It was in a nice area not far from the beach. Good transport into Malaga. It seemed strange that only one teabag per person was placed in the room and no coffee was available.

This hotel is close to a area with lots of restaurants and a walk to the beach only took 5 min. The busstop is 20 meters away. If you wan't to shop for groceries it takes 7 min to find a bigger shop, both east and west of the hotel. Only bad thing I could think of is that you hear a lot from the other rooms, noise. But other than that it's good.

The staff at check in did not speak any English. As the website was english, and no notice of this on hotels.com, I expected them to speak english. I did email the week prior to arrival about the airport shuttle which is on the website but had no reply. Clean hotel otherwise. Close to beach.
