I booked a single with a private bathroom and was upgraded to a beautiful suite with 3 beds, a sitting area, dining area, kitchen, and bathroom. The beds were comfortable and the heat kept the room nice and toasty. The lodging was really close to the bus station (a requirement since I was taking the night bus to Algeciras early the next morning, and there were plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. I would definitely stay here again!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    This was the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in, the decor was simply beautiful and it had such a nice vibe. It was really well equipped and very clean. The staff were so friendly, especially Maria who was so warm, welcoming and helpful from the moment I arrived! Really good value for money, I couldn’t recommend this hostel more! I will definitely be back. Thanks again to Maria for her kindness and hospitality ❤️

    Casa da Madalena is in a great location, especially for the airport to hostel bus, no. 16, as well as the boats to the islands and old town. Very friendly and helpful staff who named a few local authentic restaurants to eat very good food. Safe and relaxed atmosphere and easy to chat to other travellers. Pancakes great of course, and a nice way to meet everyone and have small talk or make plans for the day.
