The location - it's not in Valletta but definitely not far from it. Airport bus just downstairs and buses to Valletta is just within a few minutes walk. Restaurants are within walking distance also.
Catherine is a caring and friendly host. Indeed, she is my Maltese language teacher! I learn a few Maltese from her and that's useful. The breakfast is simple but GOOD, with a variety of fruit and drinks.
The shared dining room is a perfect place to relax and share your Maltese experience with Catherine or other travelers.
An excellent escape from the big chain hotel.
