Guest Reviews

• Linda (10/5): Very central, everything you need. - Lovely stylish furnishings and clean apartment. Very central with the cathedral just at the end of the road. Good sound proofing once the doors were closed. Maps and recommendations left for our use.Excellent communication with the owner who was very helpful. Nothing
• Eleonora (8/5): Posizione fantastica - Camera suggestiva e tutto l’occorrente per un soggiorno confortevole. In pienissimo centro ma con le finestre chiuse non si sentiva nulla. Posizione fantastica. Uniche due pecche, ogni sera trovavamo qualche piccolo scarafaggio in stanza e il check in é stato un po’ complicato dato che il link non funzionava.
• Matej (9/5): -
• Simone Jacopo (10/5): Magica Libreria! - Posizione ottimale, si raggiunge facilmente a piedi sia il museo di Picasso che la spiaggia. Ottimi bar/ristoranti nei dintorni, anche senza glutine. nonostante la movida serale, le finestre sono belle spesse e l’appartamento è praticamente insonorizzato. La camera con la libreria è magica, piena non solo di libri ma di storia. Ci siamo sentiti come a casa.
• Gaynor (10/5): We love Malaga city & this accommodation was perfect for being right in the thick of it. - Location is great, right in the heart of the city. Bed was a little hard, but absolutely everything else was great!
• Laine (9/5): Great location - We spent Christmas and New Year in this apartment in a great location. All the restaurants are nearby, Christmas street is very close and the cathedral is nearby. The apartment is suitable for a couple, we didn't cook there, we just made breakfast sometimes. Breakfast supplies were conveniently available 150 m from the apartment at Carrefour Express. Lovely bedroom with a comfortable bed, it was nice to watch the street life from the small balconies. Clean rooms. Even though there was life on the street at night, the noise didn't come inside (tight windows). For a two week stay a vacuum cleaner would have been good
• Yeray Miguel (7/5): Ubicación 10 solo para dos personas - Ubicación El sofa cama por llamarlo de alguna manera. No esta en condiciones de ser usado como cama.
• Greg (7/5): Susana was fabulous lady, very responsive and kind - Location Bedroom too dark, kitchen very small Can be noisy at 4 am due to Spanish night life.
• Joanne (9/5): - Great location! The sofa bed wasnt super comfy.
• Carlos (9/5): -
• Sandra (9/5): Wspaniała lokalizacja, gorąco polecam! -
• Mina (5/5): Bisschen Besserungen nötig aber ansonsten Top - Die lage Es war sehr schmutzig, das Zimmer war nicht auf 4 Personen vorbereitet, obwohl dies angegeben wurde, auf dem Schlafsofa hatte es Haare und Sand. Es gab keinen Schwamm zum Geschirr waschen hnd meiner Meinung bach fehlt auf ein Staubsauger für den Sand (würde es auch für das Personal im Nachhinein einfacher machen) Ansonsten gutes Airbnb
• Piotr (9/5): - Bardzo ładne mieszkanie, dobra klimatyzacja, byłem z kolegą więc mogliśmy rozłożyć łóżko w salonie i każdy miał własną sypialnię z klimatyzacją. W kuchni akcesoria raczej dla mniej gotujących, ale jest wszystko czego potrzeba, okna zadziwiająco szczelne, sprzętów do sprzatania wystarczająco - choć chyba nie używa się w Hiszpanii gąbek do zmywania naczyń 🙃 gospodyni bardzo miła, nieinwazyjna, pomocna. Podsumowując- apartament idealny dla par, ale jeśli jesteś we dwójkę jako koledzy to też da się całkiem komfortowo mieszkać ✊🏼 palacze mogą korzystać z balkonu, natomiast jest on raczej mały- bardziej do stania i obserwowania tętniącej życiem ulicy 😎
• Artur (6/5): :( - The location. The apartment was not very clean. The dishes were dirty, the bookshelves were dusty, and the sofa where the children were supposed to sleep was not prepared—we had to make it ourselves. The pillows were uncomfortable.
• Vera Lucia (10/5): -
• Dana (10/5): Exceptional - Wonderful location and easy to follow check in instructions!
• Susan (9/5): Highly recommend - The location is excellent. Don't be put off because of noise concerns... The double or triple or whatever they are windows has the place almost silent! Loved sitting at the balcony having a wee drink before bed. Could do with some softer pillows but that's just personal preference.
• Dymond (8/5): Ideal for a break in Malaga! - The location was fab - right in the middle of the old town. And we couldn't get lost as we were within 100m of the cathedral! The apartment was very clean and comfortable. The host was easy to get hold of. We thought there was a terrace, which would have been lovely. However, it had been lost in translation - there were 3 balconies. The host agreed to check this.
• Brendan (8/5): Very good -
• Seema (9/5): Excellent property, wonderful stay - The location was the best part, it is located right in the middle of the restaurant and Bar area, a few steps from the Cathedral. Totally soundproof when windows are properly shut. This place is walking distance to the marina, shops etc. The apartment itself is spacious, beautiful, clean and fully functional, overlooking a main artery street. It is also very safe as it takes three sets of keys to get in. Susana, our contact, was wonderful. She was extremely responsive and very helpful via this portal, though we never had an opportunity to meet her. Everything was great. The pillows were a bit bulky and hard for us but not too bad.
• Tal (9/5): Superb -
• Malcolm (8/5): Very good -
• Panagiotis (4/5): Perfect location, nice cozy apartment in the historic center - Very nice apartment, fantastic location, close to everything you want to see in the historic center The apartment was not clean. Noisy street as there are restaurants & bars arround it, but this is part of the charm.
• Jose (9/5): Superb -
• Faz (10/5): Apartmento Itaca is a fantastic choice for travelers! The host, Susan, provides excellent customer service, ensuring a w -
• Morten (8/5): Very good - The apartment was in very good conditions. Ideal location for a holiday. Never liked shared duvees -
• Michael (8/5): Very good - Great place. Good location. The door locks were a real pain. Update keys or better yet, go digital like Nuki. Ordering groceries and food delivery was a problem because the buzzer didn't always unlock the door in the street.
• Roberto (7/5): In a very good location, near all the tourist attractions - Very good location, in the center of the city. It allows one to visit most of the tourist attractions of Malaga. The kitchen is well equipped, the television has many channels. The landlord tried to meet all of our needs (being a family with 2 grown children we had quite a few). It's on a pedestrian street, and the background noise from the crowded restaurants cannot be heard if the windows are closed. In May with 21°-23° outside, with the sun shining, we used air conditioning during the day and it worked very well. Otherwise during the night with the windows closed it was not needed. The bus stop and tourist info are a 5 minute walk from the apartment to "Plaza de la Marina". If the weather is good the Airport bus "A" is the cheapest way to reach this place. During the night and early morning sometimes drunken youth in the streets will be making noises that will be heard even through the well insulated windows; The bed was somewhat uncomfortable; The apartment is barely big enough for a family of four and the bathroom is definitely small; It's a 25 minute walk to reach the beaches and the port; difficult if you plan on bringing all the beach equipment with you. Some tips for frugal eating: Avoid the pricey restaurants around the area. And if you want to go shopping for groceries, take a backpack and walk those 10 minutes to the big discounters, like LIDL and ALDI... The small supermarkets in the center of the city are just not worth it.
• Alan (4/5): A lovely apartment but evidence of cost-cutting make for an unpleasant experience - Beautiful building. Nicely decorated. Fantastic location. Very central. Good soundproofing. Great to have a washing machine. The one thing that really let this property down (and it really soured our stay) was that the owner has had devices installed to save on air conditioning costs, which are controlled remotely. On arrival, the air conditioning was set to “hot” and Susana said she would change it to “cold” from her phone. I messaged her a few hours later to remind her as we were quite literally sweating and she said she couldn’t manage to change it on her phone but she had contacted the company that installed the devices and promised we would have air conditioning that day. When I found myself having to contact her again that night because she hadn’t provided an update, she was extremely rude and told me I could contact her as often as I wanted but she was waiting for the company to get back to her. It was not until I asked booking.com to intervene and request the physical remote controls for the air conditioning from Susana that the matter was resolved, albeit the next day. We didn’t sleep at all that first night because of the heat. One cannot open the windows because it is so noisy outside in the street. It was torture. Susana left a token bottle of wine with the remotes by way of an apparent apology (most likely because we involved booking.com), although it seemed like more of an insult, which we left behind for her. Simply put, the property should not be advertised as having air conditioning when it has restrictive smart controls installed by a greedy owner. At €152 per night one would expect unrestricted air conditioning and to be helped by someone with basic manners. The smart controls do not feature in any of the pictures of the property so it is obvious they weren’t always there but when the air conditioning first came on there was an initial foul smell, suggesting it hadn’t been on for quite some time. The bed was extremely uncomfortable - our backs/sides were both sore after 3 nights so definitely not suitable for longer stays.
• Paul (6/5): Pleasant - Lovely place great area and very clean Bed was very uncomfortable
• Lucy (8/5): Very good -
• Elaine (9/5): Superb -
• Zoltan (10/5): Beautiful apartment in centre of historic district - Susana greeted us on arrival and made us welcome. She swept open the shutters and opened the balcony doors. The light shone inside, and a gentle breeze swept into the apartment. Every room was perfectly clean and in good repair. The apartment is elegantly furnished and very comfortable. A lovely place to spend time in the historic area of Malaga.
