Gaucin Holidays from AU$491

Overall a lovely stay. Pros: The staff were fantastic with great communication and easily accessible via Whatsapp and the 24/7 hostel reception. They were very helpful with luggage storage, taxi booking, etc.. 10/10 for the staff for sure. The apartment was also very nicely designed and in a perfect location, right next to great eateries, coffee spots, and a supermarket. An easy and quick walk into the busiest parts of town, while situated itself on a quiet street. Cons: There was a rather terrible smell emanating from the drains. Not sure if this is just because we were on the ground floor, and I think drainage is a problem throughout Malaga, but it was quite bad. We also only had the room tidied once in our six night stay - a little more often would be nice. One of the main reasons we chose this hotel was for the in-room coffee maker, as we love coffee very first thing, but we kept running out of pods and when the room was refreshed the pods were not. We didn't need masses of coffee, but I think it's reasonable to expect one to two cups per day per person. A minor point perhaps but one that had us needing to get dressed and go out when we would have rather lounged a little longer.

Very good staying experience. The receptionist was very helpful. She introduced the nearby shops and restaurants while checking in.

Very clean! The room is brand-new with very stylish design. Sofa bed is of best quality mattress. Staff is very friendly online. The location is so convenient, literally by the gate of Malaga Cathedral and at the heart of a lively old town full of restaurants and shops. Will come back if we ever visit Malaga again.

Clean and well stocked

Clean rooms, good facilities. Staff very helpful. Location good, near to centre, but quiet.
