This hostal is much more like a hotel. Beautiful and unique rooms with private baths and traditional Spanish-Muslim decore makes this place stunning. Air conditioning was very helpful and the staff was super sweet. Highly recommended.

The hotel is situated in the narrow cobbled streets about 10 minutes walk from the centre of the old town. The rooms are nicely decorated in Moorish style, though the bathroom was a little strange in that it was ensuite but was sort of if the bedroom cordoned off by a glass screen. Everything was perfectly clean, though the room was a little dark. There are a couple of bars nearby and although there was no noise from them, I was often awoken by people walking home and talking quite loudly. (I had the window open,and was on the ground floor) if closed I doubt this would have been a problem. The rooms have A/C too, so closing the window wouldnt be a problem even in summer.
In summary, I good budget choice, with unusual decor and well situated.

The interior is nice and the rooms very "exotic", even if its more morroccan style than spanish. The biggest drawback is the bathroom : it is located in the room thus not very private exept for the tainted glass.

The service was average and they didnt have a credit card machin which is very annoying.

We stayed at Hostel Lineros 38 l on 9 and 10 September 2009.

The hostel is just absolutely fantastic. We stayed in room 3 which was on the ground floor and the room was a wonderful surprise. Super kingsized four poster bed, excellent shower room and beautifully decorated with a Moroccan theme to it.

The hostel is just about an 8 minute walk to the centre.

Try the Museum of Wine and Tapas restaurant halfway down Lineros, the food and wine are excellent.

We would certainly recommend the hostel.
