Concetta Studio Apartments by Holihomes

This is a very nice apartment but very difficult to find. Our taxi's app took us to the wrong address and my google maps indicated we were at the right location when it was nowhere the actual address. A good samaritan who lived in the area tried to help us but even she took forever to find it. The apartment is roomy and in a great location. Unfortunately the host are not at all helpful. Lots of promises but no follow through. They offered twice to arrange transport to and from the airport but never responded to my return messages. In addition, the hot water in the apartment quit working two days before we left. The host promised to come over the next day to check it out but never showed up.

A good choice if you're looking for clean, simple, budget priced accommodation a stone's throw from Valletta. The studio comes with a double bed and a sofa bed. There is a small separate kitchen. Facilities are basic but adequate. You have access to a roof terrace (shared). Location is ideal. You're in the heart of the 3 Cities but only 5 minutes' walk from the ferry terminal which takes you to Valletta in 10 minutes (weekly pass is 10 euros). There's a couple of convenience stores nearby for buying provisions. Plenty of good local restaurants. The owner is very approachable and helpful and is happy to arrange taxi connections (20 euros to the airport). If you're on a limited budget, you could do a great deal worse. I stayed a week and would happily book again.
