Terrible
Stay away specially if you are a family. To start the room was very small, with uncomfortable hospital like beds. The furniture was limited to an old desk. No shelves or closet in the room. No smoke detectors. Mold in the bathroom

Very basic hotel rooms, clean but hard squeaky beds. Needs a re vamp. I was only staying enroute to hotel so the room was acceptable for one night quick stop but I wouldn’t want to be there for a longer stay . A few minutes walk to beach and bars and restaurants . Nice location .

The hotel has a traditional Spanish feel and is ideally located beside bus stops and a few mins to beach, supermarket and coffee shop and restaurants. Reception staff are really lovely and helpful which is an asset for any hotel. Lovely rooftop terrace also.

disappointing
Good location, providing outdoor noise doesn't bother you. Nothing very positive about the hotel apart from the cleanliness. Uncomfortable bed, terrible pillows, tatty curtains, only one old chair on the balcony, definitely not worth over 100 euros a night.

Will be back to this little hotel !
Had a very pleasant stay at the Maria Cristina. Some lovely restaurants on the front, prices really good. Will certainly go back again. Maybe one small negative comment, the beds could in my opinion be more comfortable. Would not stop me from booking again though :)

Perfect location. Less than 5 minutes and you were on the beach. Hotel is great. Lovely roof terrace for catching some sun and a little bar downstairs to grab a sundowner. Staff were really friendly. Would definitely go back.

Good for the price
We made a quick stop at Hole Maria Cristiana for an overnight after a late airport arrival before starting our journey by car the next morning. We arrived late and the hotel desk attendant was friendly and efficient. The room was fine for a quick stay. It was small so it might feel claustrophobic for a longer beach stay trip. There are a strange amount of steps up and down to get to the rooms so don't plan on carrying big bags. There was a bakery next door with early morning hours that we were able to buy enough things to have a breakfast on the road.

Lovely little hotel in a great location
Hotel was spotlessly clean and smelled delightful throughout! Staff were very helpful , very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Superb location with a supermarket and the beach within a five min walk. Plenty of places to eat with decent prices and amenable staff, all within walking distance. The photos on the website don't do it justice! We had an inside room which was fairly dark even with the lightwell which would have been better if we could have opened the curtains without the people in the room opposite being able to see everything! However this was a minor thing and certainly wouldn't stop us going back. Overall a lovely little hotel in a nice area , very friendly, very Spanish, with excellent transport links. ! All at a very good price. What's not to love??

It was a very quaint little hotel in a sparsely populated neighborhood. Felt like it could've been great for younger people, felt like a really nice Hostel. The breakfast was nothing spectacular but I didn't expect much in terms of that. The panaderia downstairs was fantastic and it was great smelling all the bread!

Warm, friendly ambience
This authentic Spanish hotel is an ideal place to stay as it is close to Málaga centre and to a lovely beach. It is in a charming village with good, basic amenities. The service is excellent as is the cleanliness. For a 2* it offers all you need and more. I shall definitely return.

Close to the beach
First room we were given was not very nice. No view and very small. However when we spoke to the reception they did move us to a room with a balcony. Breakfast was a cold basic buffet. Staff very friendly and helpful. Would not stay here again only because we would of preferred something more modern and with a better option of services.

Good value, nice hotel.
Hotel's stuff is very friendly, the breakfat is good enough. Hotel near the bus stop, 20 min to the city. But be careful the last bus is at 23:00. Air conditioner in the 1-st room was noisy adn room itself was poor. 2-nd room was much better. Free parking spaces behind the hotel
