Alison's place was great and well located on the NW edge of Valetta. A quick walk of 2-3 minutes into the city where there are a lot of bars and restaurants but also away from all of the noise in a quiet street. You can also walk under the city fortress wall to the north and have the beach right there as well. The apartment has everything you need and the AC was crucial in the summer heat of Valetta. The only issue I had is that the pillows were old and didn't offer support otherwise the apartment was great. Thanks Alison.
