We had the best possible start of our holiday at the accommodation of Jose Luis. He was already waiting for us outside to lead us to his own parking place since the parking spots on the street were all occupied, which was very considerate.
we loved the cosy and very clean apartment. It had absolutely everything we needed, including groceries for the first day. This was great because we had a very early flight and this way we didn't have to leave the apartment for any shopping.
What we liked about the apartment as well is that it was outside of the city centre but very well connected. There's a bus and a metro within short walking distance that can take you to the airport (bus A) or the city centre. You can walk to the centre as well but that took us about 30 min and we didn't like the scenery that much. A bus ticket to the city centre costs about 1,40 euros. We had a rental car so we only did this once since we liked taking trips outside Malaga. Leaving the city was very easy as well from this spot.
Even though we don't speak any Spanish and Jose Luis doesn't understand English that much we could communicate well enough. Jose Luis also gave us the number of his kind daughter in case we needed to ask anything. She is an English teacher so her English is perfect. She also gave us some recommendations for our trip.
There is a nice playground for small children at park Huelin where our two year old sun loved playing. If we ever return we will definitely consider coming back here since it was a hospitable place.
