We had a great time in Malaga. We were a group of 6 people staying 4 days at the beginning of June 2018. Our host was very nice (even though we arrived late) and spent time with us to recommend places to go and restaurants.
Positive points:
- The house is massive and provides plenty of space for a group of 6 people. The rooms are good, beds are ok, no oven in the kitchen but this is a minor problem as we were eating out most of the time. Kitchen is otherwise fully equipped with plenty of plates, cups, glasses, cutlery etc.
- The roof top is really cool to have drinks in late afternoon. Big enough for 6 people. Nice patio as well.
- In my opinion, the house is very well located, close to everything, we have not use any public transport for the 4 days.
Negative points:
- There is a construction site just next door, with workers starting at 8 in the morning (even on week ends). The construction of a new building seems to have started very recently and the noise is terrible. It is impossible to sleep after 8am (very annoying after a long night out).
- The house is advertised with 2 bathrooms, but we actually only used one as the bathroom of the second floor must have something wrong with the pipes. Everything works well but the smell is unbearable. We ended up using only one bathroom for 6 people, not as advertised...
- The walls and ceilings are full of dead mosquitoes. And I can tell you there are also plenty alive. Very hard to sleep with mosquitoes flying around your ears and biting you all night long. If I had one recommendation, it would be nice to have electric mosquito repellent plugs available to guests.
Overall, I think it is ok value for money, but I would probably try another place if I was to come back to Malaga and put a bit more money to avoid the negative points listed above.
