We stayed one week in Malta in the traditional townhouse. First of all the location of the house is great, ca. 7 minutes walking to the busstation and ca. 9 minutes to the ferry stop of the three cities which stops in Valetta very close to the lift of Upper Baraka Gardens.
The house is nice and as described, you have to be aware that it has this narrow stairs inside as shown on the picture between floor of the sleepingroom and floor of living room. To carry heavy things like bottles or full bags can be a bit difficult for elder people.
Furniture is nice, functional and the bathroom is basic. Unfortunately does not have a plug inside bathroom.
The terrace is definitely the highlight and sitting there watching the sea and ferries/boats coming and leaving is just perfect in the morning or the night. Neighbours are friendly and the house is in a residential area. Shopping can be done for basic food, drinks, etc in small minimarkets or private shops which close usually between 2 p.m. to 4.p.m. and then ca. 18.30 p.m. Restaurants are available in summer along the promenade of Senglea.
Communication was fast and precise, transfers organised for us were very comfortable.
All in all really recommendable, maybe better suitable for 2 persons than for more.
