We enjoyed a couple of days in carlos' apartment, which is located in the east of malaga, a more relaxed and not so touristy part of the city. We had a wonderful first time in spain. Much apprechiated the pick up from the airport to the apartment and back from the driver paco (an excellent city guide as well), who was proposed by carlos. There is a bakery in front of the building and a super market 5min across the street. the beach is also a 25min walk away. We can warmly recommend this accommodation!
