Franco arranged for a taxi to pick me up at 1am and give me the key. I truly appreciated the effort to accommodate me at such an odd time.
The place has everything one needs to cook, if needed, wash clothes, refrigerate food, etc. I liked the fact that plenty of detergents and cleaning products were available and the place was also very clean.
The terrace is very pretty and welcoming, although I did not get a chance to use it much.
The neighborhood is quieter than the very touristic areas of Valletta such as Rebublika Street or the old port. I preferred it that way, although a few bars are opened late in the area too, so music can be heard some nights.
I enjoyed having a mini market just around the corner, which I observed from the street window. It was helpful with getting fruit, bread, drinks, etc.
The apartment has new appliances, or they look like new. It is a large place (two bedrooms, a small living, the kitchen, the bathroom), and it is rectangular and long. As a result, there is more light in the end rooms.
Franco also helped me with a few other details. He is very efficient and always ready to help. It had a very pleasant stay and enjoyed full privacy in his apartment.
I want to express my gratitude to Franco and his family for being such great hosts!
