Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

RomaniaLittle things that can make big differences like the creaking of the bathroom door or the lack of response from the property.
The location is very close to the beach and there are lots of restaurants on the seashore. Easy access to the bus. Nice room decoration.

DenmarkThere could be a better instruction to where to find the key - however no problem - as it was easy to call the administrators and get help (so remember the phone number when you go there). We would have liked 2 pars of keys. From the street the place does not look that nice, however when you come to the back side it is ok. There were no real storage space for our clothe, and there was trafic noice during rush hour, when sitting at the terrasse.
We liked the apartment at second flor- American Apartment style (one big room with kitchen and eating place in one end, a very comfortable big sofa and a big TV screen and a small desk in the middle, and a double bed in the other end, where the door to the terrasse with a sofa and a sofa table was). A very nice bathroom. Many windows with nice shutters. High ceiling with nice indirect light and other nice details on the walls. Our apartment was the biggest of 4. There was a new elevator. The Supermarked 10 minutes from the apartment. The beach and cafes and restaurants 5-10 minues away. 15 minutes by buss to central Malaga.

NetherlandsBit of a personal preference - I’m 1.82 cm so found the bed and bathroom rather small.
Very tastefully decorated, loved the terrace, all the amenities, onsite parking, all toped by the host’s availability and hospitality. The apartment allows to enjoy a more residential area of Malaga, away from the hustle of downtown. There’s a supermarket 5 mins away, plenty restaurants, grocery options and a lovely ice cream place just mins walking.

GermanyQuite noisy, hard to close the door quietly. Door in front was closed so we needed to find the back entrance. Only a small table in front of the couch, so not optimal for eating.
Nice location only two blocks from the beach. Bus stop also close to the property to reach the city.

United KingdomThe location is quite noisy as it is right on a busy main road and there is also a kindergarten on the ground floor. Inside with the air-conditioning on you don't hear the outside noise, but with doors/windows open or sitting outside its very noticable. The kettle is plugged in inside a cupboard which seems a little unsafe (steam and electrics don't mix).
The apartment was a little smaller than it looked in the photos, but had everything we needed. Nice big TV, sofa and very comfortable bed. The bathrooom is fine, and the shower is very powerful and a nice big enclosure. Good size terrace outside. Location is excellent - short stroll to the local beach bars and restaurants, or a little further to El Palo, or the the Port and Malaga Old Town. Bus service is excellent (there's a stop right outside) and local cabs and ubers are easy to find and good value.

United KingdomSimple, and spacious accomodation. All you needed. It had a great balcony with lots of sun, very relaxing. Also, it is 5 minutes from the beach, where lots of lovely restaurants are. We walked into town via the beach, really nice long walk. About an hour to walk, or you can get a quick ride in a taxi. The owner gave us a huge list of recommendations for food and sights to see. Really nice recommendations, of which we tried quite a few! Thank you!

GermanyThe street Avenida Juan Sebastian is quite busy during daytime so opening the window was not on. With the window closed, it was very quiet. Parking is, in my opinion, very expensive (€18 a day) so I decided not to use the service. It was possible for me, however, to find parking spots in the neighbouring area every day. One just needs to be patient (and not in a hurry).
The room was nice and the staff reacted super quickly to any queries sent to them via email. I have not met anyone in person. On the other hand, it wasn't necessary. Everything worked out perfectly well.

PolandThe disadvantage was an unpleasant smell from the air conditioning, the lack of a hanger for outerwear at the door and a very small wardrobe, which is partly through the iron and ironing board.
Everything was very fine. Very nice interior – just like in the pictures in booking. Good location. The very nice host allowed us to leave the apartment a little later.

United KingdomThere is nothing for me to complain about. I enjoyed my stay both times and have nothing negative to say.
I have stayed in the same apartment twice now. Enjoy the decore, and balcony, and the apartment is fitted with everything that you might need (dishwasher, washing machine, etc). There is an elevator up to the flats which are very convenient if you are carrying many things or have mobility issues. The host is lovely and very responsive. If you are like me and enjoy walking you will have a beautiful walk along the waterfront when going into the city center. There are also plenty of bus connections if you prefer transport.

United KingdomThe terrace is noisy. The road is not super busy but there is a steady flow of traffic all day. It is also above a nursery which can be quite noisy with the kids. Although the kitchen was equipped with all equipment for cooking etc it would have been nice to have basic stuff like oil and salt/pepper etc rather than have to buy and leave as it felt like a waste (to note there is tea/coffee etc). Not dealbreakers but something to bear in mind.
The apartment was small but perfect for a single person. It was clean and modern and everything was working as needed. The bed was so comfortable I didn’t want to get up most mornings! The location was great. Super close to the beach with lots of restaurant options or a 15 min cycle (with Dott bike) into the centre of Malaga. Perfect for what I wanted for my trip. Check in easy and the host was really helpful with lots of information of where to go and eat during my stay. Thanks so much!

United KingdomThe property was advertised as a luxury apartment but that was an overstatement. There were no instructions how to use some of the kitchen equipment. There were windows in the bathroom which could not be opened. No air con so very hot and stuffy.
There was a bus stop near the apartment which would take to the centre of Malaga, which was a plus.
