Maria is fabulous. Valletta is fabulous. There is no bad location in valletta I imagine as it is such a small place. The steps outside made arrival difficult with 2 suitcase a buggy a car seat and 2 children to mind. About 100 steps. Maria had said to go to the top of the steps but I could only find the bottom of them so everything got dragged up the steps. The main door opens into a teeny tiny entrance and very narrow hall down more steps with no window and no lights. We were allowed leave bags in early which was very helpful and Maria had left a bottle of wine for us which was lovely. When we came back at 3 there were fresh towels and lovely sheets. Lovely spacious basement apartments t. The biggest issue is the damp. The place was so damp your sheets were wet at night and my daughter developed a cough. The kitchen presses nearly knocked you off your feet from the smell of damp when you opened them and the walls are black with the damp in parts. The bathroom has a large amount of mold there was no hot water on the last morning for a shower and the floor was so dirty that my feet went black after being there 5 minutes. If the damp was not there and the floor was cleaned and hot water and a new light bulb....this place would have been a nice place to stay. Very very spacious for our group of 5. However as it was I am embarrassed and upset to have stayed here and glad we were only there one night. The second night was really hard to stay. Maria has been fabulous with her communication and has said she would go and check out the issues. This was my first time using air bnb and do not feel I will likely do it again based on this stay. Enjoy your trip where you stay
