I would like to begin by saying that my partner and I travel a lot, and almost exclusively stay at airbnbs. We’ve had a range of experiences, of which most have been good. Our time at Jessica’s would definitely rate as one of the very best experiences we have had, both from the perspective of the suitability and comfort of the space, and the helpfulness of the host.
Although quirky (the low doorways caught us out once or twice), the space was very comfortable and full of character and style. It was clear that Jessica has been meticulous in creating a comfortable and stylish space. Throughout a stay of almost 3 weeks, we enjoyed returning each day, to the place that felt like our Malta ‘home’.
Jessica was constantly in touch, responding quickly to any questions we had and providing great insights and suggestions to our queries.
We loved the location too! Within 30 meters, there’s a local store selling pretty much everything you would need during your stay, as well as ‘Sally Port’, a small pizzeria selling simple fare from morning until late at night. At the end of each day, we joined the locals swimming at off the rocks off Boat st. (2 min walk) and at the opposite end of St Dominic st (7 min walk), which we preferred due to the calmer waters and afternoon shade. The Sliema ferry dock was just around the corner (7 min walk) giving us easy, cheap access to Sliema across the bay.
We had a car for part of our stay, and although parking right near the accommodation is limited and there is a charge for parking in Valletta during certain times, we found that parking on boat st (2 min walk) over night was a convenient and free solution, in addition to finding parking on our doorstep when we needed to.
Staying at Jessica’s was one of those experiences that affirmed why it is we love airbnb as our preferred accommodation choice.
