I was welcomed at the apartment by Eduardo's lovely friend Maria as he was working the day I arrived. After a long journey it was a welcome to see a friendly face. She was very helpful and took the time to show me around the apartment, explain to me how to turn on the hot water and access the internet and show me on a map where we were in relation to other amenities and the sights of the city centre - we went up to the beautiful roof terrace from where you can see the whole city. She made very good recommendations for the best local places to eat and other tourist sight seeing. It was a relief to learn that most of the places I wanted to visit were within walking distance - it is easy to walk everywhere. The apartment is furnished nicely and was very clean. There was some milk, tea and coffee available. The kitchen had everything I needed and there was a supermarket around the corner that was open late to buy food or snacks if I needed (but I chose to eat out most of the time). I was happy with the neighbourhood, I felt safe as a woman travelling on my own, the city centre is full of people on a Friday and Saturday night from families with children, couples and young people all out at the many bars and restaurants having a good time. However, it still pays to be wary if you are out at night time and away from the main crowds (like in any big city). The apartment is tucked away in a side street and is 1 min walk in either direction to the main roads that lead into the city centre. Malaga is a lovely vibrant city - which I wanted to experience. Even though the apartment is tucked away I would bring ear plugs if you area a light sleeper. Lovely views from the roof terrace. Its an easy walk to the Roman Amphitheatre which is also right next to some nice bars and restaurants and you can walk on up to the Alcazaba from here too - stunning architecture, gardens and breath-taking views. I would highly recommend a stay at Eduardo's apartment its an ideal location and friendly neighbourhood. I'd book again if I was travelling on my own or as a couple.
