We were met by Claudette's friend Tessie who made us feel very welcome. The apartment was just as described and ideal for our visit. It was a short and beautiful walk down the Mall (a tree lined pedestrian Boulevard) to the main gates into Valletta or to the main bus terminal to anywhere on the island. We had rented a car and there was free parking right across the street. The apartment had all the facilities and was very comfortable, best of all it has AC as the temperatures were in the low 30's C while we were there. We would book this apartment again without question.
