Ta' Marta Lodge

Location is fantastic property is good.

The spiral staircase it is hard to get your luggage up the stairs. Bed is quite hard.

Location is great

It was a bit dark but we stayed in the room downstairs. We suggest that a note close to the switch for hot water should be put or a note on the tabel as we missed it. We are not use to switching on for hot water in our country ;)

The location is very nice and in a cozy and quiet street

Low water pressure

The central location was very practical. The apartment is in the cellar of an old traditional town house so has bags of character and has been very carefully restored. As it is a cellar it stayed cool despite high outside temperatures, I didnt need to use the air con but found the fan very helpful. Having a washing machine was a real bonus I stayed 12 nights. When I had requests from the owners they were very responsive and helpful. We had a water outage in Victoria one day for about half a day and they brought me buckets of water for washing and toilet flush. The apartment is spacious and equipped with the things you need for a stay, very comfy sofa !

The flip side of the cellar being cool was that it was very dark. You need the lights on all the time whilst in the house, there is a very tiny enclosed courtyard with cafe style table and chairs which was lovely for coffee and drying washing but not comfortable to sit long. The Apartment feels damp. The electrics are not all working and the light switches are in unusual places. The internet was very temperamental it only worked if I was in the courtyard or sometimes in the kitchen and often simply there was no connection. I slso had no phone signal most of the time and had to go outside the Apartment to get a signal which was rather annoying. By far the biggest negative however was the noise of the neighbours. The property is in the middle of a residential area and what sound to be a multigenerational family live upstairs/ next door. There was a lot of yelling especially at weekends when it sounded like grandparents were there. It seemed angry and aggressive and was very unpleasant. If you want to be in the property during the day to avoid the heat like I did then this was going on in the background.
