So, overall great experience. The hosts were really welcoming and accommodating, they gave us all the support and information we needed about the neighborhood and also were sweet enough to give us some DVDs for 1 rainy evening (huge collection of DVDs). Flat location - superb, close to shops/bars/cafes, 2 min walk away from major bus hub and Valetta ferry. Regardless of proximity, the area itself was authentic and quite. Flat - beautifully decorated, tall ceiling, Maltese accents, great cleanliness. Highly recommended!
