Minimal Prinzip bei Ausstattung und Frühstück
Pros:

Die Lage ist super, einmal über die Brücke und schon ist man in der Innenstadt.
Parkplätze im Parkhaus unterm Hotel, zum fairen Preis.
Bett war bequem und Badezimmer war sauber.

Cons:

Von zwei Fahrstühlen war einer kaputt und der andere machte Geräusche als wenn es hier auch nicht mehr lange dauert. Auf unserer gesamten Andalusien-Reise hatten wir hier das mit Abstand schlechteste Frühstück.

Dobra baza wypadowa do zwiedzenia Malagi
Pros:

Dobra lokalizacja hotelu. Blisko do centrum, żeby pozwiedzać. Typowy hotel Ibis budget. Parking podziemny płatny dodatkowo 11,50 euro/ dzień.

Cons:

Podczas pobytu jedna z dwóch wind nie działała, więc trochę słabo na tak duży obiekt. Cena trochę wysoka jak za 1 noc.
