This is a great place to stay! Lots of shops and restaurants are nearby and if you're not afraid of walking most of Malaga's museums, the bastion, and the beach as well takes only 30-35 minutes of walking.
If not most of the buses has a stop nearby. The host was very helpful and friendly, unfortunately we couldn't meet in person. He helped us with the the transfers to the airport and if we had a question he replied within an hour sometimes in an instant. The apartment is the same as the pictures, clean and tidy. I hope we can go back sometime in the near future.
