Barbara was in contact with me immediately. It was wonderful to be met by her, personally, to chat with her, to have her explain how things work in the apartment, which is very tastefully decorated, comfortable and very functional. She even had a bottle of Rioja, a bowl of fruit and little touches of Christmas around the apartment, making it warm and comfortable. It is on a quiet street, yet walking distance to everything, I wanted to see and experience and the map that she marked with sites and directions was worn out by the time I left. This was my first time in Malaga and I will definitely recommend the city and this Airbnb. If you're vegetarian, I suggest Canadú! The best vegetarian meal I've had in Spain. Barbara is labeled a super host for a reason! Absolutely 5+ stars.
