We have to breakdown our stay into our hosts and the apartment itself. Overall our stay was absolutely wonderful and we can't wait to come back to Malta.
Hosts:
The hosts are a 5/5! Prior to our trip Paula was so attentive and easy to get ahold of. We had an early morning flight and they did their best to accommodate our early check in request. Aaron was there to greet us and show us where to park, as well as walked us through the apartment giving us suggestions for the island as well as local restaurants. All of the restaurants he recommended were fantastic local places!
We found a few issues with lightbulbs later on our first day, and Paula quickly took care of the problem while we were out on one of our excursions. Paula and Aaron were perfect hosts and I cannot recommend them enough.
Apartment:
The apartment is a 4/5. The apartment is the perfect amount of space for 5 people and the views are amazing. The shopping center and fitness center are in close proximity, and Sliema is a great option if you want to be close to the ferry and Valetta.
We only give 4 stars however, as the furnishings aren’t quite up to the caliber as you would expect for an apartment of this quality.
Some of the furniture was looking a bit worse for wear (small tears in sofa, wobbly and broken coat rack, chips in the dining table), and should possibly be replaced/repaired soon. Also the second full bathroom doesn't have a shower curtain. This is quite common in Europe, but just have some caution when showering, as the floor gets very slippery when wet.
