Overall Ratings & Reviews The Lights Hostel

Great staff and crowds of all ages. However despite the quite hours starting from 10pm some guest couldn’t read the sign and thought it was nice to open and snack on bag of chips till 1 in the morning. Add in all the curtain swipe and zippers and you’ll know. €5 for dinner was a bargain.

Have stayed here over the years without any problems, but this time around not so good. Clothes and shoes stolen by another traveler who left early in the morning without checking out. Although they knew who it was they didn’t want to get involved themselves but suggested I deal with it myself with the tourist police. So I’m guessing that their good name as a hostel means nothing to them. P.s. while I was out buying replacements. The hostel cleaners helped themselves to my food and drinks(3) they left(2). When your guests are robbed in your premises it’s your business.

Super well situated, clean hostel.

The staff are very helpful in pointing you to local attractions. The continental breakfast is reasonable for 2 EUR and coffee is complimentary. The screens on the beds aren't perfect, but they work as well as can be expected. It was busy, but quiet at night while I was here. Overall, a good stay.

Very clean and comfortable stay. Easy walk to town centre. Would definitely stay again.

The staff at The Lights go out of their way to be helpful and friendly. They cook a delicious 3 Euro meal every evening to enjoy on the rooftop. Great place to meet people! It is a bit loud between the noise from the street and other guests but that is to be expected being near the city center and it is a bit of a party hostel, but not too crazy as the rooftop closes at 11pm. Would def stay again!

Friendly hostel with interesting leople, central location and amazing staff. Kitchen in good shape and nice terrace

The stay was comfortable. The people staying there sometimes didn't clean after themselves after they made number 2. But overall good

It was very comfortable. Liked the staff and the beds. Showers are good too.

This hostel has a great social vibe, great location, friendly staff and I would definitely stay here again.

It was super!! thank you very much for all your job and comfort staying.

The hostel location wasnt seem rightly on online map

Sleeping was difficult with too many people.

This is definitely one of the better hostels I've ever stayed at. The service was great and they are very good at getting people actively involved in experiencing the area. They had free tours and cheap drinks and every night they would make dinner on the roof. They were also very clean

The best hostel! Amazing staff who provide free dinners and sangria each night. The vibe at the hostel was just what I needed during my stay in malaga. Pub crawl each evening which is a nice way to get to know other travellers

This place has a great vibe, with friendly and helpful staff, kitchen facilities, common room, chill out area and a roof terrace with barbecue. They offer s continental breakfast for €1.50 and a free small meal on the evening. I gave this hostel a 7 out of 10 instead of a 9 out of 10 for 2 reasons; It was cold in the dormitory and also quite noisy from the traffic outside which caused me to book elsewhere. Maybe it was just my room!

nice people and nice settings. If you want to meet and talk, this is the place to live in

All Staff are friendly and helpful Well located and within 5 minute of the shopping district, bars and other local amenities. Central Train station is only 10 minute walk away providing easy and cheap connection to the airport.

Good atmosphere, free food and snagria on the rooftop terrace everynight. Staff were very nice, located quite near the centre and very walkable. Only downside is that the entrance is slightly hidden away and might be hard to find at night after travelling. Highly recommended.

the bed is quite comfortable but the blanket is a little bit smelly. The shower room is ok. The free dinner and a cup of sangria are also nice.
