Enjoyed a great stay at Alberto's apartment which is about 20 minute bus ride into Central Malaga. The neighbourhood where the apartment is located is residential although some bars and restaurants are within easy walking distance. We only stayed two nights in the apartment, Sunday - Tuesday so did not really explore the local area but it seemed safe and perhaps would be lively at weekends. Alberto provided useful information on transport, bars and restaurants. A great stay in a clean, quiet and wel ewuipped basement apartment.
