My family and I stayed at the apartment for 3 1/2 weeks in November and were very happy with the place. We were traveling with a 9 month old baby and wanted to find a kid's friendly apartment where the baby could crawl around. This place was perfect as the apartment did not have a tiled floor like many other places in Spain and there was not a lot of furniture and decorations standing around for him to get into trouble with.
For us the location was perfect! It is a quiet neighborhood but really close to everything. Just a short walk to the food market, the city center, old town and the harbour area. These is also several good restaurants nearby - make sure to try the 2 places just down the street from the apartment. They will even do take away if you'd like to eat at home, which was a nice option for us with a small child.
We had very good communication with then hosts Pedro and Eva who always answered our questions very quickly both before and during the trip, and also replaced a broken frying pan in the apartment straight away when we requested this.
The internet wasn't great, as other review did also mention, but nevertheless we can definitely recommend this place and would not hesitate to stay here again whenever in Malaga.
