Our recent trip to Malaga, and our stay at Maria's apartment was a great experience. She has recently done a complete renovation on the unit, and it was tastefully finished both with material choices and interior decorations. My girlfriend and I definitely liked the feel of the unit, along with its spacious size, perfect for an extended trip. The bed was extremely comfortable, one of the best I have ever slept on in Europe. The water pressure was tremendous in the shower as well. The temperature in the unit was well regulated, we didn't have to use the air-conditioning once.
A few items of complaint would have been the lack of any basic cooking ingredients such as salt, pepper, olive oil, flour, sugar, etc. We ended up purchasing all basic cooking necessities and left them after we departed. Further I would recommend bringing extra bath towels, as only two were provided, which becomes problematic for two people during an extended stay.
Lastly on a minor note, the building across the street is undergoing construction, so during the day there is definitely some loud noises in the day.
Staying in Spain we tried to avoid drinking the tap water, highly recommend buying bulk water from the local grocery store, 50 cents for 1.5 litre bottles. Also, for any and all produce go to the local market three blocks away.
All in all, we had a great trip to Malaga, and a wonderful stay in Maria's apartment! We would highly recommend it to anyone, especially for the price which seemed very good vs the rest of the units we saw available. Definitely unbeatable value!
