Jean-Luc’s apartment is clean, modern yet characterful and well equipped. The location is great for enjoying the old town and the many bars, restaurants and sites as well as in easy walking distance of the waterfront and beach. There’s a small well stocked supermarket a few metres away that has long opening hours.
Jean-Luc and Mabel are attentive and helpful hosts and there are thoughtful touches provided - a cold beer in the fridge was very welcome and things like shampoo and shower gel would be great if you have only got a small luggage allowance.
The downside of the excellent location is that it can be noisy at night, especially on Friday and Saturday nights. The acoustics of the small streets mean that sound travels - I suspect that this is true of any centrally located apartment in Malaga. You may want to take earplugs. The location of the apartment makes up for this inconvenience though, I would go back myself.
