After booking a major hotel in the area and leaving after ten minutes I fell upon this gem. Right on the sea front so walkable to everything. Staff were great, shower really good and the hotel very clean. Small coffee/ tea self service in reception and a few breakfast pastries. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again

A unique experience! Very good value if you are staying for just one night. Just hit and miss if you are sharing your pod room with quiet or loud people!

This is a great option for travelling on the budget. However it is not a good idea to stay there longer than 1-2nights. It is quite loud, and matters was extremely thin and uncomfortable. And if 2 people are watching tv in the pod it’s also uncomfortable cause you have to use provided earphones but the angle jacks are is not comfy at all. Host was extremely nice and helpful. It was a lean and fun place to experience. There is also a gaming area, bathroom is nice as well. Overall strong 8/10 but don’t stay there too long

The sleeping pod was too hot and we couldn’t adjust the temperature. The pod we were in had damage inside and the TV did not work. We were able to store are luggage before check in and after check out for about four hours. The was a great feature. Overall would stay again if the price was right.

overall pretty ok. but everything costs extra. no free parking extremly available. parking underground car park pretty expensive at 22€/day. but the most important thing (in ANY hotel) is the mattress. it consists of a cheap 6cm thin foam mattress which is VERY uncomfortable. the saved on the most important thing in ANY hotel and sacrificed good sleep of their customers...

Good for a short stay
Overall, Futurotel was good for the purpose of our stay. We arrived in Malaga after midnight and needed a place with 24 hr checkin that was clean and safe. To that end, it met its purpose. To have stayed any longer would have been tough. The pods are in a dorm and whilst each one is securely locked and you have a locker for your bags, there is absolutely zero soundproofing. Highly recommend ear plugs which can be bought at reception. The pods are clean and have an aircon vent running through. The door for each pod locks from the inside and has a key card to unlock from the outside that also pairs with your locker. Overall, it was a good place to stay for one night if you arrive late in Malaga or are passing through.

Future prospects
If this is the future, then I don’t want it. Nothing worked, no internet, no TV, then what’s the point? simply pathetic, but the worst of all, you are sleeping in a closed box With loads of cables and wifis around, no outside air or sunshine. Tried to cancel before arrival, but was not allowed, so I went only to realise this is Not the future I want to experience.

Pleasantly surprised
I have never stayed in a hostel before but I was presently surprised on my first stay. The room was like a spaceship, the walls are thin so if you’re a light sleeper it may not be for you as you can hear people snore/outside etc. in the room there are numberous pods on two levels with one bathroom. There is a separate bathroom with numberous toilets and showers within. On arrival you are given a bag with towels and remotes/game controller to your pod, you have a locker within the room for your belongings however I kept mine within the pod.

If you are a light sleeper stay away. Plastic capsules amplify the sounds . People were in and out and taking all night we never slept. Somebody was smoking and the whole room smelled of smoke. No detectors and bathroom was tiny

Amazing. Don’t believe another review.
I loved this place. After my review I’ll probably never be able to get a free room/capsule again. Normally I don’t read reviews and if I do I don’t take them on fully and this time I’m glad I didn’t. I booked one night and stayed four. Great value and low season also. The area is fab. Bus straight from airport through Malaga and 4 mins walk and you are there. The staff were lovely and always busy working. I had read something about check in taking a long time but eh they checked me in and showed me around bringing me to my capsule room and showed me how to use key etc. I have stayed in hundreds of hotels and I never got this treatment. The place is spotless and the cleaners are always busy. The showers were fab and the selection of shampoo and body wash would put the Ritz and Hilton hotel to shame. Now loved the heated toilet seat in the room, The radio on the mirror if you are taken a shower, the kitchen and games area was also super. Loved the meat restaurant across the road on the corner. Pricy but fabulous. I went with 2 starters and the roasted potato was huge. There were great offers also for jacuzzi time celebrating birthdays etc on there premises. The bed was a little thin, hard but you can get that at any hotel, it’s their choice of mattress but loved the Netflix availability.

It was not a problen from the hotel. They were kind to explain that i booked a capsule and not a normal room . The problen is expedia . Only 15 minutes intercurred from the booking to the check in and they hadn't received the booking fron expedia . No chance to contact them . Fee not refundablr , lost 3 nights accomodation . There must be common sense but i think that in this world with these rules is gone . At least put a reservation fee but not 3 nights not refundable for 15 minutes

The bed mattress isn’t great at all and they do ask for our weight to adjust it but pretty much is waste of time. Also the air conditioner inside is not controlled individually so you’re relying on stuff members to do it. And guess what? They didn’t show any signs of interest to do so,shame I’ve paid enough for 3 star hotel to stay in a hostel!!! Never ever again

Bedroom without aircondition- HOT
Inside at bed it was between 26-28 degrease temperatur. You had to sleep with open shelter/door in cabin. Most likly there is not a aircondition installed in the bedroom and you need of this reason to keep the door open. This due to a common aircondition is installed in the roof for the room where all bedroom shelters are installed. Not any good solution. Not much sleep for us. It was brought up several times.

If you are desperate. Stay here. The blond lady at the front desk during the day is cheerful and energetic, and helpful as is the tan night staff person. The rest of the staff, unhelpful, rude, lazy, and refuse to speak English. As an advertiser of English and Spanish languages, the staff speak very little English and are unwilling to help those that speak English. On the conditions, with people sleeping in the lobby and in common areas with their luggage. Sharing a bathroom with your “roommates” means 30 people sharing one bathroom or 100 sharing the common bathroom with 3 showers and 2 stalls. The building does not generate enough energy to provide adequate air conditioning in the summer. The pods have ZERO air conditioning. A fan system to get the air from the room into your pod works poorly, leaves you with heat exhaustion at night. POD sleepers leave the door open at night to get cool air. The safety is non existent. There is zero security, the closets are not lockable, anyone can open the left side with a credit card and screw driver due to cheap latches. Anyone can also walk into the hotel into the closets, take anll of your belongings and out again between 10 am and 5 pm. Because the lack of attention at the desk and low staff. At night it is worse, the front desk staff is often resting/sleeping/having personal time during works hours in the rest room next to the front desk with the door closed. Not only is it difficult to get help if you are inside, as our tv

Die Lage des Hostels ist super! Nur leider ist die Matratze derart dünn, dass man quasi auf dem Boden schläft.. Außerdem ist die Lüftung in den Kaspeln nicht gerade leise. In meiner Kapsel ging plötzlich mitten in der Nacht der Fernseher an, so dass man davon aufwacht..
