The area is a nice quiet residential area, when people say local this is it. for me at least it was almost a romantic area, maybe I was in a good mood. I never met Christina I'm person but she answered all my questions quickly and recommended a local place to eat at when I asked. The listing, in my opinion, is even a little nicer than it looks online. Super simple and to the point, nothing extravagant or cluttered, yet comfy and to the point. I didn't need much just a comfy bed. The wifi is great and she leaves towels out for the guest. There are 3 floors of stairs to get to the place for people who can't climb but I didn't mind at all. Definitely would come back here if/when I stopped back in Malaga.
