Other things to note:
The property has just been completely refurbished but all the original heritage features have been kept and painstakingly restored. Beautiful vaulted ceilings. Lovely honey-coloured Maltese limestone. Although at street level the accomodation offers good privacy with double glazing in window and reflective glass. On ground floor you will find the main room with bedroom, kitchen and dining areas. At the back you'll find the bathroom which leads downstairs to the SPA and jacuzzi cave.
It is good for guests to know that this home is a restored historic 500 year old building that shows the traditional Maltese architecture and the beauty of the exposed Maltese stone and vaulted ceilings. Due to the porous and humid nature of Maltese globigerina limestone and the way these buildings were constructed hundreds of years ago, the honey-coloured stone walls tend to flake a little. Through the stay expect to see some tiny flakes here and there. It's part of the experience of living in an authentic Maltese townhouse in Valletta.
During the office hours when guests are usually away on siteseeing, cars are usually parked in front of the accommodation. So seaviews can be a bit disrupted by this. However, in the late afternoons and evenings when guests are back from site-seeing, one can sit outside next to the door, or as Maltese tradition goes: temporarlily take a chair and coffee table outside next to the bastion parapet and enjoy the harbour views at sunset.
Alternatively, after a long day of site-seeing go down to the SPA cave and refresh yourself in the inground jacuzzi (inground hot tub). Unwind, forget time and relax. A real wellness experience.
