Maria was extremely responsive to our check in and check out needs because of our late flight arrival and departures. Plus, she had given us information on Valetta happenings while we were there. We took the X7 bus as she suggested into town from the airport, cheap, easy and convenient. (Where X buses stops is bus stop 16, which is located at the entrance of the Triton Fountain circle, not at the exit where stops 1 -15 are located). Walk through town on the main street Repubblika until you can turn left on Old Theatre Street. This will avoid having to drag suitcases up any hills. She had Sabrina met us and check us into the apartment. Check-in was fast and easy plus she left a very detailed information brochure about Valetta and use of the apartment appliances. Sabrina suggested eating at Nenu the Artisan Baker that evening after check-in. It was very good. The apartment was as depicted and the wifi worked well. l We enjoyed the small patio for happy hours and were treated to a bell serenade at 1923 every evening from the Carmelite Church across the street. The church dome could be seen from every high spot on the island so it was interesting to be able see exactly where we were in staying. We used buses for the week we were there. The 6 euro weekly bus pass is impossible to beat, just keep in mind some buses are hourly and not exactly prompt. Hedge your travel time. We were on bus 52 to Dingli, the bus stopped after Rabbat, changed his number to 53, and put us off to catch the next one. Just the way it is.
