Staying at Chris' place was an amazing experience!
The Location was perfect, only a few minutes walk to the bus stop, local shop and ferry to Valletta. We were also blown away by how peaceful it was, we sat out on the terrace most nights and it was almost silent.
The house its self is situated off of the road so there is very little street noise. The house was far bigger than we expected (technically 7 stories) with a total of 66 steps so bare this in mind if you aren't very mobile however we got used to the steps after a couple of days. All of the rooms were spacious with lots of room to hang clothes etc.
Bare in mind there is no AirCon so it did get very warm (especially at night) however there are half a dozen tall fans around the house that tske the edge off a bit. As the building is so old sometimes you can hear the neighbours mumbling through the walls but, again, we got used to this after a few days.
We also weren't aware that the tap water isn't very nice to drink so we definitely reccomend picking up a 6 pack of 2L bottles of water for about €2.50 at any shop.
Sylvana (the cleaner) was an amazing help and a lovely person. Our flight landed early in the morning so she cleaned the apartment at 7am for us so we didn't have to wait to check in.
We would stay here again in a heart beat and we would absolutely reccomend this place to anyone who likes to take a more 'local' approach when they're abroad. Thank you for having us ❤
