Josephine's place is an absolute gem and Josephine is the nicest and most thoughtful host one could wish for. She prepared tasty sandwiches for our arrival and gave us lots of useful recommendations throughout our stay and even beyond. We travelled to Gozo after Mdina and were happy to visit places that she told us about, especially a small Maltese pizza place in a tiny neighbourhood that we would never have found by chance...
Living in the Silent City of Mdina is a very special experience. We really felt like locals when we stepped out of the apartment and into the medieval streets in the morning, fully aware that only a few tourists have the privilege to actually live there...
The apartment itself is even more beautiful than it seems in the pictures as many other reviewers have said. We stayed there mid February, wintertime, and with its old, genuine stone walls, the apartment is quite cold and a bit damp. But Josephine provides a good gas heater for the living room and a small, very effective, electric heater for the bedroom, so it's not that bad and the magnificent atmosphere makes more than up for it.
All in all, highly recommended!
Thank you Josephine!
