Thanks so much to Rafael - the place was great, and especially for arrival from the airport as the train is so near and only 9 mins to the airport.
There's a pleasant 20 min walk to the historic centre or the possibility of a train to other beach towns - for example Torremolinos and Fuengirola (where there's a great Tuesday market) and the trains are very cheap!
Rafael was a perfect host with lots of great tips for places to eat and drink. He was very friendly and the flat was absolutely spotless and the room very pleasant!
Many many thanks to Rafael and his wife!
