I stayed in Leo’s lovely apartment for two months over the Christmas period, December 20 and January 21.
The apartment is located on a pedestrianised area just off the Plaza de la Constitucion. It’s perfectly situated for shopping, eating, visiting the sights of the old city and is a short walk to the vibrant port and beach areas. If you happen to be there at Christmas, the lights along Calle de Larios are spectacular.
The apartment is on the first floor and can be reached via two flights of stairs or a small lift.
It is clear as soon as you open the door that you are entering an immaculately clean and elegantly furnished apartment.
The lounge includes a dining table seating six, a sofa bed and a smart TV so I was able to log onto my Netflix account. Three double French style glass doors let in plenty of light and have shutters which can be opened or closed to suit.
The kitchen is galley style and is is well appointed for cooking your own meals and includes a washing and drying machine.
The bedroom has a super comfy bed and I really appreciated the quality linens. The en-suite bathroom has a waterfall shower with constant hot water and plenty of white fluffy towels.
I should mention that below the apartment is a traditional Spanish restaurant which during my stay was only open for limited hours due to Covid restrictions. When it was open, I could hear customer noise but nothing too intrusive. From my perspective, it was simply a part of the Malaga ambience.
Communication with Leo was very prompt and he genuinely cares that you have a comfortable stay.
I was greeted at the apartment by the lovely Juan who was available to me throughout my stay and who has lots of recommendations about what to see, where to eat and who helped me with suggestions of walking routes as I am a keen hiker.
I will finish by saying that I’m a single lady traveller and felt safe in Malaga and at the apartment at all times. I couldn’t have hoped for a more perfect place to stay.
