We have a great January break from the cold and wet UK. The apartment isn't huge, (a clever use of mirrors that occasionally spooked us :) ), but the ability to sit on the balcony makes up for that. It's a fascinating view over the harbour. Add to that the fact that although the street is very quiet, it is a 5 minute walk to central Valletta. Michael is a friendly and helpful host. Listen carefully to his recommendations on where to eat and what to see.
