Juan Carlos' place has everything you need to make your stay in Malaga comfortable
In the kitchen you'll find what you need to prepare your meals
I particularly enjoyed having breakfast on the balcony
The area is really nice and quiet with all you need close by: a variety of restaurants, cafes, ice cream places etc where you can relax after a day out ( it is advisable to reserve if you're planning on eating out because it can be busy especially on weekends)
It's easy to reach the centre either by bus or by tram/underground in 10/15 minutes
If you like walking and exploring like I do you can reach it with a 40/50 minutes walk at a normal pace heading East
I enjoyed having a chat with Juan Carlos when going back home after a day out, it felt like home
He can advise you on places to visit in the city and things to do, and of course on places where to eat: the " Cantina India" he suggested me was really good
I also found a little gem of a café/ bookshop not far from home called "Q Pro Quo": they have a terrace on the south side where you can enjoy your coffee and cake in the sun...reading a book if you like
In conclusion, I definitely recommend Juan Carlos's place for your stay
