Located between Floriana and Msida is the coastal town of Pieta. Pieta is a very small town consisting of 2 types of properties. Most of the property in Pieta is located on the seafront with a view of the Marina or Valletta's Bastions. The rest is in the side streets behind the main road. It's a fairly old town, one of Malta's first.  Most of the property in Pieta has not been renovated recently and tend to be rather small. Like Msida this is a great location for a tight budget. Where ever you are in Pieta its not more than a 5 minute walk to a bus stop which is a 20 minute ride to St.Julians or 15 minutes to the busy streets of Sliema.
