Where to start? Ugne's place is a fantastic place to stay for anyone considering a trip to Malta. Sliema is the perfect base from which to explore the whole island. It is located just 10 minutes from Valetta by ferry (which is cheap and regular), which you can catch just 2 minutes' walk away from Ugne's place. Where the ferry docks also happens to be where all the cruises around the island dock and the sightseeing bus stops on its morning pick-up route, so you really couldn't be better placed to see all of Malta. There are also plenty of bars and restaurants in Sliema and the nearby neighbourhoods, so you won't go hungry or thirsty. I should also note that while the apartment is close to the busy waterfront, the immediate area it is situated in is very peaceful.
The apartment itself is a lovingly restored traditional Maltese townhouse, with beautifully designed apartments. The apartment itself was very clean and comfortable, with an excellent kitchenette/dining space (important for us as we do like to cook sometimes on holiday!) and lovely bay window space off the bedroom.
Our host Ugne was great, very communicative and eager to help. Getting to her place from the airport was very easy with her directions and check in was a breeze.
All in all, highly recommended!
