Nice and quiet location, the room unfortunately very small and with no ventilation nor heating in the bathroom, so after a shower the entire bathroom was wet and slippery for the rest of our stay

Property managers were so helpful and easy to contact when I couldn’t find my email with the information I needed since we arrived so late on our flight. Super clean, view was amazing from every part of the city! I felt immersed in the community & the walkability of Mijas is insane! I couldn’t recommend this hotel enough.
