Location - the apartment location is close to transport, shops, restaurants and cafes. Despite this, it is still nice and quiet in the apartment itself.
Room - the room has a double bed, a big wardrobe, a safe, a kettle and a television. As we had forgotten, we were pleased when we arrived in the room to find plug converters (they use the British plugs in Malta) so we could charge our phones. There was a heater in the room, but at times, this was not enough as it was quite cold as it was early January. However, I think from what I understood, it is not normally that cold in Malta. It is a tiled floor, so I would suggest bringing some slippers so your feet don't get cold.
Bathroom - the bathroom is very clean. Amine also communicated with us regularly, asking if the cleaning lady should change the towels. This was great, as with the cold weather, our towels did not dry quickly. Toiletries are simple - shampoo, shower gel, hand soap and plenty of toilet paper. However, for January, I recommend also placing a small heater in there, as it could be quite cold.
Shared kitchen - the kitchen has everything you need if you wish to cook during your stay - a stove top, a fridge and an oven. There is also plenty of tea and coffee. Furthermore, if it had been warmer, there is a nice little sitting area that you can reach via the kitchen door.
Check-in and communication - despite arriving at the airport late, our check-in and arrival was smooth. Amine had recommended taking a taxi to the apartment, which was 20 Euros (fixed rate). It is not far from the airport at all, however, even though I gave the address in Maltese, the taxi driver's GPS took as further than needed. We had to reverse down the narrow street, looking for the right door. Otherwise, we arrived, using all the information Amine had supplied, without any drama, which was needed, as it was quite late.
It was definitely a great place to base ourselves for our week-long stay. It is not far at all from all the main towns we wanted to visit and it was a welcoming retreat after all a long day of exploring. Thank you Amine for making our stay as comfortable and easy as possible.
