Tifkira (The Memory)

"comodissimo alla città e dalla fermata del bus, che è vicinissima, si raggiunge facilmente qualsiasi luogo..Maria è eccezionale! Profumo di pulito e asciugamani morbidi e profumatissimi! Ho scelto questa posizione che alla fine, si è dimostrata uno dei posti più belli dell'isola con il suo contesto storico incorniciato dall'acqua del porto... Super!"

"nulla!"

"Casa antica nel centro di Birgu (Vittoriosa), a due passi dal capolinea dei bus 'Riche' e dall'imbarco del ferry per la Valletta. A Birgu ci sono alcuni minimarket dove fare la spesa, e qualche ristorante in centro, oltre a quelli sul lungomare. La proprietaria Maria è molto gentile e disponibile."

"la casa è davvero bellissima e piena di fascino, ma essendo antica avrebbe bisogno di un po' di manutenzione per valorizzarla appieno. L'ho segnalato direttamente a Maria, la proprietaria, che è stata super disponibile ad accogliere i miei suggerimenti."

"A beautiful, authentic and rustic place full of character. Everything about the stay felt special, and it really delivers if you’re looking for something real rather than a modern, generic apartment. The space is huge for a couple, which makes it feel even more relaxing. There’s also rooftop access, simple with just two chairs and a table, but we had drinks up there and it was really pleasant and private. The location is brilliant, we were delighted to realise that the ferry from Birgu to Valletta is literally at the end of the road, less than a 5-minute walk from the apartment, which made getting around incredibly easy. We’d seen reviews mentioning it could be cold, but that’s clearly been addressed, there’s extra bedding and two heaters, and it was extremely cosy during our stay. Overall, an amazing place. Don’t be put off by other reviews, this is an old building with charm, not a brand-new hotel, and that’s exactly what makes it so good."

"There were just a couple of small issues, the shower head broke and we didn’t receive a response at the time. The host has since explained they were in hospital, which we completely understand and appreciate, though having a backup contact or number in place would be helpful for situations like this. The water pressure was also a bit low, and there wasn’t quite enough hot water for a full bath. For an even better experience, it would be great to have a few thoughtful touches on arrival, bottled water in the fridge (especially as shops were closed and tap water isn’t recommended), a few tea bags with some milk, and slightly fresher bedding."

"We loved the vibe and how large was the space, we were impressed by the architecture and furniture."

"We were a bit cold in some rooms and some objects were a bit destroyed."

"The apartments exactly matched the photos. There was plenty of space for three people. Since we visited in winter, we turned on the heaters at night, and it was nice and warm. The area was beautiful, and everything was comfortable. There were two large terraces, perfect for sitting with a glass of wine in the evening."

"We weren't prepared for the Type G outlets and didn't bring an adapter, which made charging our laptops inconvenient. Now that we know, we'll definitely be prepared next time!"

"The uniqueness of the property and it's perfect location."

"Water flow for the bath, shower was fine."

"The place is magical, very authentic and full of character. The aircon was perfect, it was quiet and we had a lot of space. We loved it!"

"I would just recommend changing the shower head, that's all."

"It was a 3 story original town house with old style charm and character."

"Nothing not to like"

"Great location, in the old town. The old house was very 'Malta-like', and much bigger than you think! Great for 2 people."

"Nothing"

"Great location, really good value for price, perfect for a calm, romantic getaway for a couple. The rooftop terrace was very nice and the ambience of the interior is lovely."

"The mattress is pretty bouncy so when the person next to you turns you might feel it more than usual, and the water pressure is a bit low."
