Clean, quiet, comfortable. Great location. Close to Malaga Centro. There is a sewage smell in the bathroom with both sink and shower draining slow. Management should look into it. The check-in is different as you take an elevator to the 4th floor of the Hostel, then take the elevator down to street level and go next door where you take a different elevator to your 4th floor hotel room. Again, a great location.

O lugar é muito bom! As suítes ficam em um prédio próximo ao da recepção, em um lugar muito tranquilo, seguro e silencioso. O quarto era muito bom, com duas janelas grandes, sacada, ar condicionado e duas águas de cortesia, além de sachês de café e chá. A localização é muito boa, em frente ao mercado e metrô Atarazanas, próximo à Calle Larios, ao Porto e à praia La Malagueta. Recomendo aos usuários do Hotéis.com

Great location, but not with all costs

The location is great just next to the mercado and old city is reachable by foot. However, the room was totally overpriced and it was not even cleaned during the two nights of stay. It is clean as such and renovated at some point but the smell of ”spanish bathroom” is really distictive so make sure to keep the door closed and hopefully you’ll get used to it.

En övernattning i Malaga. Vi har bott här mänga gånger tidigare men de senaste gångerna upplevt att det blivit sämre. Fick ett rum med snedtak och bara ett takfönster, upplevde det obehagligt att bara ha ett takfönster, i händelse av brand. Förklarade detta och bad att få byta rum men det gick inte enligt personalen.

호스텔과 함께 운영되는 호텔이라 어떨까 고민했는데 생각보다 깔끔하고 조용하고 안전햤습니다. 활기찬 시장뷰도 특별한 경험이었구요.

No pude hospedarme en esta propiedad, era un total desacierto, personas ebrias y drogadas rondando por las escaleras de la propiedad. Estuve media hora y no pude más que salir huyendo de allí , sin y cuando era de noche y no sabía a dónde ir, pero algo si tenía claro, allí no podía pernoctar.

Yksi yö Malagassa

Atarazanas Suites sijaitsee kauppahallia vastaapäätä eli ollaan ytimessä. Huone oli yllättävän hiljainen ja kävely etäisyydellä ravintoloista ja kaipoista. Ainoa miinus oli huoneen saaminen vasta 14.30 ja lähdettävä oli jo 11.00.

Grande chambre dans le centre de Malaga

Chambre très propre dans une chambre dans l'immeuble à côté de l'auberge de jeunesse. La chambre est grande mais assez peu meublée/décorée. La fenêtre est un vélux donc on ne voit que le ciel. Bien située dans le centre de Malaga, à deux pas du marché Atarazanas (mais qui n'ouvrait qu'à 9h du matin lors de mon séjour).
