Hotel Costa Málaga (Adults Recommended) by Pierre & Vacances
Nice room And comfortable But very warm in the room, and very noisy - due to the pipes/plumbing you could hear loud noise through the bathroom everytime people we’re flushing toilets, using bathroom in other rooms. It was audible throughout the room and woke me up on several occasions

Flex Malaga City Center
The room was very small for 2 people with little storage area. However it was clean and cared for. The Sheraton lacked evening facilities eg bar and was remote from other such facilities, very disappointing
