Nice location, nice apartment
The great: Lots of space in this rental. Four bedrooms, 2 baths. Comfortable beds and pillows. Plenty of plates and silverware in the kitchen. A comfy sitting area.
The good: The neighborhood is pretty good. Felt fine to walk around, plenty of restaurants. Super easy to walk to either the historic Malaga section or waterfront. Very easy to get to public transit. Check-in requires going to office first to pick up key, but it was easy.
The less good: The apartment is in a building with mainly businesses? So, from Friday to Sunday there was no lighting in the first floor of the building. You come in-- pitch black. No safety lights or even motion-detecting.
Also, this is a loud location. Busy street was expected. However, three of the bedrooms are located overlooking the trash bins, which it may be important to note that people empty large amounts of wine bottles into at all hours. That was a surprise that we wouldn't have thought of from looking at the location.
The much less good: The loudness might not have been apparent, except that the air didn't work, so we had to open the windows.We let the property manager know and they sent someone to fix it. That took a better part of a morning and could not be fixed. The property manager texted they would drop off fans. They did not. This meant either be too hot or open windows and let bugs and noise in. For as nice as the apartment is, this made it a very uncomfortable stay.
