Zak delivered exactly what he promised+ helped by arranging an airport pickup for 20E's for arrival and departure.We enjoyed living in a working class local neighborhood and meeting some of the neighbors.A real taste of what it is like to live in Malta.5 to 15 minute(uphill) walk to the tourist pedestrian streets of Valletta and the main attractions or the bus station.One of best equipped kitchens ever with a washer-cloths line in one of the balconies-and a full sized new refrigerator freezer.Excellent wifi-Zak's own network.Digital TV with English stations and Net-flicks.Loved the old sandstone walls and high beamed ceilings but with modern lighting.Local family bakery around corner to the left,down in a cellar,bought fresh goodies every day.Around corner to the right and down a bit, Lillie's mini mart for everything you need(except meat)The local ladies shop every day so that was fun too. English widely spoken and everyone was helpful and friendly.Adequate king bed with extra pillows.We would happily stay here again.Two small things to note about this completely renovated historical building.1. It has a door that opens right on the street which is one way, narrow and one of the main ways into the old city from the Selina ferry, which is three blocks down and one over.It is busy with cars and people after every ferry and a bit noisy and congested,quiets down between 9PM and 6AM but be care full going in and out.2.There are 27 steps up a twisting narrow stone stair case to the apartment.My 71 year old wife managed(good iron handrails, and I had to take my time getting the luggage up and down but you have to be able to cope to stay here.(The bath room is a little tight-water is scarce on Malta,most is from a de-sal plant so the pressure is only adequate)Don't be put off by your first impression of the street-the people are great and the fully modern apartment gives an authentic travel experience which we enjoyed very much. Zak was a pleasure to deal with,promptly replied and couldn't have been more helpful and the lady who came to clean as we were leaving used her phone and helped us connect with the cab who was having a hard time finding a place to park and pick us up.The unit is fairly priced and we thought it was an excellent value for money.Recommended.
