We stayed at this apartment for just two nights so we could be close to the beach for our final 2 nights in Málaga. The apartment is as the pictures suggest, it's bright and breezy and well equipped. The sofa bed is not as big as I thought it would be so it would probably be best for one child or two very small ones. The neighbourhood is not quite as grim as some have suggested. True, it's not picturesque or touristy but it is convenient and it's certainly close to the beach. The beaches of El Palo are also nicer than those nearer the centre of Málaga.
The only negative we had was the arrival process as there was a miscommunication and neither Rocio or Pepi were there when we arrived. We were also unable to get in touch with anyone at AirBnB to try and sort this so we were left on the street for just under an hour. Still not sure how or why this happened but nevertheless it did.
