Catherine is a wonderful host, we arrived at 2 AM in the morning after the French air traffic controllers' strike delayed our flight a few hours, and she awaited us smiling and fresh like it was 4 in the afternoon. The flat is perfect for a small family (we travel with our 3 year old), the bedroom is spacious and has ample storage room, the bed is comfortable and was large enough for the three of us (true, we are small framed). There is a large fold-out corner sofa in the living room, suitable for sleeping, if one is so inclined. A small table with some chairs and a small kitchen helps with breakfast and dinner, but there really is no need to cook. The flat is dead center in the city, Noviembre the best breakfast and burger place is exactly 200 meters from it, and the port with the shops and restaurants is a mere 15 minute walk, straight through the inner city's winding cobblestone streets. We came during Semana Santa, when festival processions involving extreme masses of people and noise continue unto dawn, and it goes through right in our street. Yet, somehow, defying all physics, we didn't hear a peep. The flat looks out to the courtyard and is dead quiet, with shutters on every window, so sleep is all but guaranteed. The only notice is for larger framed people: you might find the shower a tad small. All in all, Catherine's place in Malaga is highly recommended, and so is the city itself!
