PROS
—Mickael is a very friendly, helpful, and responsive host. He promptly fixed a drain that wasn’t working.
—Mickael organized easy and affordable transportation for us from the airport.
—The apartment is styled well and resembles how it looks in pictures.
—The bed was comfortable and the sleeping area was very dark and quiet.
—The location was an excellent spot to use as a home base while exploring Malta. The street is quiet but still very central.
CONS
—The shower is small (approximately 2 ft by 2 ft) and was quite difficult to use, especially when there was an exposed metal element that became dangerously hot to touch while showering.
—WiFi was unreliable and frequently stopped working.
—Though the listing includes air conditioning, the machine in the apartment was not strong enough to cool the bedroom area. The fans helped, but it wasn’t very comfortable for sleeping. Since we were only supposed to have the air conditioner on while we were in the apartment, it took many hours each night to reach a still very warm temperature.
—This may be normal for the area, but we did have to deal with a roach in the apartment while we were there.
—For us, there was no soap or shampoo provided for the shower. We didn’t realize this and ended up buying our own at a shop nearby.
—Some things in the unit were dirty; bottom corners of the shower, refrigerator shelves, shower fan, table surfaces, and floors.
