Positives: excellent location for local shops & Malaga old town 5 mins walk. Safe & quiet for a large town. Mostly well equipped & clean. It would have rated excellent for our needs, compact, low cost, preparing light breakfast & supper otherwise out sightseeing all day. Entry videos excellent but for exterior lock prob. Central heating good. Neighbours in building quiet & friendly.
Negatives: let down by bad continual sewage smell in bathroom despite using air freshener spray. Lacked info pack abt facilities & local facilities, Wifi, microwave, TV, etc & fire safety, emergency services, etc., including slightly tricky exterior lock. Some mosquitos (it seems they cannot be avoided, v different to our hotel experiences with none) no advance warning to bring spays. Broken bowl (of 2 provided). Crockery not microwave compatible. Microwave not fully functional. In hindsight, we should have reported these issues at the time but owner was not on site, although friendly & willing
