This appartment is everything it says it is and more. It is very spacious and very convenient for everything. It has a beautiful view from the balcony and is very peaceful with a table and plenty of chairs. There are bars and restaurants very close by and we had lovely tapas in a small spanish bar a few paces from the appartment. The air conditioning unit was brilliant and 1 euro was enough to take the chill off the appartment in the early morning and late evening. The buses are literally just accross the road making visits to Mijas etc very easy and cheap. We also used the train station which is about a 10 or 15 mins walk uphill but still a nice walk and you if dont fancy the walk for 4 or 5 euros a taxi will take you there. I would thoroughly recommend this appartment as it is very central yet quiet. |
