We enjoyed our stay at Alvaro's place during the hottest part of summer. The A/C is a lifesaver! He is very attentive and provides expeditious response to any inquiry and request for information. The flat is spacious and clean. It has all the necessities required for a few nights stay. It is located on top of a hill very close to the Castillo de Gibralfaro (Gibralfaro Castle). It is about 25 - 30 minutes walk to downtown and about 20 minutes to Playa de la Malagueta (Malagueta beach).
