The apartment was as advertised. The bedroom with a large terrace with a view of a marina. The apartment size was great. The location is good as there are a lot of buses that stop near the apartment and they go to all directions on the island. The air conditioning worked well and there were independent units in each of the bedrooms and living room.

The apartment needs a bit of maintenance. The toilet in one of the bathrooms did not flush so could not be used. Honestly I didn't think to call Franco about it. Im sure he would have fixed it. It did work initially so I don't know what went wrong but the tank did not fill with water.it seemed that the water was turned off. The shower doors in the ensuite bathroom need to be replaced. Only after coming off the tracks and with a lot of work the doors ultimately did close. The main entrance to the building is not lit and the first night not seeing the step I actually fell and broke the key.
The apartment needs a serious overall cleaning. The clothes washer detergent compartment was full of old soap. Even after cleaning out as much as was possible some old soap remained and our clean clothes had a bit of an odor.

Franco arranged car and driver from the ferry terminal to the apartment. The driver was over one hour late. I don't know how that happened but it did. After our experiences with island cabs the delay seems normal but if prearranged they are usually pretty good with arrival times.

Probably the most dangerous problem is the hot water. It is scalding hot and due to the size of the shower it is very easy to hit the tap that adjusts the water temperature. It really needs an anti scald mixing valve in the plumbing line that would fix this really dangerous problem. A child could easily get scalded.

With only a little bit of work this could be a really great apartment.

Franco was very good about check out time. He said we could check out any time on our last day.
I'm sure that Franco wants his guestson to be comfortable and enjoy their experience in Malta and he was very
