OK apart from the cockroaches
I would have given this property four stars, its quite spacious and fairly comfortable with good amenities which could be improved by the provision of an iron and Wifi. Its close to many beaches, convenient for Malaga and near the main road network.
However, we soon started seeing cockroaches ( cucarachas; les cafards) in the kitchen, we must have killed 30 or more adults and juveniles but they just kept coming. Out of courtesy to the owner I sent the following email:
"Hi Christine,
I thought you would want me to let you know that we have regularly seen cockroaches in the kitchen, particularly coming from the gap between the worktop and dishwasher.
I see from a website that Spanish Health authorities predicted earlier in the year that because of the wet springtime it was likely there would be an increase in infestations.
We are keeping all food in the fridge or covered. "
I wasn't complaining, just making her aware of the problem so she could put remedial action in place given that they are notoriously difficult to get rid of once they get established.
I got no reply to my email, not a 'sorry to hear this' or 'thank you for letting me know, we'll see to it'. Just nothing.
So in fairness to other potential renters of this property I have to make them aware that this could be a potential problem.
