The home is really clean. The room has a wardrobe with hangers and an organiser, a big shelf, bedside cabinets, therefore loads of spaces for people that want to put their stuff in a nice way and helps so much when you are packing. The bed is a big bonus point to me, it feels so nice!
In terms of location, it is just 10 minutes to get to the centre with all pubs and restaurants. El Corte Inges, the large chained departmental store, is just 2-3 minutes away. Fast food and supermarkets are available within 3-minute distance. I just found it’s perfect because it is not as noisy as centre but it is sufficiently close for everything.
The host is really really nice. He is so helpful and I think he is really cute. He doesn’t speak much English but he does try his best. He has got (I think a friend or a neighbour) that helps him to translate when necessary. Otherwise, utilise Google Translate and there will be no problem at all!
If you send him English message only, it does take a bit of time for him to translate that. What I have done is translate simple English in simple sentence (minimise the mis-translation by the Google tool) and he can response much quicker.
A small tip is, because there is
an adjacent room to this one, you may want to tell Maurizio if you have to wake up early the following day and not wish to be disturbed. This is especially when people in the next room is going to check in late (which can be very common because they can finish their dinner and arrive at 11pm/12am in Spain). It’s just because you can’t avoid inconsiderate people or sometimes, they don’t know there are people sleeping in the next room! I am sure Maurizio will be happy to help!
Overall we really enjoyed our stay with Maurizio! And if to revisit Malaga, we will choose his home again!!
