I have stayed before modernization of rooms a plus reasonably clean as to be expected with amount of rooms used.
Shared bathrooms get busy at certain times.
But overall good location and prices.
Would be good if staying open all year round

WORST ROOM / Dirty rooms
Worst experience I’ve ever had.
The pictures on the website is far from what you get, it is literally false advertisement.
The walls were full of what I suspect to be bodily fluids, the beds dosnt even have a top mattress which they advertise that they do, which means the Beds are rock hard.
I left within 2 hours of arriving, I would have left sooner if I had another place to go to.
They also take your keys every time that you leave the hotel, even if it’s just to go to eat, buy a soda or whatever. You HAVE to leave the keys with them every time you leave.
So to summarise.
I would personally advise NOT TO BOOK
I have attached some pictures of what I booked, vs what I got

Vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel. Kleine kamer zonder terras. Netheid is een troef. Enige minpunt is het lawaai s' nachts. Je hoort iedere deur dichtslaan.

Friendly, spotless and ideally situated.
I have stayed at The Serramar previously and have found it to be an extremely friendly hotel and in pristine clean condition.
It is situated in the centre of Arroyo De La Miel, just a two minute walk from the train station which takes you to the centre of Malaga in one direction and to Fuengirola centre in the other. The beauty of the train of course is it stops just across a quiet road from Malaga airport terminal and Arroyo De La Miel is only seven stops from the airport. Excellent value for money to at only 2 euros 55 cents.
The Serramar is ideally situated for the miriad of shops, bars and restaurants in Arroyo De La Miel and is only a five minute walk to the cable car and market.
The beach is also fairly close, with a leisurely ten to fifteen minute walk downhill to it .
I would and have recommended this hotel to friends and give it my first consideration when booking in the Arroyo/Benalmadena area.
