A lovely apartment in possibly the most photogenic location in Valletta, at the corner of Saint Paul and Saint Lucia streets. Everything was as described and as per the pictures in the listing. No surprises, which was appreciated. A comfortable place in a very convenient location for us to spend a week in a city we adored. A short walk to the Upper Barrakka Gardens, where the elevator deposits you at the ferry terminal for 3 cities ferries, or the fast ferry to Gozo, or where a free shuttle bus takes you to the Sliema ferry. The main bus station is also a short walk away, so getting anywhere in Malta from here is easy.
Immediately below the apartment are a number of restaurants, and a plethora of bars and restaurants are within a few minutes walk.
Because of its location it can be noisy. We found on some nights two restaurants below our apartment each had their own music playing, which was pleasant in either of the locations, but could be annoying from above. However the sound was easy to block out by closing the window and shutters - the fan or air conditioning stops it from getting stuffy. If you are a light sleeper, bring earplugs.
Ruth and Nigel were gracious and accommodating hosts, generally quick to reply to any queries, and each a font of useful information.
We enjoyed staying here, and would happily do so again -we have no hesitation in recommending.
