Don’t let yourself be fooled by the slick professional photos and deceptive advertising. This is NOT a luxury apartment as advertised. And while it certainly can be perfectly fine for kids on a beach holiday it is totally unacceptable for older folks, particularly for anyone in Malaga on business. Here’s why – both good points and bad. First the good: - The apartment is in a good location vis a vis the city centre – a bit of a steep climb on foot up from the main downtown area and not recommended if you are out of shape or elderly, but quite convenient otherwise. - it is modern looking, very spacious and clean, with a nice wooden-type floor, good sized rooms, very comfortable beds, excellent wifi, and 3 TV screens, two of which spectacular, internet-enabled, 50inch TV screens with Netflix, Youtube and all channels you could want, including foreign. - it has a nice kitchen with a good electric stove, big refrigerator, microwave and all necessary cooking and eating amenities - absolutely nothing to criticise here. - the shower is very large and modern with excellent water pressure and temperature regulation – a real delight. But now the bad: - The noise. The walls of the entire flat are paper thin and the constant noise is like a bombshell. Boy is there noise! The whole building is a live wire of constant uncivilized banging and shouting, above , below and next door, day and night. And the very narrow street below is a megaphone to what the owner leads one to believe is charming local noise but which in anyone else’s book simply is very rude screaming and shouting in loud Spanish totally oblivious to people resting above. - But it doesn’t stop here.. the walls being so thin, there also is a constant low-frequency electric hum noise which was so loud that my friend in the 2nd bedroom was unable to sleep without heavy-duty earplugs. Unplugging the kitchen refrigerator helped a bit but the hum never went away completely as it actually originated outside the apartment and was transmitted and amplified through the walls. - the miniscule bathroom space was a joke. As noted, the shower was great, but other than that the bathroom space was tiny with only a miniscule washbasin with a small mirror above it with no light fixture (so it was difficult to shave properly) and no space or ledge whatsoever for cosmetics, toothbrush or whatever. Moreover there was not one hook or hanger anywhere in the bathroom for towels or bathrobes – we had to lay these on a chair OUTSIDE the bathroom. That said … Malaga is a wonderfully happy and sunny town with some lovely spots despite being a bit of a tourist trap (it’s teeming in November, I can’t imagine what it must be like in July and August!) and it’s not easy finding a reasonably-priced, authentic meal in the center. As for the apartment, it certainly was not expensive and...
