The Spanish Knights Inn is the best airbnb experience I've had, and that's saying something. What gets me most is the amazing hospitality showed by the host and her family - they went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and taken care of. They even gave my son a small gift on our last morning, as they were helping us get to the taxi stand to head to the airport.
First off, the location - it cannot be beat. Staying in the heart of the castle was amazing and lead us to spend quality time wandering Old Town every day. To be a one minute walk from the Street of Knights was amazing, so close to the Grandmaster Palace. I cannot imagine a neater place to stay. There's an excellent cafe just down the hill (we ate breakfast there every morning) and the entrance to the museum is a quick 5 minute walk. We were able to come back to the house regularly to drop off our souvenirs and use the WC before going on our next adventure.
Second, the accommodations were perfect. The courtyard is amazing (though there were plenty of mosquitoes trying to ruin my good mood). There's a washing machine on the 2nd floor (not connected to the first floor inside) and clothes lines on the roof. Even doing laundry was an enjoyable activity in this beautiful house. The main floor is beautiful and I wish I'd gotten more pictures of the inside before we had our stuff all over. The dining area is charming and the kitchen is modern - the perfect mix of old and new.
Third, I cannot say nicer things about our host and her family. Her son was there to meet us where the cab dropped us off at check-in, despite the late hour. When we couldn't get the door open the next day they were quick to show up and help us figure out using the key. And they showed up at checkout with a stuffed animal for my son and helped us catch our cab back to the airport. Their response times were prompt and they truly cared about giving us a great stay. I would absolutely stay here again! Well worth the money spent!
