Reviews

  • Marta from Hungary (8/10)

    Perfect location, walking distance from everything you need to see in Málaga. Very comfortable beds.

  • Stefan from South Africa (8/10)

    The location is right in the middle of everything, yet slightly one street to the side so it is not noisy and easy to get everywhere. The apartment looks really nice, and almost better than in the pictures. I didn't know the room had it's own balcony and then the larger balcony walking out from the living room. The shower was lovely and overall the building smells very clean through the staircase. Getting in was very easy and very well explained.

  • Mounir from Morocco (7/10)

    Location is great, the room is very good, clean and well agenced

  • Velechovský from Czech Republic (8/10)

  • Liliana from Canada (9/10)

    The location cant be better in terms of being right in the center but not a busy street (no cars) so it's pretty quiet. There is an elevator, which is very helpful when you bring large heavy bags. The bed was very comfy and the shower was powerful.

  • Brid from Ireland (8/10)

    If you want a comfortable quiet nights sleep and in a good location this is the spot.
    Comfortable bed and no outside noise. Location – excellent/ lots of nice restaurants and bars locally – great balcony

  • Christopher from United Kingdom (8/10)

    Excellent location, room very clean

  • Zoltán from Hungary (8/10)

    The apartment is in an excellent location on the edge of the city centre, but the street is not too noisy. The two small balconies are useful, and the room and bathroom are of ample size. Relatively modern furnishings, good usable spaces.

  • Lindsey from United States (7/10)

    The apartment is in a good location, just a 5 minute walk to the historic city center.

  • Tracy from United Kingdom (8/10)

    Very spacious, good location, large terrace
