Lovely apartment, great location.
This small apartment is nicely furnished, clean, and well located on the Marsaskala Harbor. As with all of Malta, it is a safe area to walk at any time. The neighborhood is more locals than tourists. I loved getting to know some of my neighbors.
Everything you need to prepare, serve, and store meals are available in the kitchen. There are loads of restaurants steps away. Two small markets are within 2-blocks, with a large supermarket a 10-minute walk. A fishmonger comes to the harborfront most mornings.
It was easy to explore other parts of the island via bus or an occasional taxi. Busses frequent this neighboorhood and have numerous stops. A bus to Valletta will take about 45-minutes but doesn't require a change. A taxi to the airport is about 13 Euro with Ecabs.
There is a lovely promenade around the bay for walking, running, or strolling.
The apartment has a little balcony overlooking the playground and harbor. It's a great place to people watch. I enjoyed it for sunrise over the harbor each morning with a cup of tea.
BE ADVISED - This place is NOT quiet. Traffic noise from the street can be deafening between 6 AM and 10 PM. It drove me nuts and sent me to the bedroom for a reprieve from busses (about every 10-minutes), lories, motorcycles, and autos. The apartment fronts on one of the busiest streets in Marsaskala. A set of sound dampening drapes could help this problem.
On the backside of the apartment, noise from the children's playground directly below is loud, but I didn't mind the sounds of children playing.
I loved the location and enjoyed my 2-week stay in the clean, modern lodging. I lived like a local, shopping, and preparing most of my meals. When I ate out, I found reasonable prices for food and libations in the numerous, friendly sidewalk cafes.
