The flat was clean and tidy, bed was comfortable. place is basic but if you are out most of the time it's not a problem. The area isn't great, however no shortage of food shops and local cafes are cheap. you can walk to the old town within 15 minutes. And the train station is a 20 minute walk. Jose was a nice friendly guy, gave me some good recommdations and was there to meet me very quickly after I phoned him. I would consider staying here the next time I am in Malaga.
