"Excellent location for walking into centre ,and the port, great location for access to train station. Excellent facilities for a city hotel. Although the pool was small and limited amount of sun beds I think this is due to the time of year. Lovely to have an outdoor pool in a city hotel as they are usually indoors. Highly recommend for a shake break or visit to Malaga. Would definately return"
