Legend has it that this space was used as a chapel but in most recent years it has housed several poker-games for the villagers of Birgu. The area which was used as a chapel has a hand carved arch making this house a true masterpiece of the era of the knights of St.John - if only the walls could talk!

The space can also accommodate another 2 people on a very comfortable sofa-bed. A total of 6 guests can enjoy this incredible house.

High speed internet also available An AC is available in the main Bedroom and living area, while fans are available all around the house. There is a flight of stairs to access the main bedroom.

Oct 3, 2022 Liked: Communication, location #### Birgu and Helen are lovely The property is an amazing 500 year old dwelling. It is conveniently located in the midst of a beautiful neighborhood and kind neighbors. It took us a few days to get used to the beds. They are made of springs, so if you are used to sleeping on a different kind of mattress, this can be challenging to the back. ##### Angela B.

Drap, wifi Très belle demeure, ds un quartier extra. Juste des petits soucis sur le fonctionnement de la maison.. Draps, wifi, dehumidificateur, branchements électrique . Mais nous y avons trouvé du confort. Merci pr le dépaysement. ##### Virginie G. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Monica Jul 16, 2020 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Good location The appartement is historically interesting. But to spend specially the nights there its not really comfortable. Humidity is to high and there is no chance to get it more less. But the location is nice! Birgu has a nice old town and to go to Valletta with fairy is really easy. ##### Monica
