I like this concept for minimalist travelers a lot. I admire the efforts of those who maintain this kind of lodging. It is well intended but the truth is, I couldn’t sleep well. There were too many ongoing sounds of doors opening and closing, guests chatting, even snoring. Staff should be more emphatic with guests that the sleeping area should remain quiet. Doors need to be adjusted to prevent loud creaking and slamming. Yet, I liked the place a lot. It is well looked after and the staff was super cordial and welcoming.

I had a great stay at Wostel MĂĄlaga. The hostel is very clean, modern, and in a perfect location close to the train station and public transportation. The staff were amazing, friendly, and always ready to help. The rooms were comfortable, the facilities were well maintained, and the overall atmosphere was welcoming. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting MĂĄlaga and would happily stay here again.

Clean, good location, friendly staff, comfortable bed. Any downsides? The rooms are tiny - but perfect for somewhere to sleep - and this isn't for you if you want your own bathroom.

Wow! This is the future for all hotels. Spotless rooms, friendly staff, great price, free breakfast, centrally located and very quiet internally. If you're okay with sharing a large bathroom (which is spotless too) then this is the only way to stay in Malaga.

This was my first time staying in a hotel of this kind, and let me tell you, I was amazed!! The private quarters combined with the modern design and pristinely clean facilities was incredible! Yes there is a little bit of noise you may hear from your neighboring capsules but its much less than I've experienced at other budget, private hostels, way nicer facilities and they provide ear plugs and disposable sandals if you need them. <3 I

It located right opposite to La Isla station and airport bus stop just 8-10mins walk. 15mins walk to the beach which is awesome! Easy access to tourist attractions via bus or metro. Room is clean with adequate space for luggage (am staying in private upper hub). Kinda sound proof so I did enjoy my sleep. All rooms on the ground floor, no stairs to worry about. Open kitchen is simple yet you get all you would need. Fridge to store your own food, microwave, toaster and coffee machine etc. Staffs are extremely helpful and welcoming! Alway someone there round the clock. They managed to keep common area very spotless and tidy.

We would like to thank Romina for being very hospitable from the time we first entered until the time we left. She promptly greeted us with a big smile making us feel welcome., had our accomodations ready in a moment and we were set. The rooms were one of the larger rooms we had over the couse of our week long stay in different hostels. The room was clean, spacious and most importantly comfortable! The bathrooms were clean and the showers were very nice with very good water pressure. There is no hair conditioner, just shampoo and body wash but that's perfectly fine. On the day of check out we were able to store our luggage for just a few Euro. When we returned Romina was kind enough to let us stay in the lobby area to repack and get organized before our flight out that evening. She also helped explain the best options to get back to the airport, the proper train to take and the amount it would cost. vs. taking a taxi. We appreciate you Romina! Thank you :) We would recommend Wostel Hostel to anyone looking for a place that is close to the local ammenities.

This hostel is a 10 minute walk from the main train station but in the opposite direction of the old town so it's further away from the center. The walls are super thin between rooms and you can hear everything your neighbour does: from coughing/sneezing to phone calls. The rest of the hostel is kept very clean and the staff are super nice and accommodating. Although the lights in the women bathroom weren't working while I was there, the rest of the amenities were nice.

I really enjoyed my stay at Wostel, MĂĄlaga. The rooms and communal areas were clean, staff were friendly and welcoming, and everything was as advertised. This hostel is brand new and there is still some construction work ongoing (this was announced in advance of my stay). However, this was not disruptive. I also liked the coffee machine in the communal living area which is free at all times of day. This hostel is located about 20-30 minutes away from the centre of MĂĄlaga on foot. However, it is close to the train station and it is easy to get a bus into the centre. I would recommend this hostel and I would stay here again.

Great hostel. Very modern and clean. My room was ready when I arrived at midday so I was able to check in early. Staff very friendly and helpful. I had a single room with elevated bed. The room is basically a giant white wooden box. Might not be for everyone. Comfy bed with clean linen. Towels provided. Plenty of lighting and charge points. Not the best for sound insulation. I was woken a few times on the first night by doors slamming and people talking loudly. Seemed quieter on the second night. The room can get a bit hot. There was a thermostat in the room but it didn't seem to do anything. Showers and toilets were clean and spacious. Kitchen and seating area came in handy. Breakfast was very basic but only costs a few euros. Overall can't complain for the money payed. I would describe it as an upmarket hostel. It is a bit out of town. Approx 20-30 minbwalk into the town centre
