The apartment is very clean and exactly as described and shown in the listing. Almost everything you need is there and the AC is something you'll love when you're staying in Malta. This apartment has one in the living room and bedroom. The internal yard shouldn't be the reason for you to book this apartment, at times it has a very unpleasant smell, many mosquitoes and not exactly the best view, for us this wasn't a big deal, since we didn't intend to spend timAe there anyway. We didn't have any problems during our stay, so contacting our host was unnecessary. Rudolph was very nice and made sure everything was okay during check-in. We very much enjoyed Malta and definitely plan on going back here in the future and possibly rent this apartment again.
