Irina's apartment was just as described. Her assistant Joanna met us at the door and offered to help us carry our bags up the tricky stair case (make sure you hold on to the railing) she gave us information about the surrounding area, busses, ferries and restaurants. She was always available to answer any questions we had about anything and everything and did it in a very timely manner. The shopping mall is only a 5 min walk, which also included a grocery store, definitely came in handy for days when we wanted to cook; plenty of amazing restaurants within walking distance. The walk to the seafront is a short one, go a little further out and you'll find others laying on the rocks soaking up the sun. Would definitely recommend this space for those who want to experience being a local in Malta.
