10/10 Excellent
"The Bajamar is an excellent hotel, positioned in quiet place within an easy walk to the centre. The staff are really friendly and helpful. My only slight criticism is that the attached cafe and bar closes at 3pm in late September until the end of the session. So you aren't able to take a drink up to your room as you prepare to go out in the evening. Other options are nearby but it would nice to go downstairs and take a coffee or beer back to your room.

"all staff very friendly and helpful, cleaner did excellent job along with towels changed regularly, panoramic view of nerja and surrounding areas from rooftop terrace, excellent location, air conditioning excellent, extremely comfortable double bed, if you ask at reception they are very happy to provide a loan of a iron, no sunshades provided for loungers on terrace, toaster was a disaster as there was no settings on it and had to stand by it and remove toast when it was toasted (on first use toast was burned to a crisp) it would have been appreciated to have two sets of keys to enable us to occasionally go out separately for whatever reason."
