I will start first with the good things:
- the apartment is located in a quiet and cozy bay. It is true, there are no shops nearby, but for us, that wasn’t a problem, we went on the bus to the nearest supermarket
- the apartment is big and easily can accommodate one couple or 2 persons and we also liked the authenticity of the place, Maltese-like.
- the communication with Louise went very smoothly, she was very nice, and let us do the check-in early to leave our bags.
There were also some weak points, and from my point of view, really big ones, that’s why I only give it 2 stars:
- the place needs an urgent renovation. When we first entered the apartment we were hit by the high humidity and the smell of mould. At night it was hard to breathe because of it, and the paint on the walls was falling off. We had to move several times our luggage because they were full of falling paint. This is a pretty serious thing, for a person with asthma this could easily turn into an asthma attack. Also, you can easily observe the mould on the walls, and it was plenty.
- the place is clean only on the surface, if you dared to move something from its place it was at your own risk. In the living room was an aromatherapy dispenser, that works with water and oils, when I opened it to check if it had water, it was full of mold, and probably had its last cleaning months ago.
I wrote all of this so anyone can make choice accordingly. Maybe for other guests, this is ok, but for us wasn’t. If I knew all of this I wouldn’t rent the place, because we really couldn’t rest at night.
