Claude’s apartment is in a beautifully restored old building right in the heart of the oldest area of Victoria on Gozo. It is really well equipped, comfortable and tastefully decorated. Everything in the apartment is in good condition and very clean (crockery, cutlery, saucepans etc.) and the bed is really comfortable. There is a washing machine/dryer and also a folding airer/drying rack, which is really handy when you’re staying for a few days or more.
The area is really quiet and close to everything - good cafes (Bunna Coffee on the main street became our morning coffee spot), restaurants and historical sites to visit. And when you want to visit places that are too far away to walk, then there are buses that go to almost every area of the island from the bus depot, which is a short walk from the apartment.
Claude provided some basic food items to get us started (milk, bacon, eggs, cheese and biscuits), which is a very thoughtful and generous gesture (we had a delicious bacon and cheese omelette for breakfast). Claude was quick to respond to our messages, gave us helpful suggestions of places to visit, and he took time to show us the immediate area around the apartment, to help us get our bearings.
We would happily stay at Claude’s again, should we revisit Gozo.
