building and my room with no issues, They were easy to get in touch with after hours with problems, as I arrived and my room had not been cleaned (dirty linens, half empty water bottle, dirty towel on the floor, hair on the pillows, etc. They apologized profusely, and gave me free breakfast for my stay. However that was only available after 8am everyday and consisted of small pastries and cereal.Facilities were ok. The internet functioned, as did the AC in my room. There was a washing machine that was available, and worked well. There was also a fridge and freezer that travelers could keep items in. The only thing is the kitchen (which also housed the washing machine) was only open after 8am, so if you needed to be somewhere before then, you were out of luck, as the room was locked. There was supposed to be a desk and reading lamp in my room, neither of which was present. Also, note, that there are only 2 bathrooms. One for men on the 3rd floor and one for women on the 2nd floor. So, I ended up staying on a floor with a bathroom I couldn't use and had to go to a different floor every time I needed something in the bathroom-- not too convenient.Cleanliness: ignoring the room being dirty at check- in, the hostel didn't seem to clean to me. Im not sure how often they clean, but it didn't appear to be a daily thing- especially the bathroom.All in all, I would not recommend this place for anyone unless there were no options or unless staying near the beach was mandatory (<5minute walk). calberto54, Propietario at La Moraga de Poniente-Malaga Hostel, responded to this review Thank you for your comment.
