“Excellent accommodation in a good location.”
The accommodation was exactly as advertised - plenty of room, comfortable and everything that should work did. The location in Birgu was just off the main square and there were a few bars/restaurants close by, plus a couple of food shops for basic needs. Getting to Valletta over the Grand Harbour was straightforward by nearby ferry, small boats and bus. The hostess was pleasant and helpful, and was always available if needed. I liked the relative calm and quietness of Birgu as opposed to Valletta. I would happily stay here again.

Lovely apartment in the centre of Birgu! Perfect for exploring the three cities and Valetta. Right beside Birgus main square and close to ferry and water taxis. We loved spending the day in Valetta and coming home to the more relaxed neighbourhood of Birgu. Apartment is very spacious and was spotless on arrival. Some of the decor and furnishings are dated but we didn't mind as it had everything we needed and was very comfortable to stay in. Would recommend to anyone!

“Comfortable stay”
Everything in the apartment was thought out down to the smallest detail. Power connections, hairdryer, iron, water access, perfectly working air conditioning, and clean bed linen – all was well prepared and made the stay very comfortable. In addition, it is a very safe place for someone traveling alone. I highly recommend it to everyone.

The apartment is spacious, with two rooms and air conditioning in both. You cannot live in Malta without air conditioning. The location is right in the center of Birgu, with easy access to buses. The host is extremely available at any time

“Excellent Apartment in Great Location”
I've stayed here before, so I knew what to expect. It really has everything you need and is a minute's walk to the bus stop taking you into Valletta (or elsewhere if you wish). Maria was a great host, and waited for me in the family hardware shop next door.. The smart TV was too smart for me (as is usually the case). May be worth mentioning that the stairs up to the bedroom might be a little taxing for young children.

Lovely apartment in great location, yes a bit dated but that added to the charm. Close by to some great bars and restaurants and close to the bus stop to get you back out to the airport and Valeeta for connections across the country. Would stay here again

Everything was perfect. Apartment is very big and comfortable in the small square in Birgu. The owner Ms Maria it was very nice and helpful! I have in the room bottle of wine, water, and coffee. And the wine was very good. Thank you so much Maria,I hardly recommend this place for holiday in Birgu -Malta.
