This was one of our favorite AirBnBs. Helen is a great host and responded quickly to any questions we had. The AirBnB is in a great location for walking around town and only about a 15 minute walk to the port and a 20 minute walk to the Malagueta beach. Taxis or Ubers will not be able to take you to the front door of the apartment due to the narrow streets, however, it is only a short walk of less than 5 minutes from most drop-off points. Having a working phone or downloaded google maps helps if you are new to Malaga.
The apartment is well laid out and nicely decorated in a beachwood style and well stocked with the basics such as laundry soap, dishwasher detergent, paper towels, etc. The kitchen was fully equipped and had a dishwasher and two half size refrigerators with plenty of room. The apartment also includes a washer/dryer combo unit which works great. These combo units take a long time to wash and dry with large loads, so using smaller loads is better. The living room was comfortable and had a coffee table. The wifi was very fast around 100 MB/s and worked great. The TV was a smart TV and had HDMI inputs for those who care. If you are using a device like a FireTV, you will need an extension cord to reach the nearest available socket. The bedroom had a comfortable bed with two nightstands. With the window shutters closed it was very dark even during the day. The bathroom was a good size with enough shelf space to hold our stuff and the shower worked great. Even the towels were great. One of the really nice features of this apartment was a semi-private patio with a small patio table and chairs and an outdoor heater for cooler winter nights. There was also a Carrefour Express and larger Mas supermarket a short walk away. If you arrive on a Sunday, only Carrefour Express will be open.
Also, while you are in Malaga, make sure you go to Mirador de Gibralfaro. It is a 30 minute uphill hike from the apartment and has spectacular views of the city.
We hope this place is available next time we visit. We had a great time and felt right a home staying at Helen's AirBnB.
