I stayed there three different times in 2004. The first time i sneaked in after hours to kip in a spare bunk of a friends room. The second time i was sharing a four bunk room with two other girls i didn't know but they were trustworthy and it was fine. Third time I had a room to myself which was nice but i didn't have en suite and the shared bathroom facilities aren't great - you have to keep your hand on the shower button to keep the water coming (i tried three different showers and they were all the same) but overall its ok especially if you're a yha member.

Evrything you wish (big pool, garden, tennis, table tennis)very cleen and in the center of Marbella. But bring your locker. I have been there for 3 month and it was fantastic.Met a lot of people. Only thing is the security. like in every place, be careful and that´s it.

I do not reccomend staying here. The hostel itself was not bad. Breakfast included (a roll and coffee) and the rooms were sparse. Location is quite a hike to the beach, but about 10 or 15 min walk to the bus station. I dont reccomend it because it was very loud, due to lots of groups staying there and giggling girls downstairs in the lobby until all hours of the morning. Also, the internet costs a fortune and the machine plays commercials REALLY LOUD... ALL NIGHT and you can hear it from anywhere in the hostel. Also, my ATM card and my friends address book was stolen out of our LOCKED private room, so unless you get an expensive locker downstairs, you can forget owning anything of value after staying here. Basically, there are a ton of small hostels in much better and quieter locations. Dont bother with this place.
