Cozy, quirky yet modern hotel in central Malaga
Pros:

Great location just off the main tourist streets in central Malaga. Cozy room with a quirky design

Cons:

I had a single room, which had everything I needed for a night, though it was very small and a bit dark.

Pros:

Czystość pokoju jak najbardziej w porządku. Na 1-2 noce OK.

Cons:

Pokój był bardzo mały (brak oddzielenia pokoju od łazienki drzwiami), a patio jako dodatek do pokoju (niby okno) po wyjściu na nie 5 m w górę omurowane z każdej strony (światło słoneczne nie docierało).

Todo muy bien
Pros:

El personal es muy agradable, las camas son muy cómodas y las instalaciones muy limpias

Cons:

Se nota que es una reforma y las habitaciones son algo pequeñas, y las escaleras un poco incómodas. Pero hay ascensor, no es un problema.
La iluminación del baño es insuficiente.
Había mucha luz natural y entonces no hubo problema, pero íbamos de boda y si hubiera sido de noche, imposible maquillarte
