We stayed in the city rooms. Very clean, basic but had everything you needed. Fridge and kettle provided. Amazing view. In a great location not too far from
the tourist sites of the city and close enough to supermarkets and smaller restaurants in soho area.

Great location
Tea spoons in mugs in rooms weren’t cleaned
Lots of noise from outside but also the fridge in the room is very noisy so very hard to sleep
To get to the hotel room you had to walk through the cleaning cupboard

Our room was perfectly sized (small, but you don’t need more on a holiday). It was clean and we even got beach towels upon request!
Location was great! It was easy to check in and out. The staff was so nice!

We had 3 balconies, on the third floor, overlooking the market. The view was perfect. Also excellent soundproofing for all windows. Lots of places to eat nearby.
The climb up to the 4th floor of the hostal next door, to collect the keys was quite hard work. Although the hostal offered breakfast for 5 euros to guests from next door, the room was rather uninspiring and we chose to eat in the bakery down below.

The location in the middle of town and the checkin/checkout was butter smooth!
Nothing big, but the toiletbowl seemed loose/not glued to the floor

Location is superb, short walk from Old Town, Beach, port, Historical site and the railway/metro links, room, mine overlooked the old market, was comfortable, great shower and bathroom facilities plus plenty of room to move about, plus flexibility for choosing if you wanted or needed room service 👍
Some addition drawer storage or shelves was the only thing missing but not a major issue 😀
7.0 / 10.0
Location was great and staff in hostel next door were exceptionally friendly and helpful - knowing they were there to answer any query we had made the trip.
Nothing about the property but noise outside disrupted our sleep both nights. Nothing the property can do about it - the first night it was a small group of people shouting and arguing, the second night it was the early morning bin lorries.

This was my first stay in The Lights Suites (or Lights Out Hostel) and I initially wanted to stay here for the good price and central location of the accommodation. The check in was easy and the staff were very helpful, spoke English amongst other languages, and allowed free storage of luggage.
The suites is connected to the main hostel- but has a different entrance only located a door down. The double room with a balcony that I booked was a good size, had a sofa, air conditioning, tea/coffee making facility, mini fridge, storage (no safe) and a balcony that overlooked the Atarazanas market.
The room itself was comfy for the price, located very central to Malaga and you would not even hear the noise outside when you closed the windows. I would recommend this place for a short stay, because of the price and location only.
The first thing we noticed when we entered the suites building was a smell similar to burnt toast- we thought someone was burning bread somewhere but the smell lingered in the hallway and elevator area throughout the place. I think it came from the bakery that is located beside the building- but there needs to be some improvement here.
Another thing is the overall cleanliness of the room. The bedroom was ok for the most part- but the coffee cups were stained similarly to the spoons provided. Moreover, the kettle itself has LOTS of built up limescale stuck to the bottom of it and I even tried to boil water a few times to no improvement...So we did not have any tea or coffee because of that.
The bathroom as well had an awful smell coming from the shower drain or the toilet- we weren't really sure. It smelled like an open sewer!! The toilet bowl even had one of those air fresheners stuck on the inside of the toilet and this did not make any difference to the bad bad smell.. Please sort out this smell for future patrons!

The building has two side the hostel and the suites which we stayed in. We arrived before check-in and were able to leave bags while we had lunch. Our room was great, a double bed and sofa bed. Plenty of room for 3 adults. Nice to have some cooking facilities (kettle, toaster) and a fridge for drinks etc. We also had a small balcony which is really useful for drying swimwear. Hairdryer in the bathroom was bonus.
The location is amazing just off the main road where the airport bus stops, a few mins walk from there do easy even with cases. Also, it's right opposite the market where you can get the most amazing food.
Staff were really friendly and helpful. Luggage store a bit bonus.

Clean, nice that the hostel had things going on and free things. Good view from the balcony, easy to access and good location.
Walls were thin so could hear the room next door very easily. Not loads of storage space.

The room was very clean and the bed comfy; great location and having a kettle was indeed a nice touch.
It was not as insulated as the room description said it should be, but the street where the hotel was was indeed very quiet at night and I could sleep like a log

Nice shower 🚿
Mediocre, tiny rooms, no cupboards or wardrobes as the room is so small so they put a hanging railing. There’s no reception so they send you up to a crazy busy hostel next door where the staff sit and collect your money. Nobody bothers with you after that and the cleaning staff find it a chore to clean your room, you literally have to beg them and they say “not enough time” and make any excuse to get out of cleaning so I just let them get out of it during the five days I spent there. I suspect it’s because they’re under paid.
If you choose a room with a window, be careful this is directly opposite the NOISY market and it’s like you’re in the middle of a zoo everyday even with windows tightly shut. The room without the window (or just roof windows) I didn’t choose because I’m claustrophobic… all in all, they’re getting clients because of the central location… but other than that, this is just an overhyped overpriced place. I regret choosing it.
Do not book if it you’re having a leisure trip.

It was very poorly and dirty, there is a window in the bathroom next to the floor so people walking outside can see you. The rubbish bin in the bathroom was full of rubish and cigarettes.

Nice bathroom.
Polite stuff. Early check in.
Very bad smell from the bathroom spreading in the whole room.
Noise from the street and even bigger noise from the rooms around.
Only one roof window where you could not see anything outside.

Great central location w corner view on Atarazanas Market. Modern, comfortable and overall clean room and bathroom. Good value, and worth the upgrade fee for the unique views on this Malaga landmark with loads of authentic eateries.
The following did not dampen our stay but: towels were a bit shredded; room floor could have been cleaner; building lobby to elevator was a bit smelly.

Great central location, clean and had everything we needed. Lovely dual aspect room.
Tiny bit of noise could be heard from other rooms in the morning (showers running) but probably only if you’re a light sleeper. Bathroom window didn’t seem to open which would help release steam. there was an extractor fan though.
