The apartment was in a great location, in the heart of Valletta. It was as it appears in the listing and was very clean. Luigi who was looking after the apartment in Michael's absence and was very welcoming and extremely helpful upon arrival providing maps, bus timetables, tips of places to go. He even provided bread, tea and fresh coffee, which after our early morning flight was much appreciated! He even passed by the flat a few times to check all was ok, but my friend and I were out exploring the island each time!

Although the apartment doesn't have a balcony or garden, don't let this put you off as the Upper Barrakka gardens are around the corner and my friend and I often chilled there in the evenings.
