Barbatuke B&B

This was by far the most disorganized hostel I have stayed at. While the rates are the cheapest you’ll find in Málaga, do not be surprised to receive what you pay for. My partner and I booked two beds in a 4 bed shared dorm which was actually a 6 bed shared dorm with 4 beds in a separate “room”. All 6 of us shared one bathroom and one kitchen therefore this was false advertisement for what we booked. Our flight had been delayed so we ended up not arriving into the hostel until about 3 AM. When we arrived, there was only one clean bed available and one bed that was not being used but had not been cleaned by the maid from the day before. As we arrived so late in the night, my partner and I simply shared a bed. The next day, the maid came in to clean beds and we claimed a new cleaned bed to ensure that we had the two beds we had paid for. At this point, four people had left which means that there were still 3 beds that had not been cleaned as she only cleaned 2 beds. Again, the maid left the beds uncleaned all day and two new people arrived that day, making my partner and I need to share a bed again. Overall, the maids do not clean the place well. They left the full trash bags on the counter, never replaced any hand towels or swept the floors. The only two positives about this hostel were that the host was very responsive and kind, and the location is great for walking.
