Close to the town center and fully equipped, Iris's place is the best you can hope for even for a few days in Malaga. From her flat, reaching the beaches near and outside the town center won't take more than 30ish minute by bus. Her suggestions were definitely a plus, since the tapas bar and restaurants she recommended were definitely worth it! Any better place to go for a quick Spanish trip down south then? Just go for Iris' and you won't certainly regret it!
