The apartment is bright and airy, in a pretty typical Malagueña building with double french windows and cosy balcony with wonderful views out to the promenade and sea. It is a bit noisy during the day but we expected that after reading reviews, because it is right on the seafront coastal road, so it’s a trade-off.
Buses pass outside regularly to take you into town (10mins, 20 to walk) and also towards Pedragalejo with its beaches and cafes.
There are shops and cafes nearby, and chiringuitos a couple of blocks away. It’s ideal for a couple, a great base for exploring the city, as you feel you’re amongst locals, away from the tourist hordes, but with the centre so easily accessible.
