Richard is a great host - very friendly and helpful, communication was perfect all the way through.
The apartment is very cozy, modern and was really clean - possibly the cleanest airbnb I've seen. It is really close to everything you will need. The C1 train station is less than 10 mins walk from the apartment (this is how you get to Malaga airport and coastal towns like Torremolinos)
On the small street below the apartment there are a few restaurants and a bar which are all quite nice. This is very convenient but could also be a potential downside if you are a light sleeper who wants to go to bed early as it's usual for people in Spain to be outside till 1.00 - 2.00 a.m. having dinner or drinks, especially on weekends :)
