Loved our stay here at the Apartamentos Turísticos Alhambra. We took the #3 bus that was very close by and were able to get anywhere we wanted in the city. The host was a lovely lady, super friendly and responsive. Two issues to be aware of - there are no screens (which looks to be the norm in Malaga) so you do need to deal with the occasional mosquito. We had fantastic weather (80 deg near zero humidity & cool at night) so we loved sleeping with the windows open but when we tried to use the A/C to cool the room at the end of the day, it wouldn't work unless it was set at 22 deg C and even when set at that temp. it turned on for a minute then stopped working entirely. We didn't raise the issue because again, we prefer open air but I would imagine when the weather gets really hot, that would be a major problem that needs addressing. The apartment is in the east end of Malaga so you really feel like a local and you get immersed in the culture. Very much a non-tourist feel which was great.

La estancia ha sido buena. Tan solo creo que en la bañera debería haber alguna barra de agarré para entrar y salir de la bañera. Y no encontré ninguna manta en el ropero para utilizar las personas frioleras en la cama. El resto genial.

It is really a big apartment with a very nice terrace but it is 30 far away from the city center by bus. There was a really bad smell coming from the chicken sink and the same problems was in the close bathroom where the fan didn't work. There fornitures of the apartment were really poor: no air dryer, no place where to put towels, no soap, and few tools for cooking.

Et ok hotel området meget kedeligt udkants Malaga.

Hotellet var sådan set fint nok, værelset var fint rent . De talte meget lidt engelsk, for at sige slet ikke. Fransk gik bedre. Fin lille terrasse med en meget lille pool. Området var meget kedeligt. Man er nødt til at tage bus til Malaga hele tiden. Stranden var rigtig nok kun 10-15 min. gang fra hotellet, men man skulle et stykke ned ad strand for at finde liggestole med parasoller. Der var et meget fint supermarked ca. 10 min fra hotellet og man skal selv sørge for sæbe, opvaskemiddel, toiletpapir osv. Vi havde bedt om et værelse oppe med udsigt. Vi fik et værelse på 1. sal med en terrasse med en 2 meter høj mur omkring så det var så som så med udsigt.

Très bonne location située à 15 minutes de Malaga. L’appartement était en parfait état et propre. Nous n’avons pas utilisé la piscine car les plages sont à 15 minutes mais celle-ci est tout à fait opérationnelle et d’autres résidents se baignaient régulièrement.

What a gem! The apartment was spacious and much nicer than indicated by the pictures. Very large, sunny balcony and a carefully managed garden and pool deck. We had such a good time here and extended our stay. Kitchen could be better equipped, but that's a very small detail in the larger picture.

The property is not within ‘Malaga ‘ proper. This was a big plus. It is located in a charming area called Palo with beaches and restaurants and a true neighborhood feel. We went into the City to experience the museums and other cultural opportunities but were always happy to return to the normalcy of this neighborhood. The apartment itself had none of the amenities that we would have liked to have found in a rental.....beach chairs, more than minimal kitchen tools, explanation about bus lines, local resources etc. The staff tried hard to make our stay pleasant. They did not speak anything more than very rudimentary English and we have basic Spanish language skills and so some of what we wanted/needed got lost in translation.

Beautiful, very clean, lovely and quiet, very rural, no postcards or straw donkeys! Manager Paco is a lovely chap who doesn't speak much English but I speak enough Italian for him to understand everything. There's the odd British couple, a small but gorgeous pool, great location for the bus - which is only 1.30 EUR - a 15 minute walk to the sandy beach, lovely restaurants, and bars with lovely tapas (cheap, tasty, great value). Will definitely return soon! AIRPORT SHUTTLE TRANSFER COMPANY - VIAJES URBIS MALAGA - YOU MUST NOT USE THEM! We paid for the flights and accommodation package deal online, ebookers recommended a travel shuttle service to collect us and return us to the airport a week later. I accepted and paid £28.92 and received the booking paperwork by email. We landed at Malaga to be met by a female rep from the north of England who was extremely rude and angry. She told us our bus had gone and that we have made another couple wait for an hour for us to join them in the car instead. We set off in the Mercedes saloon and the other couple denied the time-wait, saying it was only a 20 minute delay. The driver dropped the couple off at the wrong place! The same happened to us 20 minutes on. The driver made us walk for 45 minutes in 35 degree heat. On our return - they failed to turn up altogether! Just get an airport taxi for 30 EUR and forget Viajes Urbis Malaga!"

Personnel très aimable et cadre agréable, nous avions loué un studio et avons eu un deux pièces spacieux. L’hôtel est proche de la plage (10 minutes à pied environ) et d’un arrêt de bus régulier (le numéro 3) permettant de rejoindre le centre de Malaga en 15/20 minutes. Il est proche de toutes commodités sans besoin de véhicule : supérette (la cuisine est équipée de tout le nécessaire dont une cafetière italienne), restaurants, pharmacie etc. Le coin piscine est bien aménagé avec transats et parasols, sur une autre terrasse se trouve aussi une table de Ping Pong.

Goed appartement met goed uitzicht

Een prima appartement, een beetje uit de buurt, maar zeker met de fiets wel goed te bereiken. Geen winkels dichtbij. Appartement een beetje kaal, maar verder prima ingericht. We verbleven er 3 nachten, geen keukendoek of iets om de vaat mee te doen, maar eetgerei is aanwezig. Mochten onze fietsen in de garage zetten en de auto kon goed op straat, gratis, worden geparkeerd. Wel waar voor je geld, mooi uitzicht.

Take a trip to Malaga!

The hotel has a lovely rooftop pool (near the reception) with plenty of sun chairs and is reasonably close to the beach (about a 15 minute walk). The number 3 bus that can take you into Malaga town center is very close (about 5 minutes walk) and only costs 1.30 euros! All of the big restaurants are down by the beach, with the more popular restaurants being on the part of the beach closest to Malaga so be prepared to walk (or just get the bus as it passes through). We checked in late (past 12am) so had to pay 35 euros (not 25 euros, which was stated) and also paid a deposit of 50 euros each. On our departure day it took a little time to get our deposit back, so I would suggest allowing at least ten minutes for this. We asked for the airport shuttle which cost 30 euros but were left waiting for fifteen minutes as I think the taxi driver either forgot about us or was lost. Again, just ensure you have allowed time for things like this! Wifi was an issue throughout our stay; it worked on the first day but after that the connection was too poor. Luckily we had plenty of data on our phones so bare this in mind!

Stor rummelig lejlighed i stille lokal område

Stor lejlighed med stor terasse i enkelt stil. Vi kom for at slappe af og nyde varmen. Der var meget roligt og der sker ikke meget i nærområdet. Málaga er 7 km væk og kun 10 min i taxi eller 20 min i bus. Meget venligt personale og fint pool område. Wi-Fi kunne være bedre
