Despite at first exploration feeling a little disappointed with the accommodation, we began to feel quite at home after a few days. The living/dining room is very comfortable, spacious and nicely furnished - though it all looks a little worn and shabby. The kitchen facilities are adequate and there is one bathroom w. toilet, bath and shower attachement over the bath (however with no hook to fasten your handheld shower). There is a secondary small shower room (again nowhere to attach the hand held shower) with toilet. Both showers really were giving a rather poor performance as well as being awkward to hold, and the three bed rooms are very small. We only used one of the two 'double' bedrooms' and wished that the double bed could have been in the childrens' room instead, which was the biggest, but had a bunk bed and two single beds in it. But you get used to this and the fact of having comfortable seating both for eating and relaxing makes up for a lot. And of course, most important of all is that the apartment - in a secure apartment block with locked external entrance - is so conveniently located in the Old City Centre of Malaga. Everything was within walking distance for us and we thoroughly enjoyed our walks and then coming home at the end of the day either passing the many tapas bars and picking up a Thai or Japanese or some other takeaway on the way, or stopping in one of the many restaurants round the corner. That is exactly what we had been looking for.
We had several friendly text messages from Sergio - our host - both before coming and before checking out, but we never had the pleasure of meeting him, as originally he was away in Lisbon and we were checked in by Ana - a nice Spanish woman, who however spoke no English.
All in all a good week in a lovely city location, with just a few niggles.
