Had a wonderful trip to Malta, and staying with Mariella made it a very pleasant experience. The apartment is very well located as a base for exploration, close to the ferry to Valletta and with excellent bus connections. I was only in Malta for a very, very short amount of time, and Mariella had excellent suggestions of how I could maximize my time and see as much as possible without feeling too frantic. I followed her advice and got an excellent overview. The room itself was the front room with postcard views of the bay -- just stunning! All in all, a very comfortable stay.
