Had an ok stay with some mixed feelings. Our stay was all in all positive although we experienced some smaller issues. The good: - Location is great in the central Valletta on a pedestrian street. It was really easy to get there from the Airport (with the bus). - Our hosts were really nice and positive. Never met them personally but communication was really good and the team onsite friendly and extremely helpful. - The apartment is new / newish and exactly as in the photos. Well appointed with kitchen utensils, hair dryer, iron, washing machine etc. - There was a nice welcome set (fruits, milk, coffee etc.) - Very good information set about the services and restaurants in the vicinity All in all we had a nice stay and some smaller issues didn't spoil our stay. To mention a few downsides: - The biggest was actually our own fault in the sense that we didn't pay attention that the apartment is missing A/C. There was a heat wave with around 35C for 4 days and even during the night it was around 30C in the apartment. Thus it was too hot to sleep well. Thus can't recommend the apartment during the hottest summer time, otherwise yes - The dishwasher was broken. It also had already some mold (or such) inside. By check-in no one said anything although they knew about it. Since we didn't cook, hand washing a few breakfast dishes wasn't an issue for us - The neighbours have a strange habit of depositing their trash for a while in the staircase before deposing of them. Thus from the front door to the apartment door (1st floor) there's a very unpleasent smell. Our hosts are naturally not to blame for this. - In the back there's a small inner courtyard which is good since there's also a window in the second bedroom and the bathroom. However the small courtyard had some pot plants that had a murky (mold?) smell to them that came into the bedroom. Also that was a good breeding ground for some insects and was probably the reason that my daughter got towards the end of the stay several insect bites during 2 nights. - And there were cockroaches. That's of course typical in a warm country. We killed 1-2 each day but they kept on coming. We mainly saw then in the bathroom and the kitchen. Luckily they are harmless and we tried not to pay attention. - When we came back on the last evening, a section of the bathroom ceiling had come down. The boiler above the ceiling had started leaking and had soaked some of the panels until they were so wet and heavy that they came down. Sounds like a long list but all really minor things. Our host even offered to send a technician to check the dish washer. From the attention to detail it was obvious that the apartment was well-maintained. I guess we were just unlucky. Might...
