Mario is a great host!! Firstly our plane was late and we ended up getting to the apartment around 1am instead of 11pm but Mario welcomed us with a smile and few basic information to start our stay as well as giving us the internet password straight away - which was very helpful for planning our first day on Malta as he told us which app to download to make the most of the public transport. Next day Mario brought us beach towels as we didn't have our own and also gave us some more in depth information about the area and places worth visiting. He encouraged us to visit Mdina for which we are really grateful as it wasn't on our initial to do list but was most definitely worth seeing.
As for the apartment it is nice and spacious. It is situated right at the Spinola bus station which we found to be the start point of every our trip including Valletta, Sliema, Bugibba, Ghajn Tuffieha beach Mdina and airport!! We were also close to some Vegan food places like: Juuls Kitchen - literally 5min away from the apartment, Naar RestoBar and Good Earth Shop - 10min away, and the local DR.Juice for our breakfasts - 2min away!!
We definitely recommend this location if you are first time in Malta as it was soo easy to move around from there as well as if you want to see mainly the east coast.
Thanks again Mario:)))
