  • The staff was really nice and helpful, speaking perfect english. The location was right in the city center; easy to find. Unfortunately cockroaches are running up and down in the kitchen which is quite annoying.

  • The hostel is located a short walk from the train station and easy to find. The staff was friendly, though some of them didn't speak English very well. The rooms were clean, same as the showers and toilets. The only minuses would be that the airconditioning was only turned on for the night and the kitchen was locked overnight, so no midnight snacks or cold drinks then. I would recommend this hostel to anyone. The organised pub crawl is also worth attending )

  • The location is ideal to come and go from Malaga, whether to/from the beaches, the bus/train stations or the airport. The rooms lack a bit of comfort : especially the mattresses. Also, you will look in vain for a place where to hang your beach towel so it can dry...

  • The hostel was fine. It was a little hard to find, but that's not the hostel's fault, its just that Malaga's street names change every time there's a little bend in the road. There were cute little restaurants nearby, and the staff was really nice. The restroom and shower were sparkling clean. The only problem was the girl on the bunk above me brought a guy back at 2 am, and they proceeded to...you know. Loudly. In an 8-bunk dorm room. Again, not the hostel's fault. I was there in June 2012.

  • We spent five nights in Pink House. When we arrived, a bottle of champaigne welcomed us on the bedside table which was the first sign of the kindness of the staff. The hostel is centrally located in 25 minutes walk to Malagueta beach. Cleaning lady came every day and the common kitchen was also clean and fully equipped. Calm place to stay and there is a lovely turkish restaurant across the bridge. We really enjoyed our stay here. Thank you for that! Agi&Dani from Hungary

  • Not enough bathrooms/showers - only one shower on our floor. Thankfully, it was mostly empty so I never had to wait, but could be an issue if it's booked full. Emmanuel (on staff) was extremely friendly and helpful! Bring your own lock if you plan to use the lockers.

  • A great deal! Centrally located, a twenty minute walk from the beach. They have lockers, but you have to bring your own lock!
