Catherine was very welcoming, and provided good information about Malaga. The apartment was clean. We ended up only staying here one night before we flew home. There are no views from the window, it looks into a simple tiled courtyard , the white wall reflects the nice light that you get in the pictures. The area is hard for street parking but there is a pay to park garage at the end of the road. The area is mainly housing and is a little walk away from Malaga's main attractions. There is a lot of American bars near by, that the area must house a lot of young students. Not the local night life that you might get in other parts of Malaga. At night it is quiet, none of the windows face the street. There was a sewage smell that lingered, the place may have older plumbing, though the apartment was very clean.
