While we never actually met Franco face to face - we had good communications in advance - he organized a driver to meet us at the airport (18euro paid to the driver) which was handy as we arrived just before midnight - the driver gave us a the keys and a quick tour of the apartment.

The apartment is really central and handy for anything in Valletta - only a two minute walk from the main street and not much more than 5 minutes from the main bus station. We were there for five days in mid-January and the weather was nice - not too warm, not too cold, I never wore my coat outside, just a light jacket. There was slight chill in the air in the evenings and first thing in the morning and the heater in the apartment was quick and effective. Having an equipped kitchen gave us good flexibility. Surprisingly for us there were few grocery shops around - but luckily there was a small one nearby! The free wifi in the flat was great to look up this and that, e.g. the bus timetable or the history of the Knights etc! :-) There are a couple of good restaurants on the same street - Legligin was our favourite!

Our holiday in Valletta was a great success and I would recommend this apartment! Franco, thanks for a great apartment!
