I would like to be (as) short (as possible) but accurate in the review! Value for the price was good considering it was half the price of a hotel, and the apartment is in a perfect place, right near the beach and restaurants, near St. Julien. Amed was very friendly and helpful.
The best part about the room is the air conditioner, it was so hot in Malta the air conditioner was really necessary!
However, I would say Amed doesn‘t have a lot of experience with airbnb and he also told us he used to have his friends stay at the room. The whole stay was kinda like we were his friends and not actally paying customers who booked through airbnb. I guess this can be a plus for some people but also not ok for some people so I just wanted to share.
As far as the amenities go, it‘s maybe important for some people to know that the parking isn‘t on premises, it is actually regular parking on the street, which is surprisingly free in Malta, but it can sometimes be hard to find parking, especially in the evening. The hot tub is actually just a regular tub, that is really used for showering, so I thought this could be important for some people, even though we didn‘t plan on using a hot tub anyway. The terrace in the room is useful for laundry but there are no chairs or table, so it can‘t be used to sit outside. There is a terrace in the shared living room though, but we didn‘t feel like sitting there.
I have also seen some other comments to the cleanliness of the appartment and must say that was the only negative for us, there was a broom in the hallway and I did use it to clean our room, but the rest of the appartment was pretty dusty so I recommend everyone to bring house slippers which we forgot. Walking barefoot wasn’t really comfortable. The bathroom was clean though, which was the most important thing for us. The bathtub was leaking, but Amed said we shouldn‘t worry about it, so we would just pick up water if there was some, but it didn‘t get in the way of showering.
Another positive thing was, that even though there were 5 people at the apartment, including us, the bathroom was free anytime I needed it, so that meant a lot since I am pregnant!
I hope you all find my review helpful!
All in all we would probably book again because of the price, and since we had peace in our room, but we would come better prepared haha!
