“In my opinion, this property emphasizes the essentials: clean rooms and a helpful front desk enhance its appeal, while its underground parking offers considerable convenience in a busy area. The central location proves ideal for exploring Málaga's attractions. Though somewhat basic and occasionally noisy, its strengths make it suitable for a short stay.”

the restaurant next door was convenient. the staff was friendly. the breakfast was good. the location is very central and close to many things.

the room was too hot. there was no air conditioning, only heating, so i switched it off at the control on the wall. i opened the window to get air, but it was not cold air, so it did not make the room comfy for sleeping.
