Andre went above and beyond anything you could expect a host to be! I was coming to Malta to support a friend of mine, Ira Losco, who was competing in the Maltese selection for the Eurovision Song Contest, which I had mentioned to Andre, pry to me arrival. Unfortunately Andre couldn't personally be there to greet me as he was in France and so he sent his father along, who was very friendly and and helpful, showing me how everything worked. They had provided tea, coffee, water, juice, beer, and if that wasn't enough, also a bottle of wine, biscuits and chocolate and a printed out picture of my friend Ira, wishing her good luck for the contest and a personal welcome card for me!
I felt really touched that Andre would go to all that trouble to make me welcomed.
As for the apartment itself, what can I say, it's everything and more that you see in the pictures, it's quirky, homely, very cosy, and spotlessly clean. They have put so much love into making it as pleasurable stay for the guest as possible. The only thing was it was a bit smaller than I had imagined, but that is not a criticism, it was maybe just my expectations, but otherwise it was perfect, and in a great location, very central and yet not noisy .
I only stayed for 3 nights (I would loved to stay longer). Andre flew back to Malta the night before I was leaving and took the trouble of coming to the airport in the morning to meet me because he said he makes a point of meeting all his guests personally . He bought me a souvenir chocolate from Malta as a farewell gift!
Maybe I shouldn't have given such a good review as it may be difficult to book this apartment next time I go to Malta.
