A very kind and welcoming family host with personalized hospitality. Very clean room, perfect location close to all attractions, and would always set this property as my first choice.
Everything was perfect.

Excellent off road parking, plenty of communication by WhatsApp on the days leading up to stay, welcoming staff, good breakfast, easy walk into downtown Marbella. Basically all good for us.
There was nothing that caused us concern.

Super friendly and helpful staff. Our flight was late but Aniria organised everything so that we could check-in later. Perfect breakfast, some of fruits are picked from their backyard garden.

It's a good location, the beach is across the street and the city center is 40mins away BY FOOT
The balcony doors don't lock. If you want to check in after 21:00 it's going to be a bit tricky, you need to arrange things on the chat

Absolutely fantastic hosts! The hostel is super cozy, with spacious and comfortable rooms. I started thinking about returning there at some point in the near future just when I arrived. The town also has a lot of offer.

Big rooms, nice views, and so close to the beach.
Room cleans started around 8:30/9 everyday, so no chance of a lay in. If you want your room refreshed you have to leave by 10:30, the official time is 11 but you will have staff knocking on your door attempting to come in if you are not out before then. Bedsheet changes are on specific days, we did not realise this and chose on that day not to let them in as we wanted to leave later, we were then made to feel like dirty people bc we’d have spend another night on the same sheets.

An old-style, family owned and run Hostal. Great value/money. It is 5 mins from the beach, and if you have a car - very well situated, just next to the Marbella sign. The staff - who are family members - are very kind and helpful. While situated on the main road to/from Marbella, my room faced the back and was peaceful (+ balcony).
A/C was quite old, and the location is a bit far from the center. Though very well connected with buses.

We had a lovely holiday here. Excellent location, 5 minutes from the beach 15 minutes to the main town. Very easy to navigate too and from. Hosts very friendly and welcoming. Hot water and water pressure are great. Brilliant for a budget getaway.
Beds are quite uncomfortable, could feel the springs in them.

Really nice location, in front of one of the best beaches of Marbella (clean and empty) , great host and staff , you sometimes get to meet 2 lovely cats and free parking at the venue
One thing missing was a hair dryer, which is not a hard need but would be nice to have them , especially for backpackers

Very good value accommodation. The room was basic but perfect, with very comfy beds and a nice quiet location. The microwave and fridge were a real bonus. We had breakfast which was good value too. It's on the outskirts of town but very close to the walkway along the front.
