This apartment itself was very nice, just lacking one thing-communication. It was on the top floor of a residential area, a block away from the bay. There are also several bus stops close by, which is your only public transportation option in Malta. It was clean, new and modern, the only complaint about the apartment itself is the linens-they were made from a material I can't even identify and actually kept all of us awake to the point where we slept on beach towels we purchased. Never felt anything like it. The host left a few snacks which was thoughtful.
Now for the bad-there was no communication at all until the hosts realized their review might be negative, then it got worse. Prior to coming, Sabrina asked me for a number to text check-in instructions. Not only did I never get a text but I updated her when I landed and also when I got off the bus, with absolutely no response. Finally I called and was given the code to the box and told to message with any further questions. Fifteen minutes later I did via whatsapp, regular text and calling with no response at all, ever. We went all 4 days with no hot water-the sea itself was warmer than our showers. Then, the day prior to leaving, Sabrina's husband started calling me non-stop. I answered and told him we were leaving very early the next morning and it was too late to really do anything useful so I just wanted to relax on my last day. He continued to call so much that I had to literally block the phone numbers. Such an awful and honestly, quite disturbing experience. Never saw their faces.
