We stayed as a couple. Unfortunately our experience was not as good as we would have liked. we booked bed and breakfast. The breakfast was the same every day 2 slices of toast, jam, butter, 1 coffee and orange juice. Because we had paid in advance we had no choices (except to pay more). The hostal is a very long way from Malaga and the taxi fare from the airport was over 30 euros each way. Unfortunately when we arrived the hostal was closed and we had to make a phone call in the late evening having had a tiring flight to get the manager to come out and let us in. Nothing worth seeing was within walking distance. As our Spanish is very sparse we had a lot of difficulty making ourselves understood in the local bars , restaurants and shops. You would need a working knowledge of Spanish to stay at this hostal and enjoy a holiday in this somewhat distant residential area of Malaga. We were not impressed with the hawkers on the sea front/beach and in some cases they were downright aggressive when we would not buy their wares or pay to hear their music which was foisted upon us whether we liked it or not. The staff at the hostal however did their best to be helpful and were friendly.However due to double booking we were asked to move halfway through our stay to another room which we did.

Un saludo. Efectivamente tenemos un horario de check in pero sabemos que no siempre el cliente lee toda la reservación y es por eso que ademas tenemos un sistema de Keys box para garantizar que el cliente tenga garantizada su llegada, no obstante si la cosa se complica, acudimos para ayudar al cliente, tal como ocurrio en este caso. El desayuno es bastante mas variado, hay croasant, pan mermelada de tres sabores, mantequilla, pate, cereales, zumo, tes (hay una carta muy variada), infusiones, fruta, ect. He visto lo de los vendedores ambulantes, esta es una zona muy turística y como hay muchos extranjeros estos vendedores vienen aquí, lo que si me parece muy extraño es lo de la agresividad, porque que tengamos conocimiento nunca han agredido a nadie, quizás pueda parecer un poco pesados porque hay muchos. De todos modos pemitame dar unas recomendaciones humildemente bajo nuestra experiencia: Los establecimientos están publicados con las direcciones, es muy fácil valorar si algo "para nosotros" esta lejos o cerca de algún sitio en concreto. Por ejemplo si tenemos problemas de movilidad, para subir o bajar escaleras, para caminar ect, y queremos estar en el centro de la cuidad, pues entonces hay que buscar en el centro. De esa forma no nos encontramos con estar "lejos" o "cerca", usted se encuentra donde escogió. No obstante cuanto lamentamos que no hayan sido unas buenas vacaciones, si nos hubieran comentado alguno de sus inconvenientes les pudiéramos haber ayudado.

We used this Hostal for one week to allow a base to visit various towns on Costa Del Sol. We were allocated was a basic double bedroom with a little storage and our own bathroom Decor was old and tired but bed and bedding were new and clean and
room overlooked an enclosed courtyard. Staff were all very helpful and tried to help answer our questions. We were in an area called El Palo which is very Spanish and not yet spoiled by touristy traps. Plenty of eating options and also reasonably priced. Easy to use buses (regular service and 1.30 euro per trip)to go into Malaga and travel down the coast.

It's a nice and quiet place, with a very friendly and hospitable stuff. There are all facilities needed (beach, shops, bus stop, restaurants) in a very short walking distance. Had a great time there!!

I stayed two nights at this hostal (Spanish word for small family run hotel) and could not fault it in any way. My room was delightfully presented and spotlessly clean, with a generous sized bathroom. My room looked onto a beautiful courtyard and there was another terrace at the front of the building for sitting out. The location is great if you want to get away from tourists and only about 15 minutes on the very frequent bus service to Malaga centre. Sandy beaches nearby and lots of interesting little tapas bars etc.

The Hostal Moscatel is situated about 30 minutes by bus from the centre of Malaga, but given that the buses run every 8 minutes that is no hardship. The rooms in the hostal, while small, are comfortable and very clean. The view from our room was of two buildings under construction, but given the fact that the only time we were in there was to sleep it didn't bother us, and there was no noise apart from an "alarm hammer" at 8.00 am. Breakfast was available in the hostal at reasonable price, and as it wasn't a set breakfast you could choose what you wanted from the menu and pay accordingly (usually about 4 Euros). The owners are a very friendly young couple.I mentioned the bus service, and I would suggest that you buy a "tarjeta" from the newspaper shop adjacent to the bus stop. This gives you ten journeys for 8.30 Euros. If you are a couple you do not need to buy one each, just use the card twice each time you get on the bus. One other point, if you need to change buses,(to visit the castle for example) as long as you do it within an hour you only pay for one journey. An excellent place to stay.

The hotel is on a side road, in the suburbs of Malaga. The area has an identity of its own. There is parking outside and bus stops on the road at the bottom. You catch a bus from the airport , buy a ticket from the booth outside arrivals on the concourse. It takes you into Malaga Bus Station where you get on the local bus. We just showed the staff the hotel address and we were put on the right bus. All costs a few euros.
The room we had was lovely, it had a seating area, en suite bathroom . It was at the front , wasn't overlooked overlooked and filled with sunshine.
We had breakfast on a little terrace garden area at the front.
It was about three euros each. Ive never seen so many types of tea. The coffee was excellent. We had a huge croissant each. It's not often that I can say the breakfast was cheaper at the hotel. There was also a choice of toast and toasties, the ham and cheese type is called Bikini.
The rooms are cleaned every day. The staff are really helpful, there is also a notice board at reception with useful advice posted by other guests.
Walk down to the main road, turn right to Malaga and there's a bike shop. The Irish owner is a serious cyclist. He hires, repairs and sells. He'll make sure you're knitted out, put panniers on and you're off! Go along the coastal promenade in the opposite direction to Malaga and you'll find more beaches and little resorts used by the Spanish . You can bike or bus into Malaga. We did walk but it was a bit far.
Along the beach are little tavernas with charcoal bbq's, little fresh fish, crusty bread and a beer will cost you around four euros and make perfect lunch.
Towards Malaga is a flat promontory . There is a restaurant /bar . It's got those floaty white sun screen/curtains round it. Give it a visit, it's not expensive, it's in an old garden and the local council are trying to develop it which would be a shame. All of this interesting local info came from the guy at the bike shop.
Returning to Malaga this April, struggling to find a little hostel/hotel as nice.

I will try to answer you in the best possible way. You are a liar. There are towels and soap, The room is the size that describes the accommodation, you can't read? You don't look at the conditions and characteristics you hire? It is clear that what you say does not fit reality.
