Alberto’s apartment was in an ideal location for exploring Malaga. The apartment is on a street that does have some noise and when we stayed it was quite noisy on occasions in the night. The apartment was lovely and clean although the shower was very slow in draining. The communication prior was quite poor. We had a message asking for passport copies which I was reluctant to send for obvious reasons, so I asked if there was any other way of doing this without sending copies of our passports. I had no reply from that question for 4 days even though it states the host responds within an hour. 24 hours prior to check in we still hadn’t heard back and had no check in details so I had to call direct to get this sorted. On check in day, as instructed we went to get the key from the location described to us only to find there was no key there. After another direct call someone met us outside the apartment who gave us the keys and took pictures of our passports. Due to the poor communication I probably wouldn’t stay here again as it was an added stress that I could have done without.
