This place was soooo crazy clean and so much space for the money. Hostess was so kind and accommodating.
My only difficulty was getting response to messages, but in person they were right on top of things and happy to help.

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.

Worst experience ever. No communication. Staff is rude, no Internet - place was Dirty with stains and tears on everything. No bedding and tons of bugs. If you want to enjoy your time in the city. Do not stay here
Vi har haft en bra vecka, rent och fint boende. Poolområdet var ett plus. Ac i lägenheten. En kvarts promenad in till centrum. Kan verkligen rekommendera detta boendet.

Stor och rymlig lägenhet, bred och skön säng, 180 cm. Stor och solig terrass. Golvet var inte så rent, lite fläckar här och var.

Assistenza al cliente scarsa. In piena notte si è rotto un flessibile del boiler: allagamento e intervento al mattino successivo,senza sostituzione del tappeto e dell'asciugamani utilizzati nella notte

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.

El dueño del alojamiento no respondió a los mensajes. Tuve que enviar muchos mensajes y aún no hay respuesta. Tampoco sabía inglés. Las zonas comunes podrían haberse limpiado mejor y la zona de la piscina también. No puedo recomendar.
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.

Wonderful place in quiet, authentic neighbourhood
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.
La struttura ha un buon rapporto qualità prezzo. Purtroppo il tempo non era bello e quindi non ho potuto sfruttare i servizi tipo la piscina.
Consiglio di mettere un phon negli appartamenti.
Dejlig lejlighed beliggenhed i byområde 10 min gang fra stranden ved El Palo, der er et fantastisk hyggeligt område med masser af seafood restauranter.
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.
Reception nie besetzt. Man muss immer anrufen wenn man was braucht. Leideider wird nur Spanisch gesprochen. Apartamentos sind sauber, aber könnten besser ausgestattet sein. Wunderschöne Pflanzen im Innenhof.
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!"

Tilava asunto rauhallisella alueella. Hyvät bussiyhteydet Malagan keskustaan.
Veritable appartement bien équipé avec grande terasse à 20mn de la plage et des commerces. Personnel à l'écoute et parlant français. Bus à proximité pour se rendre au centre ville de Malaga. Bonne experience.
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.
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.
