I am rating this Hostal as average due to all the other good reviews and some positives though our experience was not that good. We just were disappointed in our room, #102. It was our only disappointment in 27 days in Spain. The room is just blah. It misses being quaint and is just chintzy. We tried to switch rooms but the Hostal was full over the weekend. (I had requested a view and thought I was getting one but didn't).Two twin mattresses pushed together to form a larger bed but we kept falling in between the crack. No TV which I guess I should have known. We pulled a blanket out from the closet and got a faceful of dust. The bathroom door doesn't close very well as it is a slider without a bottom track. The tub was very tough to shower in and keep your balance. One tiny light in room and people in the hall can see in as you have to leave the window open to a small atrium for air. I think if the owners stayed a night or two in this room they would see the flaws and fix it up. On the other hand the owners are very nice and helpful and the location is great. A full English breakfast was very good for 7.50E. 43E per night is a decent price. We would try this Hostal again for those reasons but would try another room. Nerja is a great town to visit and the Balcon de Europe has fantastic views.

Just returned from 4 days staying at Hostal Miguel in Nerja Spain a really good place to stay the oweners Ian and Jane could not be more helpful or friendly we were treated as friends rather than guests and nothing was to much bother. Rooms lovely and clean and we had a balcony over looking the street which was great to watch the world go by.
Would recommend this place definitely for couples or families with older children will be going back the whole place of Nerja is brilliant

We loved Hostal Miguel...... Ian and Jane were so helpful and friendly it was more like staying with friends than a hotel! The hostal is great, rooms were clean, homely and well equipped (ceiling fans rather than air con but was fine with windows open as very safe) and Ian gave us some great restaurant recommendations!
The hotel has a lovely roof terrace and a supply of books, games and beach equipment for borrowing!
Location was also great, right in the centre, near everything but our room was at the back so we're weren't bothered by any noise.
We preferred the beaches that were a bit further away (10min walk) than those at the Balcon which are small and overcrowded. Would definitely recommend this place and look forward to visiting again!

Ian and Jane really are great hosts. Personally I loved the breakfast I chose of sausage and tomato on fresh bread with English tea. Bathroom a little small for me but all facilities worked well. I loved the courtyard and the roof top terrace, library of paperbacks, good wi0fi connection etc etc.
