Gianluca and his father Lino are great hosts, even after arriving around 1am Lino took the time to show us around the house fully, chatting and pointing out where everything was and showing us various highlights of the Valletta that can be seen from the house.
The house itself is a beautiful and very large town house spread over 3 floors, we were a group of 6 and there was never a time where we felt there wasn't enough room, in fact sometimes we lost each other! It's a really, really lovely place which still has plenty of character and original features and the views are stunning, especially from the large roof terrace but equally good from the living/dining room.
We found everything we needed in the house, there are 3 shower rooms with toilets, plenty of living/communal areas and a large roof terrace with the most stunning views over the Barraka gardens and the rest of Valletta as well as fort St Angelo etc. The tourists flock to the Barraka gardens to look at the views, but they are looking at Lino and Gianluca's house, in my mind the best views are from the roof terrace of the house looking across to Valletta,
