    The studio being just across a church, bells were somehow annoying

    Host was super responsive, studio was tidy, location outside from Valletta, which offered different point of view and peaceful location

    The apartment is in a beautiful, historic neighborhood with classic Maltese architecture. It had everything we needed for our three-night stay and was super clean. The staff were very helpful and responsive. They let us check in early and gave us options for dropping off our bags after checkout. The pdf guide they shared was super useful and covered everything we needed to know. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this place to others.

    One thing to keep in mind is that the apartment is located across from a church, so bells might wake you up in the morning. But we didn't mind them, and actually found them pleasant. I guess some people might have an issue with that, so keep in mind.

    We really loved everything! Birgu is a beautiful city, very well connected to other places. The apartment was very nice, and had everything we needed. A gorgeous view from the balcony was just a cherry on top. Also, the staff was so nice and helpful. I would love to return one day.

    Morning light through the bathroom window into the studio, if you like a dark room. Perhaps a blind could be installed.

    The location was great - quiet street in Birgu which was a few minutes from the ferry services to Valetta. The balcony in our room made it all feel very local; it was wonderful to observe the procession outside the church on Sunday. The host was super accommodating with an early check in and leaving our luggage after we checked out, as well as responding quickly to any of our questions. Highly recommend if you want to stay nearby Valetta but get a slightly quieter and local environment.

    The main negative aspect for us was the noise. The soundproofing was not good, that means that we could hear the steps of the neigbours above us. The church across the street rang every morning at 8:00 am, which was not that bad. Sadly above us was a family with a child, and the child was crying for like a 30 minutes every morning. (After the bell rang.) You should be prepared, that the sleep schedule is from 22:00 till 8:00. Besides this everything was really amazing, i can really recommend the place.

    The location is beautiful and calm, if you wake up before 8 am. The staff is really nice and they bring every workday new towels. The room is quite small with its 20-25m², but it was okay. You dont have to hold on to your key, becouse they send you an email which contain a code, which could be used to open the main entrance and your room. The kitchen doesnt contain an oven, neither a microwave, but it contains the necessary tools for a 2-4 person meal. The public transport is quite good over there, but you always have to go to Valetta to transfer to other buses. On the main square there is an amazing backery which name is Champ Pastizzeria, for breakfast there are a lot of amazing and cheap food.

    Nothing. Everything was perfect. The only thing is that the closest supermarket is at around 1,5km but Bolt delivery is available.

    Great location (just a minute away from the ferry which goes to Valetta and from bus stop). The studio is in a beautiful historical building. I stayed there 5 days and felt very confortable in the studio, it has everything needed (kitchen, iron, confortable bed, etc). Great host who was very available and answered my messages quickly. I will stay again there for my next trip. :)
