"Excellent teaching; facilities occasionally a bit over-crowded"

Cecilia Kinross, student from Australia

Our teacher, Alice, was excellent. She knew her craft, was always lively and cheerful and made sure all the students were engaged.

The location was fine as my accommodation was on east side of Malaga as well. Close to the beach and not too far from shops and restaurants.

I think tea and coffee should be provided during the breaks, even if charged for, as there were no other facilities close by. There was often a queue for the toilets, so this needs to be remedied.

I enjoyed the walking tour. I think a tour by bus could be offered as well. Otherwise I organised my own activities.

Accomodation was barely acceptable standard. The location was fine, but the room was tiny and the only window opened into the kitchen! There was a curtain, but still no barrier from the noise. There was a tiny skylight, but the place was cramped and airless. The good news is that the host Maria Theresa was friendly and very helpful. She lent me her bus pass as they seem to be impossible to buy on a Sunday! She was very chatty and even accompanied me on my visit to the Music Museum.
