This place is perfect for first-time visitors to Malta as it is close to Valletta, the first and foremost place to visit. Plus, it is very close to the all-important bus terminus for travelling to other parts of the island.
Valletta is full of great places to visit including St John's Co-Cathedral, National Museum of Archaeology, Fort St Elmo and more.
The ferry to Sliema is also close by.
With a small grocery store and some shops within minutes, it's easy to get quick meals and stock up on supplies. A walk into Valletta gets you a nice variety of nice restaurants.
The air-conditioning is cold and keeps the heat away.
Melvin loves Malta and happily answers all questions. Be sure to ask him for tips and advice.
The neighborhood is safe at night and we never felt threatened when we returned late at night.
