"Breakfast was good. Person en charged very nice and kind everyday. We request check out but the lady in reception denied it. We offered to pay the extra time but we have to sit in the reception until 3 pm. The same receptionist try to click us out again around 2 pm calling to a taxi. It was really rude. We didn’t want to stay in this hotel again. There are great hotels around where we can stayed."

"Reception was well handled. Room was fine. Comfortable bed. Good shower. Adequate room for clothes. Large and airy room. Location very good. Restaurants in large numbers and access to historical sites and the port. Only large problem was the breakfast. This needs a thorough review. The staff were overwhelmed and overworked. Resources ran out and eg bowls not replaced promptly. Too many customers at once? Mind you the customers were not helpful. Maybe start to charge for breakfast to limit numbers? Or find some way of regulating in flow? Overall good value for money."

"Fantastic Stay in the Heart of Málaga! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We absolutely loved our stay at Apartamentos Málaga Premium – Calle San Telmo Thyssen Museum! The apartment was exceptionally clean, spacious, and perfect for two people. The bed was very comfortable, with lovely pillows and fresh, clean sheets, making it easy to get a good night's sleep. The shower room was also generously sized and spacious. The location is unbeatable! Everything is within aa 5–10-minute walk, making it the perfect base for exploring Málaga. The surrounding restaurant scene is absolutely buzzing, with so many fantastic options to choose from. There simply aren't enough meals in a day to try all the wonderful restaurants nearby!And don't miss the 4th floor for afternoon drinks—it's a lovely spot to unwind after a day of exploring. From the cleanliness and comfort to the fantastic location and vibrant food scene, this place exceeded our expectations. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Málaga. A big shout out to Hugo, the reception guy. Very pleasant and helpful."
