8.2Verified guest“My stay at this cosy apartment in Málaga was fantastic. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the old town and close to transport. The staff were kind and accommodating, letting me leave my luggage after checkout. The room was small but had everything I needed, including fresh linens and a well-designed bathroom.”
8.2Verified guest“Convenient location near the city centre and the beach. The rooms were well-equipped and the reception was open 24/7. The staff were polite and helpful, especially Jose Carlos. I'll choose this place again. Hasta la proxima!”
8.2Verified guest“Great area, a 10-minute walk from the centre. The room was surprisingly big, with a bed that was 120x200 cm, not the 90x200 cm I expected. There was a small fridge with a freezer, a beautiful bathroom, and lots of storage. It felt safe for a solo female traveller, and the door could be locked. The heating in winter was amazing.”
8.2Verified guest“The rooms were clean and the staff were helpful. There was a roof terrace with a smoking area, which was a nice bonus. I appreciated the on-site laundry and the comfortable bed. The location was ideal – just a few minutes' walk from the centre, but without the noise. A great budget-friendly option with convenient amenities and a good location. The only downside? None.”
