The host was very friendly and helpful and responsive. The apartment is soooo central I can't stress this enough. So many amazing restaurants/bars/shopping/attractions downstairs from us. Despite being central it was very quiet at night because of the double glazed Windows. The apartment is in the old town so car access and parking is dificult however just 5 mins walk away there is a paid car park or you can park around the city with the metre. We were driving to neighbouring towns that's why we rented a car but otherwise you don't need a car in Malaga. The only downside is that the ceilings aren't as high as I would like because the flat is on the top floor (with lift). The red and black Color combo in the living room is not to my taste but you get used to it after a day and it's worth it for the location.
