This Airbnb is located in a convenient part of Valletta, particularly for Ft St Elmo. Be aware that to get up to the center of Valletta you will need to climb a hill.
Although the unit is charming in some ways, there are serious problems and I would not recommend staying here until they are resolved. You should be aware of the following:
-the unit is fairly dirty throughout, with dust on surfaces and floors and mold in the shower. There was a large white stain on the bedsheets
-there is an awful smell that comes from the inner courtyard, mostly a mildew smell but also feces at times. This smell pervades the back part of the apartment to include the main bedroom.
-the air conditioner in the main bedroom was not working during our stay, the hosts said they would send a technician but no one showed up. We wheeled in a portable AC unit from the other bedroom, but this meant we needed to open the window to the inner courtyard which contributed to the smell
-the shower and sink in the main bedroom’s bathroom drain very slowly
-you will not get cell reception or WiFi reception in the main bedroom
-the main bedroom door and bathroom door do not fully close
Be aware of the above before booking.
