This apartment is in a great location for exploring Malaga, especially if you're looking for something a little off the beaten track. The views from the balcony are great! The square in front of the building is very lively and fun, popular with locals. However you are only 5 mins from the Cathedral and Calle Larios as well as 20 mins walk to the redeveloped port area and another 5-10 mins gets you to the Malagueta beach.
The apartment is sparkling clean and although rather sparsely equipped for cooking, it probably has most of what you need for a short stay including a toaster, microwave and stovetop coffee maker.
It is very bright and cheerful (as you can see from the photos) and the light pours in most of the day. There are fans in both rooms to keep you cool but no AC. This did not bother us but something to think about in the dog days of summer. The bed is a comfortable small double and might be a problem for taller people. Overall we found the flat a little small but we are not typical holiday makers and if you plan to be out and about most of the time, you might not find that.
We enjoyed our stay here (although we much preferred the flat next door which we moved to after 2 weeks) and Raquel and her team were very friendly and super responsive, solving the problem with the boiler which broke down on a Sunday! within 24 hours. There is alot of renovation going on in central Malaga and we had quite a bit of construction noise but that is just the luck of the draw. Oh, and the central market, Mercado Ataranzanas is only 2 mins walk to some of the best, freshest seafood you will ever taste!!!
