Marina Apartment

Lounge furniture/sofa bed looks clean enough visually but could benefit from a deep clean as had strong lingering body odours from previous guests. Really could not have slept on this. Bedroom was good and mattress and sheets were clean as were the towels and the washing machine was a bonus as we were able to keep the towels in a clean and fragrant condition. I am being picky when I say the apartment could do with a paint job, again not dirty buy not decorated to a standard demanding the rental price. Kitchen was great and although small had every necessary amenity available, home from home. The handy serving hatch made life easy for transporting food etc. to the dining table. Be aware that the apartment is up 2 fairly long flights of stairs and although the building has a lift, this was not in operation and looked as though it wouldn't be anytime soon. The advertised sea view was somewhat misleading, as it was only visible through a gap in the buildings from a compact balcony where the cleaning equipment was kept with the large and very efficient water boiler. Location was the winner though as the apartment is surrounded by dozens of bars and restaurants of every different variety and the fantastic beach with it's busy promenade walk all the way to Torremolinos is literally 20 metres away. A taxi rank with an abundance of taxis is available only a couple of hundred yards away with reasonably priced fares to the many sights. Communication by email through Booking.com was excellent. Any queries were answered almost immediately and everything was straightforward. We requested an early arrival access and this was granted without fuss and we were met at the door to the building by Ronald who showed us to the apartment and handed over the keys. Finally, security was very good as there are two very secure steel outer access doors/gates that are operated by key. All in all the apartment was good and I would recommend it for access to the beautiful Marina.

I couldn’t fault this accommodation.
