First time in Malta
Apartment was a bit damp-smelling (especially the bathroom), did not realize it was like a semi-basement, but we also know now how bad the humidity is here, so this was actually quite normal. Directions from airport were a bit confusing and we had gotten in late (9:30pm) so host was not very happy about that but there was nothing we could do. We finally found the place with our Uber (after almost a year of living in Malta we now realize how problematic addresses can sometimes be), host’s wife greeted us and handled the rest of our stay. She was very nice. Overall a nice place, just not an awful lot of sunlight and somewhat damp-smelling.

Our apartment is in a quite respectable area. We offer heaters, for the colder months.

Spacious and bright apartment
Me and my friend stayed at this apartment for one week. Because of the 15-20 min. distance to St. Julian's we never needed to rent any transport. When we needed anything (toaster, dishwashing liquid) Jeff, the very friendly host, was at our door right away. All in all, a wonderful stay in St. Julian's.

Stay in Malta 2023
We were delighted with this apartment well located not far from Spinola Bay where it is possible to take the bus to almost all places in Malta. The apartment was comfortable and especially very cool during the heat wave! The owner was very efficient and friendly. To sum up, we had a very nice holiday in Malta and recommend this accommodation to future holidaymakers.

Perfect!!
The house was a great location, especially for those who are going to the Gateway school for an exchange program. The owners were super helpful and friendly and responded quickly to a small plumbing issue we had. The house is exactly as advertised and had everything we needed for a two month stay.

Great time!
Eventhough we had some slight issues with the sink and the bathroom sink, the apartment was very good and the communication with the hosts as well. The hill leading up to the apartment is a bit tough, but a little extra training of the legs doesn’t hurt anyone :)

spacious apartment but many negative points
very spacious apartment, but many negative points: there is clearly not enough water for 4 normal showers, the last one to shower lacks hot water and has almost only a trickle of water. Regarding cleanliness, the apartment was left with dead cockroaches in the bedrooms and bathrooms. The fans were encrusted with mold, one of them even gave off a burning smell. Obviously the pots and pans had been encrusted with grease for years I think, not to mention the amount of dust on the floor. Moreover, the apartment was very humid, so it was difficult to dry things, especially since there are very few possibilities for ventilation. Especially since there is a room without no window at all, which made the nights quite sultry. Regarding the terrace, even if it allowed us to enjoy the outdoors a little, the height of the walls can become stuffy, because the air does not pass and the vegetation surrounding the terrace takes up space on the already not very big. In addition, we realized that the owners' air conditioning was dripping on our terrace. Because yes indeed, the owners live just above the apartment for rent (something that was not specified in the ad.) It was therefore not very pleasant to receive their water evacuation from their air conditioning on our terrace. In addition, communication with the owners is also to be reviewed, a sheet was missing when we arrived at 12 noon. We immediately sent her a message to resolve this sheet problem, she replied to us in the evening at 11 p.m. telling us that she would drop off the sheet for us only the next day, so remember, the owners live just above the hotel. apartment in question. Not to mention that we hear a lot of noise from them, in the morning from 7:30 am, early enough to be woken up on vacation! In addition, the announcement told us that we were 10-15 minutes from the beaches, clubs etc. I clearly find the time indicated wrong, the sandy beaches are too far to walk there, we had to go there by uber, which took almost 15 minutes by car and not on foot! concerning the bars and clubs, I would say that we are 20-25 min on foot. So I found the ad quite misleading.

A pochi minuti dal centro di San Giuliano, l’unico punto dolente è stata la pulizia e la presenza di 5/6 scarafaggi

Prima appartement!
Tussen 31 juli en 8 augustus hebben wij (leeftijd: 19 en 21) met 3 personen een prima verblijf gehad in San Gwan. Met 10 minuten lopen naar Spinola Bay ben je al op de boulevard. Vanuit daar kun je alle richtingen op met de bus. In het appartement werkte de 3 ventilatoren goed en er was voldoende ruimte. Slaapcomfort van het tweepersoonsbed was ook goed, daarentegen sliep een van de eenpersoonsbedden slecht, de veren kwamen daar door het matras heen. Naast het matras merkten we bij aankomst ook dat het bestek en de borden vies waren, dit kwam weliswaar door de vorige bewoners, maar was dus niet gecontroleerd. Daarnaast hebben we géén vaatwasser gevonden terwijl deze wel bij de voorzieningen stond. We misten ook iets van een stofzuiger of een bezem, het is toch fijn om het appartement zelf schoon te kunnen houden. Al met al een prima appartement om een week in te verblijven, ondanks een paar mankementjes toch zeker een aanrader om te kunnen genieten van het heerlijke Malta!

Très bon séjour à St Julians
Nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans cette location. Très calme, confortable et qui correspond bien aux photos. L'appartement se trouve au sous sol, il n'y a pas de vue sur l'extérieur mais la petite terrasse est bien agréable. Il est bien placé par rapport au centre ce qui permet de s'y rendre à pied ( 10 à 15 minutes de marche). Les propriétaires sont sympathiques et serviables mais très discrets. Je recommande sans problème cette location.

Très bon séjour!
L’appartement était propre et très bien situé à 10mn du centre de St Julians, Jeff et sa famille sont très gentil et accueillant! Nous avons passés un agréable séjour. Le seul petit bémol je dirais est la montée pour rejoindre la rue où se situe l’appartement qui est très raide!!!

Comfortable apartment
The house is very beautiful, it is a bright basement, ventilated and cool. It was clean and in good condition, and it has everything it needs to spend a holiday. The kitchen is new and clean. We only met two small problems, one with the hot water that did not come out immediately and then the presence of cockroaches, in a week we found 4 in the house. There are two bedrooms, one with a double bed and the other with two single loungers we have joined. Both rooms were large enough. The one with the two sunbeds opens onto a balcony, illuminated but where unfortunately the sun does not reach and so it is difficult to dry towels and bathing suits. The hosts, Jeff and Mariella who live in the house above, are very friendly and helped us in any way they could give us many tips. The house is about 5 minutes from Paceville with the car. I still thank Jeff and Mariella for the availability, and I recommend book this beautiful apartment at a good price!
