We had a very nice overall experience with my wife and 7 and 9 years old childs around Christmas, enjoying Malta from Richard's house, typical from Malta and well located in Senglea, a nice and popular neighbourhood of the so-called 3 cities. It is also not far from Valletta via regular taxi boat or bus nearby. We we are able to easily explore the rest of Malta and Gozo from there. The balcony in one of the room upstairs has a fantastic view over the leisure and fishing port and city in the background.
