It is conveniently located in the midst of a beautiful neighborhood and kind neighbors. It took us a few days to get used to the beds. They are made of springs, so if you are used to sleeping on a different kind of mattress, this can be challenging to the back. ##### Angela B.

Drap, wifi Très belle demeure, ds un quartier extra. Juste des petits soucis sur le fonctionnement de la maison.. Draps, wifi, dehumidificateur, branchements électrique . Mais nous y avons trouvé du confort. Merci pr le dépaysement. ##### Virginie G. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Monica 16 Jul 2020 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Good location The appartement is historically interesting. But to spend specially the nights there its not really comfortable. Humidity is to high and there is no chance to get it more less. But the location is nice! Birgu has a nice old town and to go to Valletta with fairy is really easy. ##### Monica ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Vincent Boutique Suites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valletta-Hotels-The-Vincent.h19082924.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hotel Excelsior](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Floriana-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-Excelsior.h1685894.Hotel-Information) > > [66 Saint Pauls & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valletta-Hotels-66-Saint-Pauls-Spa.h22209369.Hotel-Information) > > [The Phoenicia Malta - The Leading Hotels of the World](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Floriana-Hotels-The-Phoenicia-Malta.h518882.Hotel-Information) > > [Cerviola Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marsaskala-Hotels-Cerviola-Hotel.h8256075.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Blu Resort, Malta St. Julian's](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Julians-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Resort.h63558.Hotel-Information) > > [Cugo Gran Macina Malta](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Senglea-Hotels-Cugo-Gran-Macina-Grand-Harbour.h19771346.Hotel-Information) > > [Azur Hotel by ST Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gzira-Hotels-Azur-Hotel-By-ST-Hotels.h30653151.Hotel-Information) > > [The Preluna Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sliema-Hotels-The-Preluna-Hotel.h558176.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Harbour Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valletta-Hotels-Grand-Harbour-Hotel.h9837827.Hotel-Information) > > [AX The Saint John](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valletta-Hotels-AX-The-Saint-John.h18402665.Hotel-Information) > > [19 Rooms](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valletta-Hotels-19-Rooms.h19771178.Hotel-Information) > > [The Cumberland Hotel by NEU Collective](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valletta-Hotels-The-Cumberland-Hotel-By-NEU-Collective.h21949161.Hotel-Information) > > [The Gomerino Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valletta-Hotels-The-Gomerino-Hotel.h68601666.Hotel-Information) > > [1926 Le Soleil Hotel & SPA](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sliema-Hotels-1926-Hotel-SPA.h21308320.Hotel-Information) > > [The Embassy Valletta Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valletta-Hotels-The-Embassy-Valletta-Hotel.h36163882.Hotel-Information) > > [La Falconeria Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valletta-Hotels-La-Falconeria-Hotel.h16887244.Hotel-Information) > > [Ursulino Valletta](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valletta-Hotels-Ursulino-Valletta.h12286467.Hotel-Information) > > [Palais Le Brun](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valletta-Hotels-Palais-Le-Brun.h23544475.Hotel-Information) > > [Valletta G-House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valletta-Hotels-Valletta-G-House.h24902452.Hotel-Information) > > [Solana Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mellieha-Hotels-Solana-Hotel-Spa.h1384076.Hotel-Information) > > [Palazzo Consiglia - IK Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valletta-Hotels-Palazzo-Consiglia.h13055549.Hotel-Information) > > [Ramla Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mellieha-Hotels-Ramla-Bay-Resort.h897060.Hotel-Information) > > [Palazzo Castagna](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ghaxaq-Hotels-Palazzo-Castagna.h91725194.Hotel-Information) > > [Iniala Harbour House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valletta-Hotels-Iniala-Harbour-House.h46973445.Hotel-Information) > > [Corinthia St George's Bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Julians-Hotels-Corinthia-St-Georges-Bay.h9122.Hotel-Information) > > [The Barrister](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valletta-Hotels-The-Barrister-Hotel.h23957939.Hotel-Information) > > [Barrakka Suites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valletta-Hotels-Barrakka-Suites.h8132086.Hotel-Information) > > [Domus Zamittello](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valletta-Hotels-Domus-Zamittello.h21881114.Hotel-Information) > > [Palazzo Rosaria Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valletta-Hotels-Palazzo-Rosaria-Boutique-Hotel.h37636311.Hotel-Information)
