Residence Rouge is a great place, for those of You who want to explore Valetta and feel the unique character of this old city. The apartment is very clean and comfortable. You will find grocery just around the corner. We spent there one week at the end of june. If you are concerned about the lack of aircondition i can only say that it is not necessary. The outside temperature was about 28°C but suprisingly the temperature inside the apartement wasn't too high. The maltese balcony has made its job :), if You leave the windows open the air will circulate through the room. To sum up Clare and Alan are very hospitable and their place is one of the best in Malta :).
