Wonderful: This place is a gem. The property is a beautiful, fully renovated heritage property, full of character. It has six feet thick walls and beautiful high ceilings. It has been renovated and decorated with taste and careful thought about what travellers require. Powerpoints just where you want them, sensible placement of light switches, great use of the natural light, coffee maker, washing machine etc. - all the comforts of home. We loved it. You feel you are truly part of the history of Malta but with modern conveniences.
The property is located right in the centre of town, easy walking distance to everything, but on a quiet street. There was a big noisy religious festival on when we were there but the house was peaceful and quiet thanks to six feet thick walls and the great location. The property is air conditioned but is naturally cool and comfortable due to the thick walls. We were there during the lucifer heat wave and the property was a cool oasis from the heat wave.
Valetta has tons of things to do, and there is a transport hub just outside the city, about 5 minutes walk from the property. Tons of great restaurants and a convenience store just around the corner.
Mark and Christine were wonderful hosts. They are locals and their suggestions about things to do and see and their insights about local life were excellent.
Stay at this property, you will love it. Also dont miss the hypogeum, a huge prehistoric underground complex about 15 minutes bus ride away from Valetta. You have to book ahead many months but it is worth it, truly one of the most amazing places we have seen in our travels.
We would not hesitate to come back to this lovely property.
