When we said we were arriving by air, Grazio offered to collect us for 20 euros which was excellent value as he told us about the area as we travelled, and drove round to show us where to get the ferry etc and gave us a lovely introduction to Valletta.
The apartment has a lovely view of the old buildings the other side of the harbour from the kitchen (not shown in Airbnb photos).
Going through the front door, you are in the main living area ... the kitchen dining area is to your left and the sitting area straight ahead of you. The room has lots of nice touches like an old stone trough with plants in it ... and for our stay even Halloween decorations and a bowl of sweets for any children who called! How's that for a welcome!
The kitchen is very well equipped, with kettle and Espresso coffee machine, sandwich toaster, microwave, modern hob, oven, plenty of nice pans etc. - and a dishwasher! All immaculately clean. There is a nice dining table with a protective glass top so you don't have to worry about spoiling it.
The seating area has comfortable seating, and a television, DVD player, WiFi and a thing labelled Android which seemed to allow you to use the the TV as a tablet. There are cupboards with ample space for your stuff.
The bathroom is gorgeous (the photos don't do it justice) and there are ample towels and both a washing machine and a tumble dryer. Again everything is very clean and fresh-looking.
There is a double bedroom (which we didn't use - but it seemed nice and the bed felt comfortable), and there was space for your stuff in there.
The second bedroom has comfortable (but mildly squeaky) twin beds, two large wardrobes, and a desk and chair.
The only (very slight) downside is that windows of both bedroom open into a sort of communal area at the back - if you look at Triq il-Genista, Kalkara, Malta on Google, you will see a 'hole' next to the circular one in the block of apartments ... I think that's what the windows look onto. Since people occasionally go back and forth past the windows, there wasn't total privacy, but it IS a ground level apartment and there are good blinds so this wasn't a problem.
This really is an outstanding apartment, so carefully arranged for your enjoyment and with such a friendly host.
To get to the waterfront for the ferries you can go down through the Foss Birgu which makes a lovely walk and takes only a short walk. The bus stop is very close. Get the Tallinja app for the bus times.
