The apartment is nicely furnished. It has multiple live plants that is a great touch. The area is also quite pleasant and quiet. 15-20 mins walk to a ferry that will take you to Valletta. A few things to keep in mind:
1. We stayed in there during early December. For the first two days it was windy outside and rained a great deal. The floor is tiled and it becomes very cold very quickly. There is air conditioner that is used as a heater, but it takes a lot of time to get the floor warmer with it. And as you are outside most of the time, that’s just not possible. Hence, make sure to bring warm socks with you.
2) There is no washing machine in the apartment. Two washing machines and 2 dryers are available on the basement floor. You’ll need 1 and 2 euro coins to start the machines and the process is a bit cumbersome, because when you drop a coin you start a timer that has nothing to do with the programs on the washing machines. If you dropped 2 euros for 1 hour of use, then spent 5 mins putting the clothes and liquids in, then your 1 hour timer will finish before 1 hour washing cycle. If you started a dryer for 2 hours, but then came in 2 hours and 10 mins, then the door will be locked and you need to put 1 euro just to open the door. I think we did all kind of mistakes you could think of while washing our clothes, including putting 2 euro coin into a dryer instead of a washing machine. I would guess the reason for all this is to avoid situations when someone is washing one t-shirt for 2 hours, that I totally support. But the way it was implemented is not great.
Lastly, I got an impression that the management is still trying to figure out how to run this business on Airbnb. We needed to leave Malta earlier and I reduced the stay from 8 nights to 7. The cancellation policy said that it will be ‘50% refund for the night that remain 24 hours after you cancel’ that I reasoned also applied to amends. But a week after the change we are still figuring out how it should be processed. The request is still pending approval / rejection. That’s why I always prefer hotels to rent apartments.
