Location was amazing within meters of the bars/restaurants in the heart of the old town.

Restaurant attached has limited hours out of season so would have been nice to have a deboning the evening in the hotel but not a big issue.

Location is perfect. You have everything provided.

Mattress was a little soft . But I also know you can’t make everyone happy 😊

The room was modern and stylish, with a nice bathroom, and everything was very clean. The air conditioning worked very well, and there was daily cleaning service. The room had a fridge and a coffee and tea set. We are rather short, so the bed size was fine for us, but it might be too short for very tall people. The location was excellent — in a quiet and peaceful part of the old town. We requested a quiet room, and it had a window facing the courtyard, covered with light-permeable film. We didn’t mind the lack of a view at all — it made the room nice and quiet. Communication with the property manager was excellent.

It's situated on the most adorable picturesque typical little street, the rooms which are all upstairs have just been recently refurbished the photos don't do them justice, even although I booked a single I had a double bed which was extremely comfortable, excellent quality bedding and towels and the bathroom was in beautiful cream marble, it was way above my expectations, the owners are lovely and even let me keep my room on until 4pm at no extra cost as I had a late flight, nice touch. I will definitely return, be sure to find the tiny little courtyard on the street in front with a little church and a couple of little restaurants.

+ Very convenient location in the centre of Marbella, on a quiet picturesque street. + Good bed, efficient air conditioning, good shower, a kettle and a fridge in the room. Clean and comfortable. + Friendly staff + The restaurant belonging to the same owners offers tasty dishes at very reasonable prices. + Value for money. Generally, it's a very good hostal for a couple of nights, especially if you're interested in the city, not in the sea.

- In the bathroom, I missed a heated towel rail: would be convenient to dry towels and fight humidity. I came to Marbella not for the sea, but if your aim is a beach holiday, there's nowhere to dry towels.

This is a little gem of a hotel. It's quiet on an adorable street very close to the centre of the old town. The rooms are very comfortable and functional. Aircon works a treat. The staff looked after me and regularly cleaned my room. There is also a lovely Spanish restaurant below which is amazing value for money. I will definitely stay here again.

Old Town Marbella is small yet quite nice. El Gallo is in that OldTow, perhaps a half block from various plazas and church squares where you’ll find food and drink. No breakfast served however again, you’re just a half block from various opportunities. One thing, the restaurant in El Gallo is Lunch/Dinner type, Don’t miss going there, it’s a locals place with very Very good food. Cheers !

The location is ideal only a short distance from a number of restaurants and bars. Also very close to orange square and 10 minutes walk to the beach. El Gallo is set in a quiet street where you feel you are part of the real Spain. The check in process is very quick and efficient. Our room was exceptionally clean, a good size with a walk-in lovely shower. We have stayed at a number of hostels in Marbella and El Gallo is certainly the best we have stopped in because of its location and excellent facilities at a very competitive price. We would definitely stay again.

Nothing.

Great accommodation in Marbella..Location is close the bus station, in heart of old town, close to the beach... Down is restaurant, upside is rooms... In a quite street... You have keys of down door and room door which is very safe... The room is so big, very clean, bed is very comfortable and big, you have little fridge for cold drink or food... On the wall is TV with much channel if you want... Bathroom is so clean, they give you few towels, soap and champoo...They clean rooms every day and change towels...Hostel is so close many restaurants and bars but is so quite if you want to rest... People who work there is so kind and helpful... All recommendations for visit and to be guest if you in Marbella
