I spent 9 days in the perfectly situated Lloyd House, just beside the upper barrakka gardens and very close to the city gate and bus terminal. The studio and all other flats are very recently rennovated and it is a nice mix of old elements (typcial balconies, floors) and modern furniture. I arrived late in the evening and Robert welcomed me. In fridge I found breakfast for the next morning, some beer and wine and there is a coffee machine. Robert is from Malta, plus he has worked many years for the Malta Tourism Office abroad, so can suggest you many things to do. Together with his wife and their Labrador dog they live in the top floor of the Lloyd house and are always reachable if you wld need something. Definetely worth it. Enjoy:-)
