The apartment is in the historic part of Malaga and the area is full of life, bars and restaurants. The beach and many interesting sites, such as the Picasso Museum, are an easy walk. Very beautiful building with many features from the original Moorish house that it replaced. Very usefully there was a lift and easy access to our third floor apartment. The owner spoke good English and was very good at giving us help such as booking excursions. I managed to leave my wallet in the back of a cab and she sorted everything. My only reservation would be the noise from the street, we were located at the front, the street is narrow and it holds the noise in. It wasn't much of a problem to us but you knew when the rubbish truck was emptying the bins. We very much enjoyed our stay, would recommend it to others and will hopefully return ourselves.
