Flat 2b-Plaza de la Merced, is around the corner, so everything is very close and walking distance.
Apartment looks clean, bright & tidy. There’s a window/balconette (enclosed-probably a good thing as looks onto bins at the back of a supermarket), so no nice view but lots of natural light. Excellent air con, it was warm & cozy. There is a smart TV. Enough kitchen equipment for one or two people. Enjoyed the elevator, very stylish.
Enjoyed my stay and would recommend. 8.5
Bathroom: shower tray fills with water if on full (doesn’t drain quickly enough),
& is slippery when wet!
No extractor fan above stove top.
Late night bin collection (1am+2am & early morning).
The contract, a little menacing, stating all the things that they will deduct money for, before you’ve even stepped over the threshold (welcome!), but I guess that always happens when you rent from a company rather than an individual.
An awful, large coffee table (peeled & tarnished), doesn’t fit the lovely room.
So nothing major.

The location was brilliant, close to everything and had a supermarket directly across the road!
I contacted the property in advance to ask about the possibility of an earlier check-in (at an extra charge if necessary), as I am 30 weeks pregnant and travelling with a toddler, and we arrived in Málaga very early. I was advised to message again on the day to double-check. When I did, the response was quite blunt, simply stating that the apartment was not yet cleaned. As a result, we were unable to check in until exactly 3pm, which meant spending several hours sitting on park benches trying to entertain a small child.
Upon arrival, we also had difficulty accessing the property, as someone had locked the front door from the inside using a key.
Once inside the apartment, it was immediately apparent that several things were in need of updating and proper cleaning. The sofa, in particular, looked very worn and unclean, with a blanket placed over it rather than it being properly maintained. All upholstery, including the decorative cushions, would benefit from a professional clean.
The cleanliness overall was disappointing. In the shower there were thick black curly hairs on the walls and basin, indicating that cleaning had not been done thoroughly. There was also visible black mould around the kitchen sink area and in the shower.
The bed was extremely uncomfortable, and the pillow was very hard, making it difficult to sleep well. There were also no duvet or pillows provided for the sofa bed, although thankfully no one needed to use it — particularly as the street noise at night is quite loud due to the nearby refuse centre.
Small, low-cost touches would greatly improve the experience, such as providing basic tea and coffee sachets, making some effort to accommodate early check-in requests where possible, and ensuring the property is properly cleaned before arrival. The TV also appears outdated and could do with an upgrade.

Great location. Good communication with Let Malaga. Comfy bed
The apartment needs a deep clean. Cushion covers & upholstery needs cleaning. Had to ask for extra toilet paper. Toilet brush holder dirty, they replaced it but didn't take away old one.

It was clean and modern.The bedroom area was nice and there was wardrobe space .
It was very noisy . The noise was from outside - traffic and refuge collections going in all through the night. This was especially bad for the person sleeping in the lounge area.
It was disappointing that there was no tea/ coffee on arrival. The bathroom sink was cracked , the bathroom bin was old and rusty and the shower head was leaking.

It wasn’t clean enough, and we had no hot water, I called the manager he said there is no stuff to send to u to fix it .. so we didn’t shower for three days .. that was very disappointing

Perfect location: close to bars, restaurants, attractions and the beach. Uber is €20 to the airport and only 20 minutes in the car. Air-con in rooms. Clean.
The walls are extremely thin and you can hear everything going on outside. Towards the end of our stay, there was lots of parties/noise/slamming of doors coming from other apartments which we could hear up until 3/4am. This made it difficult to relax and sleep.
The bathroom is extremely small which made it difficult to clean and use. There was also the smell of drains towards the end of the stay coming from the bathroom.
6.0 / 10.0
-bed and pillows was so comfortable
-black out blinds!
-air con worked very effectively
-nice living room/kitchen set up
-utensils, cups, fridge, washing machine etc
- lots of storage space, tables, wardrobe and lots of space in general
-near to town <2 min walk. Amenities all nearby. 15-20 min walk to C1 line.
-elevator.
-WhatsApp chat if you need any help, replied quickly and friendly.
-information given before check in (difficult to figure out the main door though)
-Shower was VERY cold, hot water lasted 10 seconds at beginning of shower. Pressure also not working it was not enjoyable.
- door has to be slammed really really loudly which disturbs neighbours as very stiff and gets stuck.
- door knob with key code seems to be falling off, wasn’t sure if this was secure and safe at first felt quite scared the first night**
-creepy characters hovering outside the flat which meant not always feeling safe.
-balcony/terrace door does not lock, which was right outside my bedroom so felt I could not open my blinds in case someone entered the terrace.
-TV channels only had radio or inappropriate chat channels - no actual TV.
-cleaning was not to a good standard at all, sofa felt dirty and I had to wipe all the surfaces down which had dust and dirt on them. One of the towels was dirty too. Lots of dust under bed and empty bottle which was not mine!
-bathroom super duper narrow and shower door doesn’t shut.
-walls super thin can hear people peeing or coughing, however lucky my neighbours were quiet!
**WhatsApp chat kindly offered to view the video I sent them RE door not shutting easily, however I decided not to escalate this further.
Hopefully this feedback is constructive:)

Cozy, central and everything you need. No problems with check in or check out, AC in both rooms and keyless access
Limited kitchen supplies.
10.0 / 10.0
Easy access. It was in an area that was walkable distance to most place of interest, yet not too busy.
Lift available if required. We got apartment on the 1st floor. Good space for 2 people.
All amenities available including washing machine.
The shower door didn’t close completely so the water drips down onto the bathroom floor. But this was more because we were worried it could damage the interior - which was already happening to the bathroom door.

Good location. If you like being bitten by mosquitos- stay here. If you like Netflix don't stay here it doesn't work.
Roof terrace furniture filthy. Need a bowl for salad in kitchen. Expensive for what it is. Online registration form sent so late I had to spend 2 hours in a bar with bad Internet trying to complete the form. Then when I got to apartment NO INTERNET for 24 hours. Letting agency sent wrong log in. I had to ask for apology. The worse customer service EVER. I have been coming to Malaga for 4 yrs and this was my worst experience.

The property is near to almost everything in the city
The property is not clean and also the neighbourhood is not clean there was a trash can in front of our house so the smell wasn’t good and a lot of flies everywhere

Location is very good. Easy to walk everywhere. Apartment is clean and ok design. Food market next to house.
Door lock is a bit problematic to use. Walls are like paper, you can easily hear everything from in and outside of the house. Luckily it was quite peaceful for me. Not possible to store luggage at the house. I found 5€ storage for my luggage from Bounce luggage storage with friendly service.

Location was excellent and apartment was clean.
I could not come early and leave my luggage. Check in time was 3pm but it was not ready until 3.30 as the cleaner was still there working when I arrived at 3pm..

This apartment in well located minutes away from restaurants, historic center, public transportation. It's well suited for a longer stay for two people but you better bring your own bathroom supplies as you only get enough toilet paper, shampoo, soap for 2-3 days. The management replies quickly (within a few hours) on any questions. Out plane arrived before noon and they allowed us to check-in early, which we appreciated a lot.
Overall, we enjoyed our week and a half stay there!
There is lots of noises that you can hear coming from other apartments in the building, some even in the middle of night. On weekends also from the outside. The unpleasant smell in the bathroom doesn't go away. One of the appliances, the electric built-in grill, didn't work, so we couldn't make pizzas etc. (we notified the management but noting happened).
The shower leaks a lot of water unless you are extremely careful. The leaking caused severe damage to the bathroom door that stayed unfixed. Obviously they've been ignoring this problem for a long time.
6.0 / 10.0
Very central location. Ok for a short stay.
A bit basic. The internet only worked in the sitting room (even then sometimes it cut out), so watching Netflix in the other rooms is not possible. The sofa is quite old. I didn't like the cleaners turning up without warning, they would just walk into the flat without knocking.

Some things to improve- but not critical

The apartments are tidy, spacious enough for two people. but requiring cosmetic repairs.
After arriving at the apartment late in the evening, the following morning we had an unpleasant situation, because the toilet was clogged so much that we couldn't go out without a pump to fix it. and unfortunately we had to do it. also the smell in the bathroom is eerie, the sewage stinks. sound insulation is very poor, you can hear every step of the neighbor

The flat was very close to the center, that’s probably the only nice thing
The flat was dirty and very smelly, the smell from the toilet’s drain was terrible. There was mold in several part of the flat: showers, toilet and kitchen. the air conditioners were leaking water and the wall close to them was getting wet.

Apartment was visually OK but the shower upstairs was leaking down to our shower which was their dirty water. The walls are paper thin, the doors have to be banged to close so all night noise, there was what sounded like a very large rodent in-between our ceiling and upstairs floor that started running and scratching from about 7 in the evening to 6 in the morning. A very noisy area would suit younger people not older. Very central and close to everything. Supermarkets across the road

Great location, everything was within walking distance so didn’t have to worry about getting taxis anywhere. Had everything you needed within the apartment, the hosts were easy to communicate with and always got a quick response. Would definitely stay again!
