Staff very helpful allowing early check-in and bag storage after checkout with no charge. I left something in the room, which was attached to my bag when I came to retrieve it from storage.
My room only had a window facing into the enclosed atrium, so no traffic noise, though people were walking past the window. Clean and effective air conditioning.

A spacious and clean room and only 3 minutes walk from the train station. An excellent breakfast was available. The location was 15 minutes walk to the nearest beach in one direction and about the same in the opposite direction to Malaga’s main tourist attractions.

Malaga
The rooms are decent size and hotel is in good condition. Location is good, close to the train station and bus stop.
However the beds were not comfortable and needs changing in rhe near future. Also the air-conditioning is so old that is barely works and being so hot in Malaga, this was very uncomfortable. For a short stay, this is ok however I would not recommend for longer stays.
